Connor Hate Club

[vampmogs]

Hey everyone!

Now it might be just me, but I cannot stand Connor. I find him the most annoying character in both Ats and Btvs and struggle to watch the screen without wanting to hit him. I could barley tolerate him when he was brought back in Origins but couldn't tolerate him whatsoever in s3 or s4.

There are many reasons why I hate Connor. The first being what he did to Angel in Benediction by sinking him to the bottom of the ocean. Not only did he ignore everything Angel said but he the malice in his actions was far worse than simple vengeance.

The second being how irritatingly stupid he was concerning the whole Cordelia affair. Firstly, was it not so painfully obvious that Cordy was acting extremely evil and against everything Connor knew she stood for? Oh yeah... Angel and the gang are evil and Cordy, the virgin killer, is a radiant saint? Who would seriously be dumb enough to fall for this?

I hate him for allowing the virgin to be killed, and I hate that he knew Jasmine was killing people all along and yet allowed it to happen so that he could finally be happy. I hated that he knew what Jasmine was and yet turned on his father and his friends without being under her thrall.

I just found the kid to be a creep.. and not in the cool way (if such a thing is possible) as for example the scene of the fourth episode of s4 when he saves that family from the vampire. The way he stares at them through the window and creepily says "nice hate" just unnerves me.

Basically my feelings towards Connor can be summed up in one line;

ANGELUS: Twirp really gives me the creeps...

LET THE CONNOR HATE BEGIN!

I know how you feel Conner was a spoilt little brat, after everything angel did and would do for him. I felt so sorry for angel when he saw cordy and conner together i couldnt believe it, but we didnt know cordy was evil then. I didnt mind him in not fade away when he actually helped angel, but he was different then. I was so glad when he was put out of the show!! I hated him in all the time he was in it except s5 when he changed he seemed to actually care about angel, and omg i just remembered when he was going to blow all them people up, ooooooh he gets me so mad!!! :< lol

A technicality, but Cordy wasn't evil--she was just controlled by a powerful evil being, Jasmine. Sorry, can't help it!

Yeah, Connor was okay in season 5, but was annoying as hell in the other two seasons. I hate how much hate he continued to show for Angel, even when it was clear that Angel was good, and I hated his attitude towards magic--I wanted to slap him when he said, "Magic again--you guys relie way too much on that junk"--SHUT UP! I mean seriously, yes, magic can be bad, but it's also a powerful tool you do need sometimes--and one of the bad spells done was suggested by your hunny, Jasmine!Cordy!

Very true--he was a chump, to be so easily manipulated by Cordy. And it was ridiculous that he was okay with Jasmine killing those people, and that he pretended to be under her thrall even when he could see her true face all along!

Not to mention his voice was kind of annoying--whiney and high-pitched, as Angel notes in DD! He was sooo much more annoying than Dawn! He was so adorable when he was a baby though--what went wrong?! (Okay, I know what went wrong, but you get my drift).
