What is the purpose of so many shows making a totally irredeemably terrible character we're supposed to sympathise with. Like they make someone with zero positive traits, a spiteful, mean spirited and cruel character who just keeps hurting people and keep trying to make people relate to them or make them cool?

If you're talking about Jax, I'm pretty sure you're supposed to hate him.

At least I do.

It kinda seems like the entire last episode was dedicated to trying to make you feel sorry for him, and I just don't. He's just an asshole and a bully and I don't even find him interesting to watch.

Yeah he's an abuser, I hate him too. I wish Zooble had fucked his shit up in the final gunfight.

Hopefully it ends up more of a "This is why he's like this, but it still doesn't excuse his actions." thing.
