Earth 2. I didn't know there was a enough of a fandom to have unpopular opinions.

You may have a point there.

My relatively unpopular opinion is that I never really cared for Devon, and by extension Devon/Danziger. They didn't bother me, exactly, but I've always been much more of a Julia and Julia/Alonzo girl.

I loved Julia/Alonzo. Julia was awesome.

Julia was one of my most favorite characters ever, on any TV show. ZOMG awesome.

I need to finish rewatching Earth 2. I bought the dvds and then only watched the pilot episode.

But yes, Julia was amazing. I think she had the most character growth of any of the characters. And the hardest time. And she was just awesome.

Definitely one of the characters I point to when people complain that there are no good female characters.

Yep. I loved her spy arc.

Quite. The show was great for characters of all types, but particularly the women, who were all very well-developed. And the environmental concept was fantastic. Also, the scenery made me want to move to New Mexico.

Ooh, how about The Invisible Man? I enjoyed the show, but have no idea about fandom opinions for I-man.

I was a die-hard Darien/Claire shipper, and rolled my eyes continually at Claire/Hobbes. Bleh.

Voyager.

[icepixie]

Hmmm.

I think the most unpopular opinion of that show that I have is I was a huge fan of Seven/The Doctor and never could abide by Seven/Harry. Also, S3 was my favorite, whereas I think many people didn't like it much. Beyond that, I pretty much fall in line with the prevailing opinions that the show as a whole generally sucked, and the P/T relationship was the only bright point.

Seeing as I have a habit of blocking out stuff I don't like (for example, I don't remember finals weeks from college), and the P/T relationship is one of the few things I do remember about Voyager, I would say this is pretty accurate.
