I do think that people get really emotionally involved in the TV shows that they love and I think that is fantastic. Of course they are going to have opinions.

If you eat a lot of starchy foods, introduce a vegetable once a week, then twice a week, and then three times a week. Slowly fill your diet with new flavors. By the time you're ready to let go of whatever it is you want to let go of, you've got a full menu.

Well, I don't think characters change. I think they become more revealed. I don't think you really can change a character on a show.
