Which character did you dislike the most?


I always wanted to smack Rick Moranis's character for being such a jackass.

To be honest, I didn't like Julie at all. She wasted time with a loser like Todd and instead of going to college to make something of herself, she became a teen wife and mom living off her mom.

You know, it is clear to me that Julie and Todd simply were young and still had some maturing to do.
I don't believe that they were bad people, even if they should have waited a few more years with getting married.
They were just young and in love and didn't think ahead.
And how is it fair to call Todd a "loser" after he helped with Gary and revealed that he was abused by his father?
That is when even Helen started to see something good in him.
And I guess that Todd having such an asshole for a father is also why he called Julie a bitch once.
That is probably how he had been taught that a man should talk to his wife. 😠
