Who would you choose?
Honestly, Fisher reminds of an unstable Robert. Daniel seems more enlightened, but still traditional enough to be a gentleman.
I would choose Daniel. Someone remarked that he was as dull as dirt, which made me giggle. But still, Daniel seemed much more loving.
shareI think Philip in the first season was the only good/believable love interest she had.

You did just fine, Clarence. Now go git yo'self some hot cornbread!
Yeah, if I had a choice to put them in order, I'd say Philip, then Fisher, then Daniel. Daniel is just kind of annoying, plus he used the information he gained to write stories that made the people of the hamlet angry and betrayed.
shareFisher was the more passionate and Daniel the more pragmatic. Neither of them really endeared themselves to me. I did feel as though it was all so hypocritical though: Laura should let Fisher go because she shouldn't try to change him, yet she can have Daniel because she makes him want to change and she can see good in him etc etc....And so really the case of Daniel being the "better" option is somewhat null and void if considering them by her parent's standards. I didn't mind Fisher til hr came back and was all hang-dog. I do wish he'd grown a backbone. At least Daniel had that...sort of.
shareIn all fairness, there is a difference between wanting to change someone and having someone want to be a better person because he knows you. But if it had been me, I'd have had a much harder time getting over Daniel's betrayal than Laura did. She completely broke with Philip for letting his temper get the better of him and making him do something he later regretted, but she can overlook Daniel making a coldly calculated decision to betray her and her friends for his own profit. I could forgive someone for that if I believed he was genuinely sorry, but it would take a lot before I would be willing to trust him again. I would be much more likely to give the guy with a temper a chance to show that he can get the better of it.
sharePhillip was an arrogant hothead who thought he was above everyone in Laura's village. He was bound to kill some one eventually.
shareI agree that Philip had a temper. I always thought that his arrogance was rooted in underlying insecurity, but whether it was or not, arrogant was certainly how he came across to the hamlet folk. But why on Earth would you say he was "bound to kill some one"?! I saw absolutely no reason to think that Philip was a budding murderer.

Fisher! Daniel is super boring. I don't miss him when he he isn't onscreen. Laura messed up with that one.
