Poll time!

[author_by_night]

This is in response to another poll a friend did regarding characters that were messed up because of bad writing. So here's my question - can writers (of shows, books or movies) mess up characters?[Poll #1673373]

Writers can develop characters poorly or inconsistently but that does not make the character OOC. Sadly, what happens in canon is part of the character, crap though it may be.

(I will say that tv might be different from books or even movies as tv is written by different people and has different showrunners. But, even then, what happens is still canon and still part of the character's history.)
