Smallville

Favourite female character is Chloe
Favourite male character is Lex
My favourite season is tied between 3, 5, and 8. Season 3 is more all over the place in terms of quality, but it's also got some of my all-time favourite episodes and the dynamic between Lionel and Lex was at its best then. And then seasons 5 and 8 are IMO the most consistently good seasons that SV ever produced
Favourite arc was the Luthor arc in season 3 and the Shattered, Asylum, Memoria episodes. I also liked the season 8 Doomsday arc, with the exception of the ending of course
Favourite cast member is probably Michael Rosenbaum
Favourite relationships are Clark and Chloe, Lex and Lana, and Clark and Lex. I can't narrow it down any more than that :P
Lex used to be the character I would die defending, but it got harder to do to that over the years lol, so I guess Chloe? I think she got a lot of unfair hate thrown at her during seasons 8-10
There are a lot of characters I can't sympathise with on SV! But I suppose the big ones would be Jonathon and Lionel as I had a lot of problems with the writers portraying them as the heroes and the complete opposite of how I generally saw them (later on in Lionel's case obviously, but I just hated how they brushed his past under the rug and talked about him as 'the misunderstood saint' in their interviews wtf). I didn't have a problem with Lionel until he started working with Clark and that meant he was suddenly redeemed now
A character I grew to love was Lana I guess? Love is probably too strong a word, but I had no time for her character in the high school years, and from around season 5 I thought that they started doing a lot more interesting things with her
My anti OTP is Chloe and Jimmy, I could not stand what that ship did to her character. I also had a lot of problems with the way fandom would woobify Jimmy and make Chloe out to be the awful bitch girlfriend, even though he was such a jerk to her at times and had such a chip on his shoulder. Seriously even when he proposed to her he was trying to take it back in the season 8 premiere, a few episodes later he was convinced that Chloe wasn't going to say she loved him under lie detection. Moments like that didn't make me feel sorry for him, it just made me wonder why he was even with her. And urgh the fuss he made over a letter Chloe wrote to Clark when she was15 years old good grief
