This is the first in a new series where we take famously bad or wasted characters and actually make them work. From Jonathan Byers in Stranger Things, to Finn and Rose from Star Wars, to Captain Marvel, Evelyn Deaver from Incredibles 2, and yes, Rey Skywalker. We ranked them on the Fix-o-Meter from easiest to hardest to fix, and discussed how better writing could have saved their arcs.
Whether you love these characters or hate them, this is a deep-dive on how bad writing happens, what it does to a story, and how we can redeem them.
