What character that is potrayed as a super genius in media felt like an idiot to you ?
Mine is light and L from death note . They were potrayed as some kinda of super genius characters but in reality it felt like every other characters shared one braincell and light and L were average .
EDIT : I have come to the conclusion that so may of lemmings didn’t get what my post was about . I don’t care if a charecter is an asshole or isn’t very good in other aspects of their life.
Exactly, it got so damn crazy during his peak, that people kept calling him “billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk” as if that made him creadible, meanwhile I kept thinking that I must have missed something since I never understood what was so amazing about him and his work.
True, but he was a rich opportunist with good timing, so that made him look like a genius, as opposed to the serial fabulist and racist POS he ended up being.
Specifically Sheldon for me. I was in grad school when that show was first aired and I hated it instantly and thoroughly. I was already aware that academia is an asshole-factory and couldn’t enjoy it.
It’s been a long time since I watched it, but the to best of my knowledge most things he did were feasible with the materials available and applied knowledge. You could argue that maybe all those materials might not be present in a more real version of those events.
If I remember correctly, he was an “idiot” when it came to personal relationships, which was mostly driven by past traumatic events.
It lost quality. Dr Park and Dr Masters are both really tedious characters that are not well rounded or well acted.
That being said the show otherwise is generally pretty solid. The last season is definitely the weakest. Also fuck Lisa Edelstein for not even returning for the finale when everyone else and their mother did.
Patient gets sick
House is wrong at first
Everyone is wrong for a while
They think they're right, but they're wrong
House has a random epiphany, steals $50 from Wilson, and saves the patient
Maybe I should watch House. I love Lucifer and every episode is basically
Lucifer has a problem
Someone else has a problem
Lucifer makes his problem worse
Someone else makes their problem better
Lucifer uses the solution from someone to make his problem better, usually after making an epiphany quip
Lucifer learns nothing
I’ve watched House over and over again over the years and always kind of idolized him. But something must have changed about me because the latest time around, it hit way different. I realized, “wow, I really wouldn’t want to be acquainted with this guy in the slightest.”
But I think that’s because I finally actually understood the show.
Also, Robert Sean Leonard is massively underrated as Laurie’s foil. Wilson is definitely now my favorite character.
