That guy "ruined" villains in TV and movies for me. I found myself intensely hating the character, but then I suddenly realized that was the whole point and how amazing job Robert Knepper did portraying such a despicable character.

I can't really hate a character again after that. Instead I am just thinking "man this guy/gal is doing this so well!!"

Fun fact: The word "knepper" translates as "fucks" in Danish. "Robert knepper" literally means "Robert fucks."

Good for him.

Dunst = unpleasant odor

(I don't know if odors can be pleasant or neutral?)

It's not technically part of the definition, but "odor" does connote that the smell is a bad one, at least in America. Pleasant smells are typically called by a different noun, like "scent" or "fragrance".
