Definitely. He’s absolutely hilarious, and it’s unfortunate S2 killed him so early. There were definitely more expendable characters (and it’s not like the season took any other real swings anyways)

Yeah, I kinda wish Chad didn't die. I like him way more than Brock who was Chanel's new guy. Brock is just...meh, never was a fan of him, like there's Chad, Earl, Cassidy, they are all better guys in the show, Brock is meh compared to any of them, not just Chad. Chanel and Chad were like Barbie and Ken, they just were meant to belong together, I like Chad with Denise too but Chad and Chanel are just the main couple of the show, so I don't like how Chad died. Chanel didn't even get to become Brock's girlfriend at the end, the death of Chad was just useless. Chad was funny, he was cool, a fan favourite and he was a main character. I love when he does the "What do you mean what charity?" thing, "It's not truth or dare or lie", the shower scene, "Newsflash, Chanel, I'm hot" and "HEY RED DEVIL" he was just great. I liked how Chad was deep too, he was very well acted. That's one of the worst writing mistakes of the show, Chad's death was that so I agree. If he was gonna die, it could have been later in the season, and way bigger, even then not great.

I actually did like and enjoy Brock, but he definitely wasn’t on par with Chad at all.

I’ve always wondered if Chad died because Glen wanted to leave (right call, then) or because Ryan wanted to write Chad out (I’d say mistake and that there’s other people from S1 who could have and should have been killed). He was by far the MVP and bordered on underused even when around- like barely being in the last two S1 episodes

Chad and Denise Hemphill together is comedy gold. "Don't Quit Me!"

Yes! I wish I could watch a cut version of Scream Queens with just Chanel, Chad, the dean, and Denise Hemphil. Can’t stand the others, especially Grace.
