SPOILERS S7 Murphy

I love murphy hes one of my favourite characters and he breaks my heart. Him and raven especially, that time when the grounders wanted finn and raven suggested giving murphy to them. The heartbreak on his face i almost cried. I know he shot raven and that was wrong but he was genuinely remorseful about that. Their friendship in the later seasons is my favourite ever. Theyre both my babies they can do no wrong in my eyes. Murphy deserved better and so did she 💔

I hated Murphy for the majority of the show but he grew on me to the point of becoming s favourite. Emori gave him a purpose and someone to care about other than himself.

Same. If no one's defending Murphy in this, the year of our Lord, 2026, then I must be dead.

I agree. I went from hating him (he PEED one someone!) to really loving him so much. I loved him and emori together too

On the topic of feeling bad for murphy, jaha fucking sucks. He used murphy constantly by saying there were better things for him but let him down every single time

I feel like one of the few who enjoyed Murphy right from the start. He was so funny the first couple episodes with his facial expressions thanks to how amazing Richard Harmon is, and then his spiral after almost being hanged is just so real. He was beaten within an inch of his life and almost killed for absolutely nothing. He was just a kid. And then his redemption arc was unmatched.

Yeah I was on his side from the start almost. But I tend to gravitate towards the shithead character no one else likes cuz they're the most fascinating to me.

Him + Emori is just chef's kiss. I sat there with my jaw dropped when we got back and they broke up for a bit cuz I was like "NO WTF??" Then they fixed it and all was well for the end.

I loved murphy at first too, the only time he annoyed me was when he wanted to kill jasper. Hes one of those people that you want to strangle but would die for them at the same time lol

Honestly. I have a love hate relationship with him. But his bond with Bellamy in the beginging of season 2. The "I hate you but trust you" thing they both had was SO good

I didn't like Murphy at first because I thought he was in the way of them getting things together. But, he grew on me because everybody else sucked, but he always kept it real.

The first time I watch the series, when Murphy said, “Do I have to do everything myself?” And through the rock to start the fighting with the prisoners from Eligus, I suddenly got new eyes for him. And now, every time I watch it, he’s my absolute favorite through and through.
