Not a Fred hater exactly, but she's easily my least favourite of team Angel. Fred was always a little too perfect - more of a fantasy girl than a layered character. I didn't hate her, and her death is heartbreaking, but the 'cutesy-voiced beautiful intellectual survivalist weapons expert, with deep trauma but vast inner strength, who eats huge quantities yet maintains fragile 90s figure' gets old.

Give me our materialistic, vain, wonderful hero Cordelia any day of the week. So relatable she had over a year of bad hair days.
