I think the thing was in S1 she was kind of annoying, she does the flip flop on why she's writing about the Flash, then she clearly knows about how Barry feels about her but does nothing to not flaunt her relationship in his face which seeing as Joe also isn't too thrilled with it at the time makes that a little meh, we also see she does have feelings for Barry, then she's made at Eddie for not liking The Flash and then is outraged that Eddie doesn't tell her everything he knows from his job which Eddie is right there are some things he knows which he shouldn't tell Iris and she's just like yeah but no I am Iris tell me.
She ireally wasn't bad in S1 tbh but there were nuggets of annoyingness people latched onto, but it's when she just suddenly became the defacto leader of the team despite no justification behind it given she has no powers, she isn't a tech whiz, she's really just monitoring stuff from the safety of the lab whilst everyone risk's their lives, made people annoyed, then they did the we are the flash thing which REALLY annoyed people because it was fucking stupid, but that's S4, S2 & 3 I think the big deal was she was kind of boring, oh and the thing in S3 where she did this season Felicity where being part of Team Flash wasn't good enough she needed to have her name be remembered for something even though she used Wally to help her do so, atleast that was held to like a single episode issue instead of a season long bullshit like with Felicity.
One thing it's just typical CW, despite it being their bread and butter a lot of their shows just cannot do relationships well, you almost always find one if not both sides of the ship becoming putrid to a large population of the fans because of how petty, whiny, needy and juvenile they are because well that's what CW does I guess.
but the racist hate for him was pathetic along with the claims that the show was attacking white men by having Kara in a relationship with him. I don't feel Kara and James made a good couple but the crap about it being something to encourage us to date black men and not white men couldn't have been further from the truth and interracial relationships really set some of those people over the edge and show how insecure they were. We saw the same hate with Zendaya when it was believed she was playing Mary Jane in 'Homecoming' and they were saying they were forcing an ugly black actress on them and Mary Jane was supposed to be hot. The CW Network don't have a good track record with relationships though and 'One Tree Hill' is one of the only shows I think could be praised for some of their relationships and Nathan and Hayley were very popular together and I liked Bethany Joy Lenz in that show and she is a very underrated actress and singer and I have got all her albums.
Yeah I recall seeing that on the Supergirl boards on IMDB back in S1, but I will say I also saw a lot of idiots creating smoke with no fire, I think on a few occasions I got called racist because I said I do not like James, even though everytime my point was he doent feel like he's an evolution of Jimmy, which had nothing to do with his race but how the character was written or how Mechad wasn't an obvious choice to play James, I know I have said it a few times before but Jimmy/James being taller than Superman is just wrong imo, also I never felt James was the loyal best friend Jimmy is often portrayed as being from what I recall atleast.
But you had not only the idiots doing the racist shit but morons also labelling anyone who wasn't supportive of the character as racist regardless of why they weren't fans, which just devolved the talks into racist bullshit over and over, much like we got with the whole Ghostbusters thing, heaven forbid you just don't like something, no you have to be a racist, misogynistic, sexist arsehole...I cop to the arsehole part but I am not the other 3, I just thought that film sucked and so did James, and now I think James is just uninteresting.
As for MJ in Spidey, I never cared mostly because I didn't know who Zendaya was, I thought Zendaya was who was playing Liz, and I just though ok fine that MJ I don't care she is gorgeous as MJ is meant to be, then when I realised my mistake I was like ok, only issue I then had was when the same people who moaned about Kirsten Dunst not being attractive enough to play MJ because MJ is meant to be a model but were fine with Zendaya I was like huh what? not saying Zendaya isn't attractive but to me I don't see a huge difference in how hot she is compared to Dunst back in the day...going to be honest though I am biased as I had a crush on Dunst since Small Soldiers, don't you judge me!...that and just my general groan and eye roll at Marvel's Zendaya is not Mary Jane, Mary Jane is not in the movie, cut to Zendaya's last scene and her friends call her MJ...fuck you Marvel, Fuck You!...otherwise im like whatever I don't care, well except for as I have said my odd pickiness about things like MJ has red hair dammit RED HAIR!!!, similar to Jimmy being shorter than Superman, that's all I want god dammit, I don't care if they are black, white, Chinese or Andorian just give MJ red hair and make Jimmy smaller than Clark IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK!?
