I never hated her like a lot of people, it is pretty clear the writers heard the backlash and made very noticeable improvements to her relationship with Mark.
I was an avid amber hater and i even posted something of the like in a post before i watched the last episode, and i have to say i am changing my mind she is clearly written better this season, i would still pinch season 1 amner in the face though
I think Season 2 is helping reinforce that the college episode in Season 1 was a one-off. It felt a bit like a writing fluke to be honest because her being massively pissed off was justified, but the tongue lashing after he saved her seems out of character now in hindsight.
I still hate her. Well hate is a strong word, but I dislike her character. It is so obvious the writers are trying to make her likable. Like it just screams “Look! Look! She’s such a selfless good person! Do you like her now!?” No, she is still the toxic girlfriend that gas-lit the shit out of Mark and then had the gall to say she will “give him a 2nd chance” she’s not even that important to the story
Honestly the only thing I disliked was the whole you lied about being a hero concept
I think I’m suppressed I’m liking her better tbh
Though will admit i always hate sex scenes in shows lol
But she feel a lot better tbh
Hot take…
I always thought Amber was just as pretty as Eve
i just don’t like the relationship in general. it just kinda happened, like i don’t know why these two are together. for me it was like she was the first girl who showed interest in him so he liked her and for her i honestly don’t know. i just never felt the chemistry here
The problem is that now she is a completely different character. From a viewing standpoint, it’s incredibly jarring to watch. They should’ve stayed apart and had Mark find someone new if they weren’t ready for her to date you know who yet.
I don’t have a problem with her actually understanding that she isn’t the only person in the world and mark actually needs to save people but it feels a little forced in my opinion
I just wished I had read the comics between seasons 1 and 2 so I wouldn’t spoil myself with what happens in the comics (granted they make changes to the comics to the show but still) but goddamn Amber is hot in episode 3 (even she is animated)
As much as they’ve made improvements I still hate her
S1 Amber was likable till she pulled that stunt outta nowhere. So I have my doubts about S2 Amber rn.
Amber does seem fine in S2, but something tells me they’ll still go the route of having Mark be with Eve.
I just want Mark to end up with Eve. Amber is cool and all but Eve is the shit.
I liked her character in Season 1 and felt her behavior to be justified, but I am also happy now that she’s the most supportive GF to Mark
She’s so much better this season
