Agree!

They should've kept Patricia as she was, no, I don't want to see her grow up, or at least I still want to see some of the real her, even when she has a boyfriend.

Not saying I dislike Peddie, but they could've handled them better other than being the drama center during the intire third season. They made Patricia weak, I mean, yeah, she kept some of her throughout the show, but Patricia wasn't the same person in season 1 and season 3. In season 1 she was, how do I put this - goth, (not really, but you know what I mean). And in season 3, she became all about drama. Not even a protagonist! Which makes me mad. They kind of ruined my favorite character.

Oh, Mara. What can I say? She became a bitch because of a guy. Two times in the show! When Mick broke her heart, she became a mean bitch. Well, to be honest, I loved it. But what did they do in season 3? She was the same girl Mara, apart from the fact that she somehow became more of a feminist than a nerd. I hope that made sense.

Joy... Well, I agree with you that she lost her dignity and personality because of a guy. Speaking of Fabian. But her changed didn't affect me anyhow, unlikely did Mara & Patricia. She was still left as the real her and not a bitch - opposite to Jaffray.

... Yeah ...
