Can you think of characters from tv shows or films where they are presented as the “baddie” but in actual fact you feel they aren’t? This can also be flipped to those who are presented as the “goodie” but you feel they are actually in the wrong?
Post Body

An example I can think of - which isn’t in the mould of the traditional good vs evil - is from Mrs Doubtfire.

As a child I always disliked Stu (Pierce Brosnan), as I saw him as the baddie coming in and stealing Daniel’s (Robin Williams) family.

Having rewatched the film as an adult I now have a difference perspective.

Stu doesn’t do anything wrong, he genuinely cares for Sally and her children and wants to enter a loving relationship.

He doesn’t steal Sally from Daniel and actually doesn’t do anything untoward throughout the duration of the film (he does call Daniel a loser at one stage but this is not to Sally and is during a private conversation with his friend).

In actual fact Daniel nearly kills Stu by spiking his food and Stu is still very amicable towards Stu - again displaying that he is actually a nice guy.

Are there any other examples that you can think of where you changed your opinion of whether somebody was actually the “baddie” (or goodie) after all?
