Thanks, amber jade . Lol, it's okay. I can understand why Max appeals to some people. I just find it frustrating that the writers don't develop the character beyond his love life. They don't make it easy for people to like him! I mean it's not like he is a villain, who we're meant to dislike. We're meant to dislike people like Phil and Shirley for their vile behaviour. But I'm not sure what we're meant to feel about Max. Are we meant to cheer when he falls into bed with yet another woman? Or takes advantage of a young girl?

I don't fancy him - just find him interesting and like his relationship with Carol which they should go into a bit more I think, i.e. what happened in their childhood or something.
Maybe they could have him trying to start up a business or finding a job when he gets back and struggling a bit with it.

Sorry I didn't mean to insinuate that you fancy him or anything.
True. I do like his and Carol's sibling relationship, too. And yes, I would like it if they delved more into their childhood and Jim's abusive and racist parenting. For me, that is the most interesting part of Max. Finding out his own father locked him in a coffin for having a black friend was quite shocking. I wanted the writers to explore more of that. It would've been interesting to see Max tackle a racist storyline given his backstory.

Basically any storyline not involving him being "in love" for the fiftieth time would be interesting. I quite liked his little feud with Phil and was disappointed that it ended so quickly. A business-related storyline sounds good. I might start watching again.

A very insecure man indeed.
