(This is a tiny bit off-topic as it brings up a fourth character, but still).

What ticks me off the most are the people who insist Zelena, someone who has had 1 and a half seasons of actually trying to change (She didn't start trying until 5b), is irredemeble, while Regina, someone who had 5 seasons to change (She didn't start until Henry asked in S2), is a saint. I'm not saying Zelena should be forgiven for anything and everything. She did kill Neal, (Though Regina's death toll is most definitely higher). I guess there's the issue of in-show, no one wanted to give her a chance either, even in season 6 when she was actually trying and was instead forced into solitude in the woods with only the Evil Queen coming to visit. No wonder Zelena sided with her. (I've wanted to say that for a while)

Anyway, I guess stuff like this is just full of double-standards. Whether it's Regina's own hypocrisy, or the fans, people will defend their favorites to the end, while bashing on those they hate or those that make their favorite look bad.

(I hope this isn't off-topic, it felt on-topic enough)
