What or who do you think is the most underrated and overrated for each of these topics?

Character

Season

Episode

Mine are:


 * Overrated Character: Hook


 * Underrated Character: Mulan


 * Overrated Season: Season 6


 * Underrated Season: Season 2


 * Overrated Episode: Birth


 * Underrated Episode: A Curious Thing

About the characters, when I’m saying that Mulan is underrated here I mean that the writers didn’t seem to care about her happiness which is a shame. I like Colin O’Donoghue, but the character of Hook is idolized in the eyes of too many.

I’d just like to say that Season 2 is often overlooked as the story wasn’t as polished as Season 1, but the reviled Greg and Tamara segment was only six episodes and it picked up by the finale so I don’t think it deserves the title of “worst season” as many seem to label it. As for Season 6, I just wasn’t a fan of the Untold Stories and I thought that the Black Fairy was a little rushed towards the end.

As for the episodes, Birth is typically seen as the best episode of 5A when I thought that Nimue was much stronger in terms of character development and plot. But, I think the most underrated is A Curious Thing, which IMO is the best episode of 3 after the winter and the season finales. It is also probably my favorite Snowing episode.
