Almost like their only issue with him was that he was in the way of their ship..... If you feel that shipping has anything to do with people (dis)liking Hook's charcter, that's just further proof that, weren't for shipping, Hook himself would have no purpose in the show after the Neverland arc aka 3A.

I, for one, am extremely glad that S7 is a thing because it gave me a chance to appreciate Colin's work and notice the good of an actor that he actually is. While OG Hook was my least favorite character and meant nothing to me, I could only pay attention to Colin now that he is Nook and acutally does something worth watching (that's my opinion,don't mean to offend OG Hook's fans).

That all said, regardless of me being a Swanfire shipper, I believe that CS became more important than Hook himself or Emma herself, which made both Hook and Emma less interesting to me as the show progressed. With Nook, Colin was given a fresh opportunity to shine, and my, did he shine!
