I think the problem for me is that one of the main sins of Killian is obsession. He hasn't shown that he's not obsessed with Emma. The whole season 3 was him trying to impress Emma. When does it end? How can I tell it's truly love and not his obsessive nature?

Hook has the weakest villainous backstoryof the main three (Regina, Rumple, Hook). I think if his backstory was more emotional it would derive sympathy for him. He saw his brother die and was like, Let's be pirates that steal, pillage, and have sexual favors while drunk because..........????

I think this new Killian is like how Rumple desscribes as a wooby puppy that follows Emma everywhere. How does an opportunistic dastardly man go from that to a chump that is a personal cheerleader for Emma. It's probably because we miss out on key character moments and backstory. I don't care about them kissing and talking about Netflix and phones. Show them bonding and redemption and change.

Eviler people tend to rank up on the "hot-o-meter".
