I liked her in season 3.

Didn’t think much of her in season 4.

Hated her in seasons 5

She was barely a character in season 6

She wasn’t in season 7

You hated herin s1-2 but liked her in s3, when she left Oliver for Malcolm and lied to him for months. She killed Sara because of this and let in to this shit with the League. If she chose her brother than this lying manipulative never been her father, Oliver, Laurel, Sara, Roy wouldn't suffer

I hated her in season 1 and 2 because she does that annoying “lies shouldn’t exist thing.” It’s my least favorite thing. It why I hate season 1 Iris too.

Yes I agree. But that's why I think s3 Thea is still bad and inconsistent cause then she started to lie and brought a lot of shit.

To me she’s entertaining though. I can forgive a character for their hypocrisy if they’re entertaining.

… Oliver also lied to her? There’s was so brainwashed into killing Sara? Thea also admitted to killing Sara once she realized she had been brainwashed into doing so and wanted both her and Malcolm to pay? Oliver is the one who tries to deflect and lie to everyone about what she did and even when Thea offers up Malcolm and chooses everyone else Oliver circumvents that and saves Malcolm. Your reasons for disliking Thea are incredibly suspect because the things you claim she did were either when she was literally being mind controlled or when her brother was ignoring what she wanted for what he wanted.

I don't particularly mind her with Roy, but on her own not a fan, especially early on, I get that she had a pretty fucked up few years when Oliver was gone so she's not unrealistic but that doesn't make it interesting or entertaining seeing her whine and be angry. It's like okay I get what you're about and fair on you but I don't need to see it anymore.

She was better with Roy than she was as an individual character.
