>>103720618>Why would side characters need a lot of depthno character needs to have depth in any show, but it is nice to have it because it makes the characters better and but in a show that is built on character interaction like venture bros, it gives context to action so they don't have to take breaks to say "ok so this is what happened and this is why it happened"
>The audience has been with this guy from the beginingBut even from that perspective, he's only been on screen for what 5% of the entire show?
You still don't have to constantly be around him and you still aren't necessarily supposed to think of his flamboyancy as a problem
If you were, they wouldn't just say "hey, I hate how flamboyant he is"
Is doc venture a skeeze who does weird things to get laid? yes, there's an entire episode dedicated to it, multiple maybe even.
Is shoreleave flamboyant to the point of annoyance, you can think that sure, but the show isn't forcing you to have that perspective
A show being well written doesn't mean a character is well written
story =/= character background/motivation =/= plot, neither of your points stand
Shoreleave is an okay character and the show isn't trying to get you to think he's particularly annoying because they would just showcase that
They've had episodes dedicated to characters that were basically background characters, shoreleave isn't supposed to necessarily come off as annoying
If you think that, fine, but that's literally just your opinion
