The Vampire Diaries: 10 Unpopular Opinions (According To Reddit)
9. Caroline Was A Mary-Sue
While Caroline was considered to be one of the biggest fans-favorite characters, the vampire isn't liked by everyone. It's nothing personal against the actor but more about the direction the writers took the character in. A few viewers in the Reddit forums even call her a Mary-Sue.
They believe that Caroline hardly had any flaws or was ever in the wrong. She hardly had any plots of her own and seemed to be there to enhance several of the male characters. It just wasn't a realistic portrayal for them.
