Today, I want to know which TV character’s origin reveal improved them the most as a character in your eyes.

Pop Culture Theme Time is a feature where I put a question to you to see what you think about a particular theme. I might later revisit the theme for a future Drawing Crazy Patterns or Top Five.

Generally speaking, we make our minds up about TV characters pretty quickly, but occasionally, some later revealed backstory can change our views about these characters fairly substantially. What I’m looking for here, then, is which TV characters was improved the most in your eyes by an origin reveal.

For me, I’m going with Trevor Lefkowitz from the hit CBS sitcom, Ghosts (where he is played by Asher Grodman). Trevor, of course, is one of the titular ghosts on the series. He is the most recently deceased ghost of the bunch, having died sometime in the early 2000s. He is a finance “bro” who died with the pants and underwear of his business suit off. Naturally, we’re to assume that he died in some sort of sordid sex or drugs (or both) scenario.

HOWEVER (Spoiler Warning), he was accidentally killed by a bad batch of drugs. His pants were off because he loaned them to one of his younger co-workers who was being hazed by the older co-workers as party of a tradition at his company that required the “rookies” to run all the way back to the city from the secluded mansion in only his undershirt. He also loaned his underwear because he didn’t want the other guy’s privates touching his nice pants (Trevor is not TOTALLY non-sleazy).

Obviously, showing that he was actually a sweet guy trying to hide his sweet insides through an exterior of sleaze really makes you look at Trevor in a different way.

Okay, that’s my pick. How about you?

I was going to say Trevor as well. His reveal was perhaps the most unexpected and completely NOT what we thought, making him NOT the total douche we thought he might be.
