>>19826939>ckthat fake shit was so annoying, probably the main reason people started endorsing cole and rallying around him, because he was the only fish, who didn't involve himself in that garbage. Though production wanted that, by telling cole that she was JCs replacement, and that she was his because he got her before Brian during Christmas, also because cole was already bringing in the most views at that point. The fake drama obviously wasn't. So, they tried using cole but he was to based, Cole knew nobody could replace JC (he said that himself in B2), and that it was scripted. I remember that being the main time things started shifting towards cole. probably the reason he got kicked as well, he was getting more viewers then Brian who Jet & Sam were trying to force as le main character, Moreso the group session did the most for Cole. When tayleigh made herself look like a fool by saying that he was lying because she watched criminal psych vids which is utter blasphemy from a daft cow, and when TJ exposed himself as a misinformed follower who didn't even know the true matter even though before cole was kicked tj went downstairs to watch him do karate which was the first sign of initiative. The dogpling of cole, is what made him the main character,the most likeable, and what made him switch from detective cole to rich cole which are both good characters, but rich cole still wasn't an evil character because he was still likeable, and even admitted before he did it that he was using it as a defense against the dogpiling, and to make them angrier. Rich Cole made him look stronger then them which he undoubtedly is. Cole is simply the best fish for a reason.
