I disliked series 2 because i disliked Saint.


I can't quite put my finger on why - Maybe it's because i was always such a Kim/Sugar shipper. But I hated Saint. I guess I thought she was boring.

I really disliked her also, I don't know why. She just didn't fit.

I completely agree.

The chemistry was kinda off, it was just so much better with sugar and kim OR even Beth, Saint was all wrong!!

reply

OMG i agree with you all. She just didn't fit. I thought she was more like a mother to kim than a lover.

Hmm, maybe it's my age then, coz I personally loved Saint. I thought the relationship twixt the two was touching and romantic. Yeh, Saint was the older one... kinda the POINT. She was the ground for Kizzer's wildness. You see this plenty in hetero relationships, why the issue of accepting it here? I dunno, maybe I watched a different Sugar Rush, but I certainly didn't see all the negative things in Saint that are posted in this thread.

Gimme Saint and gimme series 3! Cheers.

Maybe people didn't like her because she's not flawed enough... i can't pick out anything in particular that irritaed me about saint, but she didn't interest me; she was a well rounded, stable girlfriend type (who owned a sex shop in a what seemed like a try-hard effort by the writer to make the character "quirky").

I think one of the charms of the series was that all the main characters were screwed up and dysfunctional... apart from saint.

Now people relise but at the time when the show was on, everyone on this board loved saint and hated sugar

I watched this show about... four years ago, so I can't remember everything, but I remember I liked Saint. As far as I recall she was a bit annoying at times, but she was still sweet and when she was DJ:ing... Hot stuff. But that's just what I like.

I think I have to re-watch this soon!

I think that was the purpose of Saint, though; the contrast between her and Sugar which also contrasts between younger Kim and older Kim. Sugar was the hot, fun girl that Kim had a fling with because she was naive enough to think that it would eventually turn serious. Then you had Saint, who was the older and more together girl who gave Kim the realisation that love and relationships were so much different than she expected.

I couldn't say I disliked Saint... I just don't think that they did as much with her character as they could have.
