The Guardian AND James Olsen are ruining this show.

You stating it's not a racism thing doesn't mean it isn't a racism thing. Especially if you follow up that statement with a comment about him needing to be white, despite the fact that isn't an important trait about his character.

Again, you are making it a racism thing. I simply stated a fact, in which the character has typicay been portrayed as a white male. I don't care if he's black, but the fact that he is black has impacted his personality and character on the show, which is what bothers a lot of people.

How does his blackness impact his personality and character? I'm asking seriously, because Jimmy is written really blandly to me, and if they'd actually bothered to write him with a little more detail, like embracing his black heritage, he might actually be more interesting, IMO.

When was he an alpha male? Not when he was answering Cat's phone. Not when Lucy's father belittled him. Not when Snapper embarrassed him in front of everyone. He's been shown to have no more sex appeal than Winn.
He's a big guy, but until now and kicking butt, is in no way an alpha male.

James isn't an alpha male. He's an alpha male wannabe. He wants to be the hero even though hes not. The show would have been written better if they had this beta male learn how to embrace who he is (a sidekick) and be proud of it instead of turning him into something he was never meant to be.
I hate James too and hope he gets killed off. Not only cause of the character but because he is the weakest actor on the show.
More Chyler with supergirl scenes please. More of the white martian/red martian storyline. Less James, the Daximite, and love triangles/squares. -

James is going nowhere. He's striving to better himself and he is going to be an alpha male superhero. I realize America has conditioned people to see whites as the heroes with people of color as sidekicks. Capt. America/Falcon. Iron Man/Iron Fist. Murtagh/Riggs.
If it were Winn that was Guardian and James in a van, you guys would be jumping for joy.

Winn? Mister "I got winded when I open the fridge" Winn? No way, people would laught at the very idea of Winn vigilante.
He's striving to better himself and he is going to be an alpha male superhero.
It's CW berlanti show, they don't do "Alpha male", the closest possibly was Arrow but even that show turned into drama rather quickly.
