I can understand, up to a point, the desire to see the most plausible alternative partners vanquished - (and I've written Helmut into this very role myself, so I *really, really* understand!) - but how can they be vanquished, seriously, if only some strange cartoon version of them is - metaphorically! - trounced?

Also, now that I'm watching canon all over again, I am so struck by the range of other possible candidates that we don't use in these roles, many that are larger than life and might spice up stories?

I do think the lag between original airing and the DVD release has also affected it, so that so many writers, like me, end up drawing as much on fanon as our fading memories, so when you need to slot someone into that role (of potential other romance) you grab for the nearest guy, the one you know best from the fic......without reallly consider the full range of options?

Maybe?
