You know what? I've just come to the realization that I dislike/hate Finn for the same reasons I dislike/hate most women characters on TV shows. They're shallow, poorly formed, one-dimensional caricatures whose plots revolve around their love interest. Remove the love interest and there isn't much to them except plot devices that are usually interchangeable with other characters.

For example, if Finn never existed:
 * Abby sends Raven down to earth anyway because Raven is the best mechanic for the job
 * Octavia sets up the Unity Day meeting with Lincoln
 * Murphy (or Sterling?) shoots Delano, doesn't want to rescue Mel, and massacres a village (in revenge for them torturing him instead)
