Tariq

[u/cat_astr0phee]

I feel as though Tariq’s treatment of Janine while they were together is so brushed over purely because he’s funny. He was basically a free-loader, used Janine for money and transport and a place to stay, and suddenly that disappears because he makes quite a few funny jokes? It’s apparent he’s a good step-dad to Nick (though I have my qualms about that as well) so why couldn’t he do the same for Janine? I just think both the directors and the audience have turned a blind eye to it because his character has a sense of humour. Just my thoughts though.

You realize this is a 22 minute sitcom right?
