[QUOTE="Kenny Coyote, post: 166041, member: 102"] What is a "shipper"? BTW, I'm not one of the people bashing Mark and calling him a stalker. I wrote "I like Mark and never would call him a stalker - not then or now. I was just interested to get other opinions too." Not that you said I was one of them, but I wasn't sure if you included me with them or not. I do like April though. I think she was great! I didn't particularly like her the way she was in her first season, but I like who she became. If anything it's the change in society that I'm bashing, the change to where persistence was once considered admirable, today I sometimes hear it called "stalking." To me, stalking refers to following someone or something with the intent to hurt or kill, like an animal stalking its prey. I understood why Mark went after Pam the way he did. Women who look like Pam don't remain single for long. Mark was smart enough to know that if he didn't beat the other potential suitors to the punch, that one of them would get Pam before him. Do you think the storyline of Pam divorcing Bobby, having a romance with Mark, and then eventually remarrying Bobby made Dallas better than if Pam had stayed loyal to and married to Bobby the whole time?
