Gastropod wrote: Pretty sure this is a myth. Roman had an expanded role because Miles and Kerry liked him so much, not because of fan reaction. He was originally only supposed to appear in the first episode but they realised they had such an entertaining character he had to reappear. Alright, let's use another example: Velvet. She was supposed to be just a minor character who was colored because it would be weird for Cardin to bully a Shadow.

Fan reaction was the only reason we saw her for more than 1 episode.
