 * The writing isn't bad or subpar. I think it's good for the show.
 * Ruby does indeed have character development.
 * I don't think Bumbleby is being forced. The handholding was unexpected, I'll admit, but I don't think it's "forced shipping" or "pandering to the fans."

I only somewhat agree with those first 2, the third I agree with as a statement of "I think if they are going that way it wasn't because of the fandom..." it's still stupidly forced though, you have a character that without any particular interest in relationships that has baited and or had like 4-5 of them... while you have almost no other characters in more than 1, if the relationships were ultimately nothing-burgers why bother baiting them with valuable air-time, the story never took time to explore why they never worked or what they did for Blake, so they may as well have never happened... and during seasons she pretty much left the impression she was less interested than other characters.
