[neverending]

Carl is the heart of this show. He's the future generation. Without Carl, there's no reminder that this is a society in transition, and the world will exist beyond the lives of the current generation. Without Carl, you lose a lot of depth to the story. I find the changes Carl's been going through fascinating.

The hatred I've seen for this character across the internet really bothers me. Carl's stupid, carl never does what he's told... Holy crap- he's a child! He acts like a child. A society without children is a society without hope.
