Yeah, the actor who plays Five is absolutely phenomenal. Kid characters are always tough to get right, especially if you cast a weak kid actor who hasn't fleshed out their acting abilities yet, but this one just NAILS Five as a sarcastic/cranky/fatalistic older guy trapped in a young body. (I guess I relate to Five so much because people constantly think I'm a LOT younger than I actually am as well and they treat me accordingly, and it's annoying as hell when you're in your mid-thirties and people think you're barely even 18. Also, I'm basically 80 on the inside. And cranky. And grumpy. And cynical.)
I also never expected to name a HETERO ship as my favorite, this almost NEVER happens, but these two just struck a nerve with me. Agnes is just so cute with her love for Hazel and he's just adorable with his whole "Imma quit my job, I hate it, I wanna be with YOU, apocalypse be damned". AWWWW.
Yeah I've been meaning to go gif-searching on Tumblr! I figured people there would love the show, haha!
