Karno's character development in-canon amounted to Loyal Company Drone Can't Understand Why His Assigned Bride Thinks He's a Snook and So He Goes Bloodthirsty. Like the Top Jock who can't understand why the Homecoming Queen's fallen for the midget in the opposing school's (from the poorer part of town/galaxy)band.
In a more involved story plot he might resent why he can't graduate to Most Valued Player On the School Varsity Team when the Uber-Jock (Zor Prime) slips his mental clutch, but he really doesn't. He's that dull and lapdog loyal.
Yeah, he gets slapped around a lot here.

T.R. Edwards you can claim is a product of unresolved trauma. Corg is a ruthless defender of his people, who refuses to compromise. Khyron has a certain charismatic mania, but is arguably a crackerjack officer not afraid to take risks.
Karno's just a clone-stamped company drone with neither smarts nor developed character enough for the fanbase to give a damned about him.

Well, some blatant nerd mannerisms aside, Louie was a very PRACTICAL nerd. The incident with the Pupil Pistol also aside, Louie was fairly aggressive, as befits a tanker.

Oh, you could argue that the GMP was running a subtle double-cross system in the event Zor was a double-sleeper, so they were feeding him misinformation through Nova to see what happened.....but I really don't buy that; they just didn't seem that clever.
Nove also had to have her eyes pried open after having at least one prospective boyfriend blown out from under her.
I didn't mind Dana being airheaded, because when she went LR, she went LT big time.
Favorite male character? Angelo Dante. He was a brick, but he was a sergeant, and as such knew he had to be the reasonable, stodgy, counterbalance to two eccentric lieutenants(playboy Philips and debutant Sterling), two misfits(bantam-weight conflicted Grant and tech-nerd Nichols), and eventually an emo-alien defector of dubious reliability(Zor Prime) . He also beats up two ARMORED GMP guards while wearing only a hospital robe and made it look easy. While everybody else around him had issues, he was Mr. Rock.
taalismn wrote:More importantly, Dante was the resident grown-up in the 15th.
Phillios had his moments, but he was arguably even more hormone-driven than Dana, who didn't have ex-lovers popping up all the time causing trouble(arguably because her love interests, at least in the scope of the show, kept DYING).

With each other? Perish the thought.
No, Phillips probably winds up being gunship-daddy to his kids. Especially if he has any daughters...he KNOWS what young men are like. Though admittedly he'll try to teach his son(s) his pick-up lines(much to Marie's disapproval).
Dana's implied bad relations with her parents means that she'll likely ALWAYS try to be there for her own kids, and will wring herself wretched if she ever had to make the same decisions her parents did leaving her kids behind for professional reasons. Frankly, though, I figure she becomes an increasingly reluctant warrior, with the only saving grace being that the most recent crop of enemies being machines means she can slaughter them without compunction or concern that she's killing fellow human beings...Once the fighting's over, though, she'll throw in the towel and 'study war no more'...or, at best, get into a teaching job as an academy instructor.
