they should remake breaking bad but instead of making and dealing meth it’s a suburban white mom who makes soap and the same levels of violence, gore, and drama remain

Reasons provided for Connecticut Clark:
his ENTIRE thing is that he’s just some normal guy
its his entire reason for existing
3rd happiest man in Connecticut wym?
Reasons provided for Molly Grue:
Molly is the camp cook for a bunch of outlaws, she’s a normal person surrounded by a bumbling magician, a unicorn, a king, and a prince.
There is nothing special about her. She is in a wonderful fantasy setting, friends with a wizard and a unicorn, and she is just Molly. Not young, not pretty, not magical or talented. She just is.

He’s just a really boring office worker who loves black coffee and HATES musicals. They make him uncomfortable

Mumen Rider (One Punch Man) vs. Tad Strange (Gravity Falls)
Reasons provided for Mumen Rider:
Mumen Rider is the top C-class hero in One Punch Man, which essentially means he’s the top of the average category. He has no superpowers or much fighting ability and is just there to help. He’s also probably the most normal person in the entire cast.
Hes Doing His Best ❤️ mans is just a guy on a bike in a super hero world, riding around with a heart of gold!!!!
No powers in a high power superhero world. He is the Heart and Soul of the series though. But he is just like. a guy with a bike
Reasons provided for Tad Strange:
aside from the premise of his character being that hes the most regular guy in a town full of insane shit the hilarity is emphasized by the fact that everyone thought he was going to be an insane evil lore character and he had like. 2 fucking lines. ABSOLUTE someguyitude
Ironically the most normal person in the town. He wears a dress shirt and tie. The only abnormal thing about him is that he declares his love of bread unprompted once.
