Does anyone else not like Kenny? Is Kenny the real monster?
First off I want to say that I like Kenny more at the end of Season 2 than I've ever liked him before (and have been planning to rewind to go with Kenny), but that being said...
I spent almost the entire first season trying to calm Kenny down and keep things together, maintain the harmony etc. and it began to be a bit of a drag. I began to start thinking of Kenny as a being unstable, pushy, aggressive and hostile and he ended up really annoying me, because he was such a pain to have to deal with.
Basically I think if given the choice in season 1, if Kenny had forced my hand by turning on me and giving me some kind of ultimatum I would have acted to remove him from the group, just because at that point he would have become too great a threat to the group (and for me that became a very thin line that he could have crossed easily just by loosing his temper and turning on me (like he did when he hit Clem)).
He didn't seem to get his composure back after the first argument in the pharmacy. Maybe those guys were all copecetic until Kenny arrived. Maybe Kenny's the real monster in all of this and we're all too biased to see it.

No matter what people say or what Tell Tale Games does, I will never stop liking Kenny.
Kenny is love, Kenny is life.
I never disliked or liked Kenny really. I found him a bit annoying at times how he'd go off on one, cause havoc and then hide behind the excuse of "doing it for my family" or "protecting my family".
Last time I checked Kenny, even you're family were getting tired of your behaviour.
If anyone insults my lord kenny they will die.
When I was allot younger, I used to check for monsters under my bed, but now that I have matured, I've found that the real monsters are inside us.
I don't believe Kenny is a monster. Unstable at times, hot tempered yes, but not a monster.
Speak for yourself, I've dealt with mine. I kicked its ass.
Kenny is a good guy who called pushed to the brink of losing his mind with all that happened to him.
Kinda like Lily.
I agree with you. Not actually a monster (in terms of his personality) but for practical purposes he almost may as well be one.
Carver is probably a monster but one that can get things done and can keep things together.
Omid is love. Christa is life. ;0P
Lilly's a darker character, less stable, basically falling apart, maybe even driven towards that edge by Kenny's behaviour within the group she was trying to maintain.

From the beginning, Kenny is cast as a person fiercely loyal to his family to the point where he is willing to let others take the fall. (Shawn/Duck situation). I got tired of his pointless arguing with Lily because all he wanted was to fix the stupid RV to take his family out of there. I got tired of his temper and his tendency to act without thinking. (Runs out of the barn immediately without any kind of plan.) I got tired of the way he treats Lee like a piece of s**t when I disagreed with him on one thing. Basically, in the end, the bad outweighed the good overall for me and I was sick of seeing Kenny's face which disappointed me so much that they brought him back for Season 2.
I never liked Kenny. But his death was still kinda sad. The game is less enjoyable if you hate Kenny....
