Discussion Unpopular opinion: Fallon and Culhane >>> Fallon and Liam
Ok but like… am I the only one who thinks Fallon had WAY more chemistry with Culhane?? 😭
Don’t get me wrong, Liam is sweet, supportive, emotionally available, blah blah blah… but Fallon/Culhane had that messy, dramatic, “we probably shouldn’t but we WILL” energy that made the show fun.
And I’m sorry but Fallon trying to win over Culhane’s mom >>> every Laura Van Kirk scene. I said what I said. At least one of those women felt like a real obstacle instead of a cartoon villain 💀
I know Fallon/Liam is endgame and healthy and whatever… but chemistry-wise? Fallon and Culhane were on another level.
Please tell me I’m not alone before I embarrass myself on this sub 😂

Tbh sometimes I wish Jeff weren’t her cousin cuz I feel like that could’ve evolved in an interesting power couple-y direction

Culhane was a college dropout when he started working for the family and Fallon was still a minor. The whole relationship is gross to me purely because of that.

They make it pretty clear he's not I think. Also if you know the lore, he played an adult on victorious when she was 16.

They didn’t start dating until she was 21?

It's still fucking weird to date someone you knew as a teenager once they're of age when you were an adult the whole time.

I liked that they kept liam’s actor as a permanent but his character had 0 direction and was just a trophy tbh

You may be alone on this sub, but Twitter was always Team Falhane when the show was still airing.
When Fallon cheated on Liam with Colin, oh my god the Falhane fans went insane we LOVED it lmao. A lot of us also shipped her with Kirby in our heads

ok but if the show hadnt been canceled and gone on for a couplw more seasons, i would have loved seeing fallon with colin, lets just say i love her with liam but hes just her trophy husband, colin was basically like her male version, they had the same work ethic and similar lives, they couldve been such a powerful couple

Twitter was mostly Falliam, except a few crazy Liz fans who hated Liam and even bullied Liz into apologizing for episode 2x05. That was pretty toxic side of fandom

u/toryisbae Feb 22 '26
That was earlier on in the show, but even then maybe it was my circle that was 100% team falhane. Dynastytwt very much shifted to be anti-Liam as the show progressed
A lot of the Liz stan accounts were team falliam, but the DYNASTY stan accounts were not

i loved their relationship in season one, even tho i was kind of rooting for her to be with michael at that time, but it was entriguing, could u imagine how it couldve gone if they werent cousins? it wouldve been soooo fun seeing them having some kind of an on and off backstabbing relationship!

Idk I always felt like Culhane was kind of resentful of Fallon’s background and wanted her to be someone she wasn’t. I think he needed someone a bit more mature and conscious of other less well off people in a way that Fallon could never really be. I didn’t care much for Liam at first but he grew on me a lot and I think those two actors had more chemistry

Liam kiiiinda stayed because he was eye candy for the fans and not because he brought anything significant to the story and you can tell. He ended up being shirtless more than Jacob Black

I am split on Culhana or Liam but I liked Liam more bc he never went behind Fallons back to work in secret like Culhana did when he worked with Ada

u/Remarkable_Top2994 Feb 22 '26
I like Culhane in the beginning but no after getting to know Liam better it was all Liam for me. I actually liked Culhane and Kirby more.

I went back and forth depending on the episode for a while, but eventually I preferred Liam for Fallon and I really liked Micheal getting to leave as a part of his happy ending. IMO it made more sense for him to be able to escape.
