Roxy got on my nerves sometimes too. But the thing is she also gets repeatedly punched in the face with the consequences of her actions. So it often feels like it's easier to forgive her (or just emphasize) afterwards.
With Eve, I think that this story is clearly putting her into the gender based conflict and ignoring the race based conflict in society. I get that it's because the aim is focused on telling one story and not the other, but...eh.
Tunde... I don't think his story is intended to tell the story of Nigeria as more than just a origin/background thing. He spends more time telling the story of other characters, really.
Tatiana is only one half of the picture in Carpathia. Her sister is the other half. Not spoiling it more than that.
Margot... I find her kids annoying. And in later episodes I've found both her and her husband annoying. It almost feels like the plot is making them fail at communicating (despite being shown as good at communicating in earlier episodes), and forcibly breaking the family. Her storyline 30% politics and 70% family drama. Eh... too much second hand embarrassment at times that I actually fast forwarded some bits.
