Personally, I think the secret to the magicians (S1-4) is that the pathetic main character is actually pathetic. He's not secretly powerful or chosen or given a level up through a training montage. He just cares so, so fucking much about everything and everyone that he becomes the main character. And the way that he cares is not ideal. It's painful and selfish. Its so painful and selfish that it feels real in a way that few other shows can truly master because their main character must be 'good' and a stand in for the general audience. (Which is why killing him was not some subversive win for the underdog like the writers toted. Like...killing Ned Stark was subversive. Quentin's existance is already fucking subversive. Him choosing Eliot over Alice would have been fucking subversive. Alice getting a plotline/personality outside of Quentin would have been fucking subversive (that scene in season 4 where she talks to herself is soooo good. Why would more of that depth require Q's death?)) Killing Q just took away a vital aspect of what made the Magicians special and added nothing.
