Okay, as someone who started Derry Girls on Thursday (April 25) and proceeded to watch all but the last episode by Friday night (April 26), I don't know much of what the fandom has said.
But, since the show is told in Erin's perspective, doesn't it start to make a lot of sense why James is seen in a fond manner throughout the show? Obviously they didn't always treat him that way, but when him and Erin are alone, she is obviously very fond of him and I dunno...
I think it's something interesting to analyze.
Then again, I do know nothing.

DERRY GIRLS APPRECIATION WEEK day four: favourite dynamic: Michelle & James
It doesn’t matter that you’ve got that stupid accent, or that your bits are different to my bits, but because being a Derry Girl, well, it’s a fucking state of mind!

i love derry girls look at all the white girl rep it gave us. gay rights (clare). autism creature (orla). superwholock girlie (james)
#I’m all three of these things which makes so much sense.#I’m not white however they’re Irish so I’m allowed to relate to them at least a bit#Also I know exactly what experience James had on Doctor Who tumblr#Speaking ​as a Doctor Who fan and a James Maguire kinnie (/j).#You can argue this with me if you like but he was definitely a Moffat stan#and I’m not even saying that AS a Moffat stan#I’m saying James is not allowed to be well liked in his circles#He has to find a niche group of equally hated misfits#Which is basically just my experience being hated on for liking the less popular thing#and finding MY group of Doctor Who fans#he wouldn’t be famous on SuperWhoLock tumblr by his very nature#However he would find a niche group and build a community around that#maybe do some podcasts and blog roundtables#That being said unlike me he liked Ten#but his favorite companion would be Clara#(because she’s Erin-coded)#and somewhere he has written some Ten/Clara AUs of the 50th Anniversary#which read suspiciously like self insert fic but in a good way#he can’t tell Erin or Michelle he writes fanfics though they’d never let him live it down#I’m putting all this in the tags because it embarassed me to go on this tangent#but like all matters I am just correct.#burdened by truth in this case but correct.#(Edit: reading this it sounds like I’m saying James wrote good fanfiction)#He did not - he just wrote very earnest self inserting#cringe culture /affectionate#also I should have said ‘Moffat Era Stan’ not ‘Moffat Stan’#this boy was not fighting in the showrunner wars#he is NOT strong enough#but even just earnest posts and edits about his faves#got mean tags and ‘good edit but ‘insert discourse he didn’t ask for’

Derry Girls au where Erin didn't run offstage and the girls did end up winning that tv show appearance and everyone loved them and they end up doing a charity appearance with the Spice Girls and sing Who Do You Think You Are with them. Cause that's a fun idea.

When he closes the door behind him, and opens his mouth to say, “Can I –”, Erin says it first.
“Can I?” she asks. And before he can answer, confused by the way she mirrors his words back to him as if he didn’t even say them – is he sure he said them? – his back hits the door.
She’s kissing him, hands already in the hair at the nape of his neck and she’s pressing closer and her hands are on him, bracing herself as she leans against him on tip toes, and all he can smell is whatever scent her shampoo is or maybe it’s her perfume, all he knows it it smells like her.
This is – not what he expected.
My view of how this kiss from Making Moves (my fanfic co-written with the talented @areseebee) might have looked at the moment Erin kissed James when he was least expecting it!

What terrified me most was all the things I hadn’t done and all the things I hadn’t said because I’d been too scared or too nervous… I like me, Erin… You… Shit! You, I… I like you, Erin. I think I’ve liked you for a long time and I don’t expect you to say anything. I just want you to know that I think you’re beautiful…

Gerry: Y’know I’m surprised you’re alright with this Joe.
Joe: Well, if she had to pick any fella, I'm glad it's the gay one. I trust those ones more. I mean, he's still a fella so he's probably a pervert, but them gay ones are nicer. Did you see thon gay fellas on that one show? Christ but they have an eye for fashion. His kind are a decent, aesthetically pleasing people.
Gerry: I don't think James is gay - *is about to explain bisexuality to Joe*
Joe: Don't be a fuckin' homophobe you southern shithead! Is that what they teach where you're from boy! We like them gays in this house! Even if they are dating our granddaughters!
Gerry: *sigh* We do like gays, yes.
James: *holding hands with Erin* … Is this good? I think this is good?
Erin: I expected a lot worse so…
do you guys think joe would’ve started treating james the same way he treats gerry once him and erin start dating?
i’ve always assumed that joe dislikes gerry simply because he married his daughter (similar to when ciaran started going out with sarah), but i wonder if he would also switch up on james like that since he seems to like him
