I honestly don't get why someone would not like Foggy. I mean, he made done questionable choices this season, but he's certainly not the only one! As a character though, I think he's great. I think the show needs him, and I can't imagine me liking it anywhere near as much (or at all, frankly) if he wasn't in it.

DA I feel like they dont like that he is used for comedy purposes and for some say the actor fails delivering (that's what much people said post season 1)

I do believe it's a good character and they are doing a good job, he has that comic feel tho Elden has said he hasn't read the comics. He is doing it good so far, at least for me...

I've read in tumblr and other sites that they feel like Foggy drags Matt that without Foggy Matt will be so much better but i think that's what the showrunners wanted with their relationship.

Charlie did an interview where he said that Matt and Foggy relationship rushed through things and some wounds from s1 are still there, and in s2 things just imploded.

AYRT
That's definitely true about the relationship between them. From their first scene together there was all the tension still from the end of season 1. But that's good, it wouldn't have felt natural for things to be hunky dory again after everything.

I think the comedy thing is the issue, because that's not what he is. Not really. He has comedy moments, but he is not the comic relief. He is the voice of reason; while Matt and Karen go too far, he is there to pull them aside and tell them to stop it, and even to hold them back if need be. Without Foggy, the show would be Matt beating up badges 24/7 and Karen running around putting herself into danger for the sake of a client, or a story, dependi go on the job she is doing at the time. I feel like they would both die very quickly!

That's my main problem with that scene where he and Matt are walking: Elden's delivery is terrible. I'm not surprised at all that they had to do so many takes, if that's the kind of performance he was giving them to work with.

Def your opinion and valid, but people are divided even here on the meme. OTOH Charlie Cox seems to go out of his way to support Foggy's inclusion and importance in Matt's life, so there's that.

Well, he's read the comics. He knows Matt needs Foggy.

Nothing's wrong with him. He's not attractive and he's onscreen nonetheless, so some people hate him/think they could be in Elden's place (see Patton Oswalt).

Not attractive? He's alright. He's definitely not UNattractive. :)

I mean, he has a cute smile and in the right lighting and hair he's great, but most of the time he's really average-looking

I mean, I find him sometimes way too nice and also quite frankly passive-aggressive.

So he's a decent, non-aggressive/confrontational character who doesn't want his friends to be shot in the face. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
