Chris was a rather unnecessary character who kept whining about how lonely he is because his parents(who are freaking millionairs) don't have time for him even though he has a big mansion with a swimming pool, three friends who constantly hang out with him, his grandpa who constantly hangs out with him, his uncle who constantly visits and hangs out with him and his two servants who are paid to get him everything he wishes for. Nobody can really identify with him. Normal kids don't have millionair parents, lonely kids don't have friends(and usually no millionair parents), kids whose parents don't have time for them don't get everything they want and millionair's kids with friends and everything have no reason to keep whining about such a thing. Funny thing, they actually did this kind of story right with Helen. Anyway, he felt like he was taking away from the story and characters rather than adding to them. We came for Sonic, not for the family issues of some spoiled brat. And let's not forget his creepy gay crush on Sonic which almost destroyed both universes.

Cosmo came off as Mary Sue-ish at times and the whole "last survivor of a race"-thing was much more interesting when they did it with Knuckles. That whole romantic arc with Tails came off as pretty weird considering they never showed any interest in each other before. Now don't get me wrong, I like the plant concept behind Cosmo, I just think it was poorly executed.
