Oh, you know. Can’t complain. How about you?
Have you seen the show Churails? I’ve watched the first 3 episodes and I’m really enjoying it. The topics they’ve covered so far are pretty intense but I think they’re doing a good job in not making them unbearable to watch.
I honestly hadn’t even heard of it? Wow…I’ve never seen anything like this from Pakistan, they tend to go so deliberately for the full-blown drama. This is so slick and like…hmm. Obviously they won’t have any gay, right? I’m assuming that going in, lol, which, *sigh*, but yeah, I’m interested! Thanks for the heads up.
Do you think Netflix will cancel Away too and saying it was because of covid?
It’s certainly possible, but it did really well, in the US and abroad, and they seem to be giving it more of a push, much more than TBH got, I would be surprised if they did. But then, I was honestly kinda surprised at TBH’s…not cancellation, necessarily, but its treatment, the lack of support behind it. The cancellation itself seemed almost logical given how they’d been treating it from the start. Though still surprising and sad when it came.
Teenage bounty hunter got cancelled
I know! I’m so disappointed. On so many fronts, tbh. First, I just liked the show and obviously especially Stepril and the twins and wanted to see what would happen to them. Second, it was a really good show, well done in every way, pacing, writing, casting, acting, so it’s disappointing to see it not succeed when it did everything right. And then, I’m just sad for them all, they seemed really nice. Plus, it bothers me that it didn’t really get the promo others did, so it just seems unfair all around.
I’m hoping things can still turn around, especially if part of this was due to covid, which seems unpredictable. It’s not like people are gonna go and make something else in the meantime, everyone’s waiting, for ALL these shows.
I noticed the fandom is pretty split on this when i ask so i will ask you as well.. Would Sterling or April be owed an apology in season 2. Some say no April was super messy knowing how Sterling felt about her being mean to her an flirting with her ex boyfriend right in her face so fucked up that pretty much evens our the dad thing. Than others are saying kind of true but she cause April alot of pain too. An she let april open up to her knowing shes why this is happening to April.
Ooh, good question. (Haha, me trying to be upbeat and act like nothing’s changed. :/)
I would think both are, no? Both doing things that hurt the other doesn’t just, like, cancel things out. You’ve laid it out quite clearly, while April is absolutely within her rights to change her mind and not come out and even break up, acting how she did at the lock-in wasn’t justified.Though I’m not sure, after that conversation, if there’d been a season 2 if Sterling would have ever have gotten an apology for specifically that. April DEFINITELY would have gotten one for Sterling hiding EVERYTHING about her dad but probably too late, probably after she found out some other way.
What do you predict wil happen to Sterling and April if we get a season 2? (Spare no details ?)
Well. The irony of this being next up on my to-answer list. Dammit. I don’t even know what I was gonna say, was kind just gonna improvise as I answered but now I’m just sad. Dammit, Netflix. I wonder if covid was a major factor, since they tape in Georgia.
That episode of when Blair is running back and forth from the record company and her date with Miles was such a sitcom/90s moment. This show was so much fun and I appreciated its lightheartedness and goofy moments.
Yeah! It was very classic even ‘80s sitcoms farce, getting into these silly situations. There was a lot of that kind of comedy, like with Bowser and when he picked up Blair’s call during the raid and like, ALL the times they went after skips, really, lol. Really enjoyed how fun it was, even aside from that type of comedy, the show as a whole seemed closer to the ‘90s style instead of the edgy darker teen stuff that’s been taking over.
In for all mankind 1×06, when Pam asked “does that scare you?” And Ellen replies, “no” I didn’t understand Pam’s reaction to that.. would you be so kind to explain it from your perspective?
Sure! I can offer my interpretation.
So, this scene starts off with Ellen having gotten anxious enough about the FBI investigation into Larry to voice her fears and frustration and suggest they take a break, right. When they’re talking about it being a phase, I don’t think Ellen even thinks that, she just grabs onto it in the middle of their argument as a possible escape, a fantasy, because otherwise this FBI thing, in one way or another, is her whole life. She originally sat up to resolve this unease by either being reassured or instigating a breakup, whichever way it ends up going.
When she says that she feels like a different person with Pam, she means it in the sense that, oh, this is “normal” me and now this is the dangerous part that likes a woman at all. She’s just talking about sexuality. But Pam means it in the sense that there’s the regular non-loving Ellen part and the loving-Ellen part as the two different versions of her, she doesn’t just mean sexuality, she’s narrowing it to Ellen specifically, making it suddenly deeper and more romantic and like, signaling a shift in their relationship, something more meaningful and committed and long-term. She knows that’s clear to Ellen too and kind of challenges Ellen, considering the conversation they’re having, if that scares her and Ellen’s “no” means, on some level, accepting that shift, instead of pulling away. So it’s a big step forward for them and Pam is, I think, emotional and pleased about it.
There’s a cut with all Lu and Mei’s scenes?
Yep: https://twitter.com/_allthelilies/status/1302607861579567104
There’s a scene earlier on that’s left unsubbed in this cut, where Mei orders Ram to let her talk to Lu alone, it’s subbed in the official versions. I love it, it’s very charged and secretly romantic once you know, so I’d hunt it up if possible, from ep 2, around 14 minutes in. If you can’t, I did make a gifset of it.
If I’m being honest I don’t agree that Lu and Mei’s storyline was only in episode 3 their storyline was in all the episodes where Lu talked about Mei with someone becuz I feel that that really informed their storyline too. The way that Lu talked about Mei to other people and how even at the end of the season Lu wanted Mei reinstated. Plus I consider the scenes they had before their relationship was revealed as part of their SL too cuz that showed their dynamic in public
Oh, I do agree, the couple of scenes in ep 2 with Mei speaking to Lu as CAPCOM and seeing Lu so reverential and emotional when others bring up Mei, that’s part of them, but while I usually encourage people to watch full shows to see interactions and character behavior outside the ship because I think the experience is enhanced, I couldn’t really justify suggesting the whole other 9 eps just for those few scenes. Not when it’s so little and there are so many scenes without even Lu.
Of course, if they want to watch from the start, that’s great, I’m not really speaking to them so much as the people who are reluctant to start at all or continue past ep 1, I think ep 3 is still worth the try, or even better, All the Lillies’ cut which includes scenes past it.
