I HAVE heard a lot about it but heh, you’re not wrong, it is the opposite of what I usually watch. Even if it weren’t white and m/f, I prefer my drama filtered through the lens of another genre, so there’s something else to focus on. Pure drama is usually too heavy for me.
i just binged both seasons of sjukt oklar and although i found myself pausing sometimes due to the secondhand embarrassment (ellen really is a mess lol) in the end i still really loved it! if you ever find yourself giffing the show again i know i would really appreciate it
Omg, right! It was hilarious in part because of that but it made for excruciating watching at times. It’s a lot easier the second time because you know when those moments are coming or how bad they don’t end up being. Also, it really helps that as much of a pure unrefined dumbass Ellen can be, Vera just finds it endearing and it all works out.
I’ll definitely try to not let it slip too low on the list!
Can we just talk about how perfect the ending of the episode was? It was so painful and then that switch with the teddy bear heart music from 3×03 that starts and switching from blue sky above death to blue sky where V is. And that turtle neck and touching her neck, the double meaning of it all. I FELT that shit.
It was a great capping off to the whole ep! We were already in shock at Niko and wondering if Eve would really believe Villanelle and done it and what would happen and then here she is, off on her quest.
I definitely appreciated the maybe even TRIPLE meaning of touching the throat of her turtleneck? The hiccups stopping, yep, the nod to turtleneck-wearing Eve, yep, but happening right on the heels of Niko’s death, that sudden feeling of something truly shifting for Eve and, because of their connection, Villanelle too, I liked them leaving us with that final disquieting little touch.
