@aniela-krajewska I don't disagree, but are you really suggesting sapphic protagonists should get special plot armour?
@tesbreag actually no, but if the lead of a show is going to die, i expect it to make sense narratively, be meaningful and have repercussions on the story. V's death happened out of the blue in the last 3 minutes of the series finale and it was clearly meant to shock the audience and not much else. Given the nature of the show, I wouldn't have been fundamentally opposed to her (or both her and Eve) dying, but it could've been done so much better.

Can't believe this episode ended with them hugging and absolutely nothing else happened after that.
In all seriousness, I thought we as a society were over killing sapphic characters for shock value, but I guess not. What a disappointing conclusion to a horrible season. Phoebe Waller-Bridge created such a fantastic show and Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer consistently knocked their performances out of the park, and for what? Season 2 was already a letdown, but after that the show just became a parody of itself and it was clear the new showrunners had no idea what to do with these characters. The last 3 minutes of this ep were pure clownery. How groundbreaking to kill off one of the leads and leave the other in anguish. I hope Laura Neal doesn't cut herself on all that edge.
I guess at least Sandra got a Golden Globe, Jodie got an Emmy, and they got to dive tongue first into each other's mouths. Good for them. I hope their next projects treat them better.
