What are the writers doing? This show started out with half the cast being annoying and unlikable characters, and now there's barely anyone left to root for. The plot isn't better as it feels like it's not going anywhere.
Imagine being a cop before you're a person. Actually, scratch that. Imagine being a cop at all. Ruby deservers better.
Loved Annie's makeup this episode.
That's what you get for eating animals, HAHA.
Great performance by Jodie Turner-Smith. Excited to see how this miniseries will differ from the other adaptations of Anne Boleyn's story. If the first episode is anything to go by, it will be better than most of them.
I'm so disappointed that a show with such an interesting premise turned out to be complete and utter trash. There are so many things wrong with this show that listing them all would take too much time. It's exhausting to watch a rape victim being blamed by everyone around him and the fact that the writers thought it a good idea for him to find his happy ending by forgiving his rapist and letting go of his wish to remain child free is absolutely disgusting. What kind of statement are they trying to tell by writing this? Why are they trying to teach their audience that such behaviour is ok? I truly thought we had come further than this. And then there's Marina. A woman who was taken advantage of by a man, gets slut shamed by everyone in every single episode, and ends up married to a stranger so her family will finally get rid of her. I truly do not understand how such stories can be told in this day and age without anyone in the production questioning it.
Eloise needs to provide both Penelope and Daphne with some feminist books. In a historical context they are both victims of a patriarchy that never taught them any better, but as fictional characters I'm disgusted by their actions. Disgusted by Penelope for betraying a fellow woman who has no choice but to do what needs to be done in order to survive, and disgusted by Daphne for having absolutely no respect for her husband's wishes so she decides to rape him in order to get what she wants instead of having an honest conversation with him. This episode is definitely a huge disappointment in what could have been a good show.
That was a great scene between Carrie and Miranda.
This is what I love about Sex and the City, showing that some women want certain things in life, while others do not. It's just too bad that it's focused on so rarely, and that that's basically the only diversity that exists on the show.
Robert was such a great guy and now he's suddenly an asshole who sexually harasses Miranda. You'd think that's a symptom of poor writing, but sadly Nice Guys exist in real life.
Steve making jokes about domestic violence is a big yikes.
Sex and the Slutshaming Ableism.
Americans are so weird for using shoes inside the house.
Remember when this show had jazz music? Good times.
This show is so awfully judgmental. This episode reeks of heteronormativity, homophobia and biphobia.
I really don't understand why someone would want to be friends with Carrie, much less be in a relationship with her.

I don't like this Samantha.
Aidan is making it really hard to like him.
Miranda, girl, if a friend tells you a man is an asshole, she knows what she's talking about.
Calling an animal killer a murderer, Alina is a based vegan.
This is the straightest movie I have ever seen.
When I heard that they were making movies about this event, I was sceptical of movie makers profiting off of the survivors. But if you're going to make a movie, this is the way to do it. Focus on the survivors, not the terrorist and why he did what he did.
Why is the top half of everyone's faces twice as sharp as everything else? Reminds me of fanvideos on Twitter.
They really did Eleanor wrong with this episode. A woman who was cheated on shouldn't regret not fighting harder for her marriage. Also, dumbing down the female characters for the sake of exposition is not great.

Estranged husband and father finds out he has a heart after all... Zzz...
So bad it's almost good.
Who cares about the dean though.
The movie has it's moments and the dialogue is great at times, but the editing feels like a rushed job and the dubbed over dialogue in almost every scene is too noticeable.
