It takes two or three episodes to get the rhythm but by then the series becomes amazing. Great writing, ambitious direction, a very good cast, nice themes and an actually marvelous actress.
My feelings about Serena are so drastically contradictory. On the one hand, I love her. She's a strong, smart, confident woman and I cheer when she stands up for herself. On the other hand, she's helping promote these horrible ideals and standards that belittle women and keep them oppressed (herself included) Girl, what are you doing?
Also, people do such horrible, monstrous things in the name of God and religion. And not only in fiction, but in reality too. Such savages. And such hypocrites. Making up any sort of excuses to justify all their wrongdoings and suit their own needs and interests.
But I loved that Canada is depicted as the place where people are rational and kind, in opposition to the crazies that have control of the US. I wonder if the writers did that on purpose or if it's like that in the book . Maybe the author of the book had some kind of premonition LOL
One of the best movies that Disney has made. The visuals and animation is incomparable to any studio (except Disney itself with Pixar) and the story is so well balanced, with (meta-)comedy and drama/suspense mixed so well together. The voice actors really makes you believe in a world where animals can be anthropomorphic and live in a society. A must-watch for children but also anyone who appreciate the beauty of animated storytelling.
This show is so fucking dumb but I can't stop watching it because I'm in love with Rita Volk.
The thing that really bothers me about this show is the fact that the word "bisexual" just doesn't exist.
Since season 1 we're wondering about Amy's sexuality and it's totally fine she hasn't figured it out yet. But in this episode Karma once again reminded Amy that she apparently likes boys as much as she likes girls. And the only word that ever comes up is "confused".
Why is the word "bisexual" so non-existing in every media? It's not even about defining Amy's sexuality. It's about the fact that this show tries to be different, understanding and open to everything (They added polygamy and monogamy, and they even included an intersexual character!), but in the end it's just about being gay or straight with nothing in between. Again.
Oh, and as a side note: I find it absolutely awful that the only actual lesbian (Reagan) is portrayed as bi-phobic. (But even SHE doesn't use the bad b-word!)

Am I the only one? I find the drugs in drink, sex, blackmail subplot extremely cringeworthy. I hope they don't make a love story out of it. What a way to romanticise abuse.
There's no moral ambiguity, drugging someone to sleep with you is pure evil and wrong, even if he did it for something he might regard as noble reasons... well let's see how it turns out.
I broke down when his dad finally hugged him, shedding his own shame from the abuse in his past.
I did NOT expect to get emotional watching this show. But here we are lol. It was all actually really sweet.
Also, kudos to James Marsden for signing up for something like this. If I wasn’t already a fan…
Rooting for Mai because all the other players seemingly forgot how Ashley did Trey dirty in the glass bridge.
Really enjoying this, looking forward to the finale. Screw Ashley though, she wasn't a teamplayer on the bridge and that's fine but then own it instead of pretending Mai is wrong.
This episode, the whole season actually, thus far has been brilliant. I was ready to write the show off after the last two seasons but not anymore.
One of the best episodes ever
Uhhh I don’t feel Otis and Maeve together :rolling_eyes:
Honestly, I think Ruby deserves someone better than Otis. She deserves someone who loves her as much as she loves them!
I enjoyed this, way better than I had been led to believe
So glad this is back and that we didn't have to wait 2+ years for it, like most shows now, miss this chaotic blessing of a show
Loosey really is the new Jan. What a legend... she will be missed. (They totally dogged her with that choice of song for the lipsync, too.)
I'm glad they're back to the tried and true 'top 3' formula for the finale.
Usually, most queens grow on me over time, but with the elimination, all I can think is, "Crap, I have to watch Luxx next week again too!" Confidence is one thing, but her extreme arrogance is just obnoxious.
I’m so over Lux. Why is she so bitter?
This right here, the episode that saved a whole season!
We had double saves or a lot of queen not going home for a lot less.
I'm quite upset, that was one of the best lipsync ever in the franchise.
David Fincher found retired in his home.
Legitimately A-tier Black Mirror - it's been a while. Maybe even top 5 episodes for me. It has the feeling of the first two seasons, British pseudo-cynicism and the darkest modern TV has to offer, while also being something the show has never attempted before.
It felt like Charlie Brooker wrote this one from a dark place, especially with that digustingly evil ending.
FOR YOUR FILM,
MOM
Sheer fun. I laughed, I danced, I sung along.
Ru, I know we're supposed to be excited when you perform, but as a competitor, with such a lacklustre performance, you'd be Pork-Chopped on your own show.
Luxx was invisible. Idk why they saved her.
this was the first episode of this season i actually liked! love this cast. my top three is sasha, anetra and mistress, with mistress winning the crown!
