VIP2This show is tons of fun, but I have some constant gripes about it: 1) I still can’t buy into Roz & Harvey. I just don’t see the connection or chemistry there. 2) I am enjoying these episodic mini-adventures with the various terrors, but it feels like things are wrapped up too perfectly — and forcefully — to the last season’s detriment. I think the final Big Bad would’ve worked better as one epic badass buildup. The threat feels super minuscule at this point. 3) Ambrose explaining anything is a bit hard to swallow, always delivered way too intensely and heavy-handedly. He always seems to act at a particular speed that he rarely diverts from. Everything is always the worst crisis imaginable. 4) I wish they’d stick with Sabrina wanting to remain independent and soul-searchy for a bit. She’s too good for either Nick or Harvey, and it’s frustrating to see her perpetually pining for them. 5) We need more Salem.

yes. Ambrose is really overacting all the time now...
I'm not completely sure, but I feel like this episode did a disservice to the trans community by implying that to be a manly man you must have a deep voice, hairy body and bulging muscles.
And is it me or do Harvey and Roz have zero chemistry together?

@abtr yes, not all men have those characteristics or are super manly but as most trans people, Theo seems to have body dysphoria.
Theo's body, voice, etc will never look completely right to him as he's been perceived as a girl in that body for most of his life. I have no personal experience in this, but it seems like people that experience body dysphoria want to achieve that irrefutable gendered look. It makes sense that if you want to be perceived as a man, you'll desire big muscles, strong jaw, body hair and deep voice. It's exactly the opposite of what he was born with, the opposite of the body that makes him uncomfortable.
Many trans women are incredibly girly too, and that's fine. They are not damaging any community by doing what makes them comfortable, and same goes here for Theo.
If he wants to be a more manly man, that's okay.
If he wants to be a more androgynous man, that's okay.
If he wants to be a more feminine man, that's is also okay.
Either version of him will be equally a man and we shouldn't say that wanting one or the other is better.
Susie/Theo story part is nonsense. Seriously what the hell does this have to do with the story. It’s like the writers want to throw their own views into the show. Nonsense...

@d0ndada jock blonde bully, is that you?
I seriously can see why so many people like this; sure is different and unique but for some reason it just didn't "grabbed" me. Tried 4 episodes...that´s it, I didn't connect with the story or the characters, and with so much show I´m currently following i gave up...
