BIG SKY yes!!!! I was so worried when watching the first episode I was like “ladies you are fighting over THAT guy????” but then thankfully that was fixed by the end of the episode lol (flashbacks are a little cringe for me. She’s too young bro!) Anyways, I hope cassie x jenny continue to investigate together instead of separately like they had been, those two are the reason I decided to start watching!!

I know! Like, sure, Ryan Philippe and all, but within the show he seemed kind of a mess. I absolutely did not expect the end but I was a whole lot more interested in the show after. The flashbacks they choose are so random and like, I mean, not to be judgy but so corny and dreamy. Maybe that’s the intention, that they were just a fantasy? 

And yes, definitely, more Cassie and Jenny teaming up.

And another anon:

the big sky women getting together would complete the love triangle they have going on. wait does it count as a love triangle if [spoiler] is dead? either way they should find the girls and find each other along the way.

sidenote, am i the only one who’s like kids sick of the kidnapping plot now? i feel like they should have let Grace get away and then instead of finding the fisher guy and getting shot we have like an episode of her finding her way to town before collapsing on like cassies doorstep and they have to wait for her to recover before they can figure out where the other girls are.

Lol, indeed, I dunno if it’s a true Korrasaming when the uh, [redacted] is dead but it should count!

Um, well, while I very much want the kidnapped girls to be safe and was upset Grace was caught again, it is the whole premise of the season, right, once that’s over what’s left? Your suggestion isn’t bad, though, where she still manages to escape…but I guess they want the sisters together for now. 

I AM curious, though, I heard that they’d received an additional back order for some more eps for this season, so then…what are the existing eps up to? Surely if there’s a plot that needs to fully be decided and planned out, it’s this one? Were they originally just half rescued and it was going to end on a cliffhanger? Were they rescued and the additional eps handle the aftermath? Cassie and Jenny aren’t gonna start a new case in just six eps, right, so I dunno.

And another anon:

i’m really enjoying big sky thank you for giffing it!!!! 

Ah, thanks, no problem!

A few other field notes, this one is spot on especially Shelby (poor girl). Field Note #61 – How each girl learned to swim: Martha took a class with her mom; Toni would sneak into her neighbor’s above-ground pool by night until she kind of just taught herself; Rachel and Nora had private lessons; Fatin’s grandparents had an infinity pool; Leah learned in Lake Tahoe at a family reunion; Dot went to the quarry; and Shelby’s dad threw her into the country club pool sink-or-swim style.

Aww, both Toni and Shelby. Their particular dynamic really is this clash of opposites so extreme they come around and meet on the other side. Is it better to have effectively no parents or ones that are so present they become controlling and scary? Trick question, neither is better, both suck. Which they’re now realizing, people who have what you thought you wanted can still be suffering. They have a lot more common than they might have expected.

Thanks for sharing these! They’re interesting and enlightening.

Hi, have you heard of Druck? It’s the German version of Skam and the lead of the 6th season is a lesbian. No pressure to watch nor to gif or anything, I just thought I’d let you know

I had heard about it insomuch as a non-anon told me a few hours ago, heh. I mean, I’m very vaguely aware of the Skams but this wasn’t on my radar, no. I will keep an eye on it, for sure, but so far the Skams and I have not exactly gotten along like a house afire. Thanks for the extremely polite heads up!
