Oof, buddy. And a ship on Harlots! You do like to live dangerously. Actually, Liv Tyler returning at all was so unexpected, I don’t know if you’re cursed so much as maaaaybe not picking the most solid of ships, heh.
It was pretty weird how FtP just dropped any mention of Anya as if she never existed, but they do seem to do that with personal relationships, dropping them and picking them up as suits the plot. They did that for pretty much everyone except Jill and Roger. Even Kate/Leonard only got some charged exchanges at the start and then that was it, so if you don’t like it in the one, then I guess you have cause to be grateful about it in the other? Heh.
Re: Cruz, that one, I’ll give you, there was no reason to think her role would be shortened. If anything, the opposite. Like you, I would say, I’m a bit of a romantic and get attached to couples. But Vida is not really that kind of show. I did hear about how Cruz was written this season and that was disappointing but overall, it’s meant to be more a full on drama about these very underserved issues and not something to pin shipping hopes on. Which, we ourselves get so little so it still feels unfair, like, how few shows at all stick with the same f/f couple over multiple seasons, but we can’t hold one show responsible for the whole industry’s failure. It’s still got a lot of good things going for it, so while you certainly don’t have to watch it, I wouldn’t write it off for everyone.
