Just got done watching Station 19 because of your gifs but it’s so dramatic the spoilers didn’t even matter lol. Came back and basically every question I wanted answered you talked about in your tags but one thing idk if I just didn’t see, was why you didn’t like Maya with Jack. I love and want her with Carina. With Jack I’m between indifference and disgust with him but I found Jack to be way more tolerable when he was with Maya. They would for sure be too messy together right now though.

Lol, it is dramatic, isn’t it. Glad my tag essays addressed most of what you wanted to know!

Oh, I just hate Jack in general. Not for any lofty reasons, not because he’s Offensive or Problematic in any particular way, I just don’t like him. I mean, I could give you reasons but it’d be subjective, and as I’ve said, who in S19 (or Grey’s or PP) hasn’t made themselves unlikable at one point or another (except Carina, lol). 

I didn’t want him with Andy either but when the show suddenly threw him and Maya into the same scenes, I was rolling my eyes at the soapy predictability of it all, since it seemed as much to cause drama with Andy as it was to pair off a couple of mains as a m/f couple. I stopped watching when that happened so I didn’t really see how different he was with her, but when I started watching again after they broke up, he was being all snippy and catty so I was like, good riddance.

Season 1 & 2 vs. Season 3

Season 1 & 2 vs. Season 3

I love Betty! It doesn’t seem to take itself so seriously and it reminds me of my friends, only we rollerskate instead of skateboarding. I also really like how calm it is despite everything like they tackle issues without it feeling like a lesson you know? And Honeybear is adorable, I totally get her little freakout with Ash.

Yeah! I was watching the latest ep and thinking I keep describing this as laid back and relaxed, but even aside from the sexism baked into the premise, skater girls dealing with how male-dominated skateboarding is, it’s covering metoo, sexuality, drug dealing, and oh, white people having it easier with cops than black people, heavy topics. I guess it’s just that the show makes it seem like they’ll all come through and survive, their bodies and futures and friendships intact.

And aww, that seems really chill, you and your friends. Enjoy it! :p

Oof, Honeybear. Immediately, even as I felt bad for Ash, I felt bad for Honeybear, that kind of freakout is never easy on the person having it, but I hope she’s able to deal with it, even if Ash herself is out of the picture.
