My fav big sis/lil sis pairing in Warrior Nun is Beatrice and Camila. Beatrice telling Camila good job after her first assignment. Beatrice being the first to watch her play piano. Beatrice being proud of Camila finding Ava with the CCTV cameras. Camila referring to her as “Bea.” Beatrice being fondly exasperated with her impatience when they attack ARQ-Tech. Camila being sad about taking Bea’s weapons and asking her for advice. “It takes a special person to make everyone around them smile.” 1/2

Camila picking up on Bea’s feeling for Ava and finding the passage in the journal for her. Beatrice being the one to say “And let’s not forget Camila’s still up there.” They love and support each other so much. And Camila has some of the same bouncy happy energy Ava has so no wonder Beatrice is so fond of her. Hope we get more of them in S2! 2/2

Awwww, all these moments!. I love a lot of the dynamics but this is a favorite of mine too! And I liked how much that “it takes a special person…” line showed that Bea was paying attention and cared to make Camila feel supported and validated even as she was being shoved out of the OCS. Like, it applied to her too, in the end. 🙂 And as you said, Camila noticing a little something between Bea and Ava and giving her that entry with a smile, it’s not just one-sided Bea mentoring Camila. And I love her truly being Bea’s mentee and busting out the gun when they needed her. Definitely hoping they continue this dynamic and expand on it next season.

I gotta say your tag- ‘I’m just so pessimistic when it comes to this franchise’s romantic stories’ is a wholemood. Rewatching Greys rn, mostly for Callie, and her lovelife is… Yikes. Her husband was in love with another, and Calzona was cute but Arizona was weirdly biphobic at times and then the whole cheating plot. AND! They killed half of the show’s main ship. I’m only on ep 8 of Station19 but I have no trust! But Dr. Orgasm gets a girl and they’re cute so I’ll enjoy ’em till they ruin it!

Right, even with the few endgames, the process to getting there seems painful!

Um. Ep 8 of S19? That’s early, huh. Yeah… Some people might consider Marina ruined already, tbh, once you finish the latest season. Depends on your tolerance and the leeway you’re willing to give’em.

danielle and stefania’s chemistry is really top-notch :’) the off-screen content (ah, yesterday’s live was super cute) makes the whole experience of investing in them even more worthwhile. any ideas in terms of what you want to see in s4? i’m hoping that carina now gets her own storylines since i’m assuming that’s what her promotion entails (and for good reason)? it’s great that s19 is being receptive towards feedback and made it a point to take advantage of their awesome chemistry!

Omg, I didn’t even know about the one yesterday! Thanks for telling me! I’d have missed it entirely. Well, I mean, thankfully it got put up on Youtube but I just didn’t even know to check! 

What the heckkkk, they’re so cute! And Jeff! And the whole story of how she found out about getting the series regular spot and awww, she was worried when Krista Vernoff called her! No wonder the other anon was like, they’re such good natural promo for the show and ship and like, even putting this vid aside I was like, yeah, they sure are, can’t disagree! Cosigning that! But they meant specifically this! Awww.

For sure, their investment and excitement just makes it better for us. For season 4…like, honestly, I’d wish for them to talk it out more, not Carina throwing it in Maya’s face but like, actually showing the work Maya’s putting into it and Carina acknowledging it, more of Maya’s mom in their lives. But yes, her own storyline, like, it’s past time. At this point, I’m not even sure if dealing with Andrew’s story will be enough, since that’s being framed very much as an Andrew and Meredith storyline, and it’ll be on Grey’s. Over on S19, I don’t really know what they can offer her professionally? Will she decide to moonlight in that ambulance unit Ben set up? Change fields? Come home and share details of her OBGYN life? Take new courses or try a new specialty? Will it have anything to do with covid? I don’t want to see covid in ANY media ever tbh, but I think Grey’s already said they’ll cover it and I don’t know how a show built around dramatically addressing emergencies won’t… 

But yeah, trepidation at Marina’s future aside, just promoting her is great, going out of their way and putting her with her literal onscreen love interest, I can’t help but think that’s all super cool and definitely a good move.

Is Summerland available to watch somewhere?

Yeah, it’s available on VOD in a bunch of places, I think? I’m not sure if you can buy it yet, in the US you can currently rent it on Vudu and Amazon and probably other places, and I’m sure it’s available abroad as well. And of course if you simply can’t find it, you can look in other places. >_>

Stefania and Danielle are really managing to get so many people on board because of how well they gel off-screen and how much they do for the fans :’) I’m excited and nervous to see how they’re going to incorporate Stefania in the show full-time – glad that Stefania and Danielle are helping the fans cope with the extra long hiatus lol! Shondaland got lucky because they took charge of promoting their own ship (and it’s working)!!

They really did luck out with them! I don’t know how many new people they’re bringing in, but they’re doing a lot to maintain interest, and probably bumping up casual fans into something a bit deeper. Aside from the SM side, they’re just obviously gorgeous and talented and again, that riDICULOUS chemistry. It would have been so horrible to waste it so I’m glad there was someone at least halfway competent behind that decision.

Of course, I could come to rue saying that. I love how knowing Stefania is on S19 now is such a collective fandom roller coaster, excitement and apprehension alternating in waves. Oh, well, as you said, we got a long hiatus to bask in what we have now and the potential for more.

Don’t think I’ve seen any discussion on the fact that Lilith’s name might be a reference to the first woman? That’s as far as my knowledge goes because tbh most of it is just from watching CAOS ahahaha so sending this to you in hopes of more speculation from people who don’t base their religious knowledge off teen Netflix shows

Ooh, yeah, I’ve seen a few mentions of it but not much speculation. Crowdsourcing might be best, aside from your teen Netflix show expertise, I know nothing about this either. 

I will say, though, that when that was brought up in an interview with Simon Barry, and I think it was the VIFF one, he didn’t seem to really indicate they were building up to something significant with the name. He was just like, oh, we took the name from the comic character and her origin story there was that she was half-demon already, which is what we’re seeing our Lilith kind of become, gaining these powers and even the silver hair. He already seemed to be looking ahead and at a different story. So I don’t know if it’ll go back deeper than that, it might just be religious names scattered throughout. But who knows, maybe he was just disassembling, or maybe that person asking the question is what now made him think about how to use that. I don’t even know who Lilith really was, how she could be referenced, so maybe there’s something I haven’t even thought of.
