Even by season 2 I could tell the writers had no idea what to do with Marissa and decided to just traumatize her over and over again
Like she goes from someone who wants college to someone who can’t fill out an application due to trauma flashbacks and it just…makes me sad
I like Marissa but I also can’t help but be slightly annoyed how much she undermines Ryan a lot especially after she goes to public school
Idk like your’e talking about Ryan’s brother…too another guy? Idk I’m a little confused I guess
Sorry but I found it a little redundant that they made jimmy go through finance issues and money borrowing again, the only difference is he doesn’t have his old job as a financial advisor. What’s the point of his return?
I say this as a non-white person (I’m Indian) but like Ryan, Kirsten, Sandy, Marissa, and Summer are really the only white people I can stand
This show has reconfirmed to me how weird white people especially rich white people are both irl and on screen
Edit: white people don’t face racism btw don’t be coming into my replies with that
Another edit: wow I did not know I offended the white community so much omg so sorry you guys definitely faced the same micro aggressions and racism I did growing up Indian in America
You barely know Kirsten and your’e going to manipulate her to stay?? The way she immediately stopped crying and wiped her her fake tears off the second Kirsten left and took a sip of alcohol…
I’ve realized I like Summer and Marissa because they actually have personalities outside of being rich
I do not like the others
Someone tell me if I’m gonna like Taylor throughout the rest of the show because first impressions I do not like her
Edit: she’s a bitch I hate her. Imagine being so pathetic you hunt down that Dean of safety or whatever his name is because you want to humiliate Marissa in front of everyone
Edit: yup sorry I’m gonna remain hating her after this I hate petty teenagers main reason I can barely stand old teen dramas I’m only continuing because the OC has some decent writing left still
Edit: I’m sorry she’s still so stuck up after Ryan is allowed back I can’t take this guys I’m even flipping her off every time she’s on my screen
I was willing to applaud Julie for being a protective mother…until she pulled the Ryan shot me blackmailing bullshit to Trey
I’m actually very surprised right now because I truly was fooled into thinking Trey would improve himself…and he ends up being an assaulter and a horrible person overall.
Ryan was always destined to be a Cohen and live in Newport he was just born to the wrong fucking pair of parents because the universe decided to make him live through shit before that
Honestly guys maybe being 21 is the reason why i just can’t take the very angsty teenager core part of this show seriously sometimes but like imo Summer should have supported Seth for his dreams like I don’t think your problem was him actually doing the graphic novel but with him
But also I’m sorry I’m almost done with season 2 and I still really don’t like Seth
Don’t spoil it in detail but can someone tell me which season this man becomes more likeable or tolerable at least
Like I said I know I’m only 21 and yea I was teenager only 3 years ago but I swear to god I feel way different of a person now than I was at 18, so I’m literally just rolling my eyes when Seth is…being Seth
I’m only still watching the show because the actual drama between not only the teenagers or young adults is good but also between the adults as well but other than that…
Oh I also am watching because Ryan is the least toxic main character ever compared to other shows I’ve seen so
My problem is when friends ask me what my specific type in men are I don’t know how to really tell them it would be genuinely someone similar to Elijah Mikaelson…without the homicidal darkness of the red door, of course, lol
Like his other qualities with his charm and personality is something I crave for
I don’t know how much of a hot take this is because I’m also very weary of people on Reddit attacking me so if this is a hot take, sorry…
But I think Eric managed to be the one character they didn’t fuck up…until towards the end.
By the end the writers really fucked up everyone. Idk if that’s common knowledge or not but yea
But I do think Eric managed to escape it until it eventually caught up to him as well
I’m not really sure how to word my posts anymore because people seem to have issues either way with me
I wanted to list two different opinions in the same post because I didn’t feel like making two separate posts because they are honestly short worded opinions:
My first opinion is I don’t understand Langdon glazers and santos glazers because both have plenty of flaws. And based off of what I’ve seen I don’t understand why some groups baby each individual?
My second opinion is that Langdon’s addiction recovery should have been about Langdon alone. I honestly did not understand the story choice of making it more about how Robby reacts to him coming back. I have not been in that situation before but I don’t think your recovery would be about another person?-
As someone who likes Santos and Langdon I do not understand just Langdon glazers but I also don’t understand just Santos glazers. I also don’t care if this was discussed before because I am not scrolling through this sub to look for old threads, I still wanna discuss it under my post
Anyway, I find Santos way more likeable in season 2. Because she’s not pushing at boundaries as much and sure she’s stressed about charting but overall she seems more grounded
Take season 1. Here’s my problem. Some of you wanna act like she wasn’t trying to push against boundaries, and wasn’t trying to act like she could do anything she wanted without checking with a senior resident. She didn’t even bother checking with Samira that one time she gave orders about a patient and did everything herself. I do think Langdon had a right to be mad about that.
Do I think that he should have berated her in later episodes over that female patient in the ice bath? No. He definitely over reacted-and we now know that he wasn’t acting like himself anyway due to the addiction. His real self is more like the man we see in season 2. But I do agree that he still should have not berated her like that in front of everyone, that was so toxic that we even see Robby in disbelief for how toxic it was.
But I truly can not stand some of you babying Santos. In all honesty, in season 2, I find Santos’s anger a bit childish. Btw I’m not saying she can’t be mad at him for berating her and making her feel insecure, but where I find her anger childish is that even she can’t see she was stepping out of line as an intern, and can’t even realize she’s not supposed to let her beef get in the way of her work.
She steps out of line as a R2 by having an attitude in front of the patient so bad that Garcia has to call her out on it. I still find her a bit more likeable and tolerable in season 2, but I also don’t like her character writing where she sees nothing wrong with acting that way in front of a patient. As patient is not supposed to see your personal beef. And I also don’t understand why some of you irl want to act like she did nothing wrong with behaving that way. That’s why I find her anger childish sometimes. Because she can’t keep her anger not showing and it does come across as whiny and childish.
And for Langdon glazers-that man still probably has a whole season of redeeming himself. What he did left a lasting impact emotionally. However, I don’t like the way they made his addiction recovery about Robby. His recovery is not about Robby, it should have been about him trying to start the baby steps in redeeming himself.
I went into that theater thinking people on twitter and here were joking when they said they felt emotional over Rocky…
Well. You guys were right.
I did not think I would have the urge to cry over a space being and his mate.
And my brother was next to me so I had to play it cool cause he’s not the type to really cry over movies
I stopped liking the villain of season 2. I don’t even remember her name, was it Maryann?
Idk her powers were cool for like an episode and the set up to her first presence is good too but like at some point I was just like can we wrap this up like stfu Maryann
I’m not expecting this to be a popular opinion. In all honesty I think True Blood had some mini cracks forming since season 2. It just didn’t get very bad until later. In the earlier seasons you can kind of ignore those cracks you know but later on you couldn’t.
I hate her so much you are jealous and pathetic that you sabatoge lindsey from getting adopted AFTER SEEING HOW HAPPY SHE WAS FROM THE NEWS?
Marissa will always hate your guts it’s not about her that you are doing this!
JULIE COOPER DESERVES NOTHING
Maybe it’s my daddy issues but I find Peter Gallagher and by association Sandy Cohen hot and charming
SORRY
It’s actually sad to me that Daniel’s new ongoing role is on some shitty CW series. I’m sorry with him playing Elijah, that man does have the talent to have big opportunities with the big 3 platforms like Netflix, prime and Hulu
Like the talent is there
If the writers actually knew how to write FRIENDSHIP angst (because santos is a lesbian thanks) santos and Langdon would make really good unconventional friends.
I can’t be the only one that sees similarities in them
Edit: didn’t know the writers had so many shooters, lmfao
