I think Beth at least was probably just overjoyed to not be around Randall. I would be!

This was very poor writing. Which I blame on this episode’s writer. She seems like she may have gotten the job through nepotism - daughter of a respected director (John singleton) - and regrettably that was reflected in this inferior episode after an otherwise excellent season.

That’s fair. But also you sound like a nice person who didn’t lord your beauty over other people.:) Confidence- good. Vanity making you mean - bad!

Yeah I agree confidence is good, but beauty just should not be the basis for it, in any capacity. It’s absolutely unearned and it has no bearing on your character or how hard you’ve worked. I don’t think, respectfully, that people are frightened by a person who is openly proud of their beauty as much as they are more repelled: the last thing people should be celebrated for is the features conferred them by the accident of birth. And certainly people should not celebrate themselves for it - that’s just gross! (I should add, I enjoy good looking people as much as anyone. Why else am I watching bravo?!)

This is so brilliant. I’m a woman “of color” and this speaks so much more for me than the solemn, reductive declarations that I am constantly oppressed and - even worse- that everyone is inherently racist and we all have to “do the work” (how tiresome that phrase is!) to overcome it. It’s patronizing and harmful and people like Leva are just capitalizing on it.

Ugh that whole discussion made me ill- so sanctimonious and yes, the demands to apologize for ones ancestors were horrifying. I say this as a POC and progressive - this was mean girls masquerading as wokeness.

The first scene alone was tired and irritating. Her loyal boyfriend is just sooo lame, poor protagonist. Just dump the guy if you have so much contempt for him! The comedy was so lazy and just devoid of wit - it’s easy to make fun of nerds, but not clever and certainly not funny. And then the trope with her mother’s carrying on about her increasing undesirability as she gets older- good grief. I just wanted them all to shut up and go away.

Disappointed. This felt much more like a mockumentary than the first season. A lot of the students’ talking heads felt straight out of Parks n Rec or something- too self-aware, knowing commentary. One of the first gals in particular really grated - “I wore tights that day. I...wish I hadn’t.” Come on.

Can't stop laughing at this. I mean maybe it's possible she actually intended to call it labia (Girl Power!) and is just a horrible speller.

I created an account just to "like" this, dorky as that sounds. You nailed it. She forgave the others because they're cool and in the in-crowd, and Jennifer's not. And yet Jennifer stood by her when no else did. If that doesn't reflect Kathryn's character - or lack of it - i don't know what does. Even more repulsive and frankly terrifying was how she treated Jennifer after Jennifer had her baby. The poor woman was in tears, saying "So are you even going to ask about my baby," and Kathryn just glared at her, ice cold. She's disgusting. How about Naomi casually commenting, "Oh, I didn't even care that I called her an escort, because" blah blah blah, all airy and dismissive. And then Ashley looks at her in shock, and Naomi just says "What, why are you looking at me like that," like she's something on the bottom of her shoe. Ugh, she's a B.
