S04.E10: It Was Good Until It Wasn’t

[jewel21]

Quote

The gang deals with the fallout of the explosive events that took place at the luau: Aaron must deal with the accountability of his actions at the party, Zoey turns to Pops and Ruby for advice, and Ana and Vivek do their best to keep the secret of their hookup under wraps. Jazz struggles with her feelings for Des. Nomi processes her run-in with Phil.

I spent Aaron's final monologue rolling my eyes, so I cheered at Zoey's response to him. Pops and Ruby were wonderful, as usual. I wish their spin-off plans hadn't fallen through.

Ahhh, my favorite show to hate-watch while doing chores. 

Nomi is not thinking like a mother. You don't have to be friends, but you can co-parent. He can provide some support/babysitting and get to know his daughter. She's not a kid anymore, she's 21. 

I swear Zooey believes the sun isn't the center of the universe. Seriously,  she's a terrible girlfriend, Aaron should run. He feels weird about her and Luka because literally a day after she ended it with Luka, she jumped to kiss him. Any time they have trouble, she'll run to Luka. 

On another note, Luka is the biggest hypocrite on the small planet we call Earth. He's a woke feminist who believes he can control his sister's body and sexual choices. In previous seasons, he's been incredibly sexist to Zoey, while talking about how enlightened he is. But yeah, his adult sister decides to have a consenting adult relationship with a wonderful guy and he engages in physical violence? No amount of kooky new age sayings can justify that. 

The twins rule. As always.

Is it my imagination or this show getting darker and darker? I mean in terms of cinematography, I feel we're being told we're watching something at the bleakness level of Breaking Bad or something (it's particularly glaring when they have Johnson Family Home scenes, as compared to the way the home looks on the mothership). It's bizarre and laughable. I miss the college show.

Is this the last season? It has to be, right?

In the Zoey, Aaron, Luka triangle, I hate all of them equally. I hope they continue to torment each other, so no one else has a chance to get involved with any of them. Keep the BS amongst yourselves, you three!

I'm definitely hate watching, and have been for a while.

There really are no heroes in the Luka/Zoe/Aaron triangle, they have all really sucked. I mostly spent this episode rooting for Vivek. Poor guy just wanted to see some whales...

Luka is probably my least favorite of the three though, he is just such a massive hypocrite. He acts like this super enlightened feminist when he clearly has massive control issues involving the women in his life, when  he was with Zoey and now with his sister, a grown ass woman who apparently isn't allowed to date a perfectly nice guy just because he's friends with Luka. As much as Luka's smug ass is really friends with anybody. 

How is this show still around but we already lost Mixed-ish?

I miss Mixed-ish, a show which dealt with social issues with humor, had great actors and great characters. I actually didn't hate-watch it. 

Still wish Zoey could have learned more from her mother's life. 

I also want to know about Vivek's family issues.
