Desperate to find a way home, Tiff leads the girls to her adult self, who accomplished so many of her childhood dreams but she isn’t everything that was expected. Together they work to decode Larry’s ledger as the Old Watch close in.

A rave party in an abandoned factory. We're in the 90's alright.

For a while I thought Adult!Tiff's boyfriend would turn out to be Larry.

I don't know what it is about Adult!Tiff that makes me not trust her.

I loved the budding Mac/Erin friendship. I know KJ/Mac is where it's at, but Mac and Erin had wonderful chemistry. Not necessarily anything but friendship chemistry, but very entertaining to watch.

You know, I've seen people try to dub this show as Female Stranger Things but this more Yellowjackets to me. Time Jumping although this is more literal, different time periods, female centric, etc. Not a bad thing. It's just an observation.

I didn't read the books but I was hoping for one show about teens without one of them questioning their sexuality. It's not bad in itself. Representation is good. But, it's EVERY show with teens now. It's getting really predictable.

21% of Gen Z kids identify as LGBT. I realize that's current statistics and this is a show set in the past, but there's no reason to believe that more people are actually queer now, just that more people are comfortable being out. Having queer characters in teen shows, even in shows set in the past, does not ring false to me at all -- especially when they're closeted and conflicted.
