That really bothered me.

Me as well. First is confused me and later it really annoyed me.

Huh?

First PP here. Different people may get different photos, and the same person may get different photos at different times. For the first couple weeks it was on my watchlist, I got the photo with Dee and Silvie. Now when I pull up Netflix, it's just a photo of Dex. I've never had a photo that includes Emma, though.

Just finished. I cried.

My photo is of Emma and Ian!

Another random thought - why was Dex’s sister mentioned by his mother, but never seen?

Is this a remake of Same Time Next Year?

I don't know what you're talking about. I was slightly obsessed with Bridgeton season 2 and read just about everything I could find about it. I don't recall a single article that said Simone Ashley was not good looking enough for the male lead. Not one--the unanimous opinion across all the press was that she was gorgeous and they were a gorgeous couple.

You are just trying to stir up sh$%T.

People are talking about a mismatch in One Day because Ambika is downright not attractive. It has nothing to do with race.

I’m a guy very attracted to her. The male lead is kind of rancid, though certainly ripped.

No. The movie kinda checks in on the two leads on the same date over the years. It's the date they first spent time together.

Nope over here

I wouldn’t have thought anything of her casting or looks if I hadn’t have seen people railing on her on here. I don’t know if it’s racism per se, but I absolutely don’t get how people are saying she’s unattractive. I think they made her sport some less cute haircuts (the bangs) to show passage of time and also to have her look more together toward the end, but she’s cute!

It actually makes me pretty embarrassed to be a white American honestly, if all people can see is one narrow version of beauty.

Guy perspective here: Ambika Mod is very pretty. I couldn’t take my eyes off her in this.

Also, we are 15 pages in and no one has mentioned the amazing soundtrack yet. There are some great songs packed into these episodes.

I don't get why you're being so hostile and I clearly mentioned comments, not articles. As a Tamil woman myself, I was so excited to see Simone as a romantic lead in a Regency show and was curious about people's reactions to her. Until I saw pages of COMMENTS on here and other discussion boards trashing her looks, calling her manly and saying she looked out of place next to the male lead, and how his more petite white costar from s1 was a better fit. If pointing out something that happened is shit stirring, then so be it. The overwhelming love and support she got from the audience was wonderful but I'll never forget what a vocal minority thinks about a tall, dark-skinned Indian woman and how deep the racism runs.

Beautiful series. Just finished it.

Really hated the ending but otherwise highly recommend

Am I confused or did Dex’s mom mention something about his sister? If so, where was she the entire series? I don’t think she was mentioned any other time — unless I misheard it the other time and there is no sister.
