[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Che falling for Miranda feels extremely unrealistic.
Miranda is a horrible person for leaving Steve and Brady so flippantly.[/quote]

+1  When Che said she was in love with Miranda after 3 weeks of sex, I was like "what??" Not remotely plausible.[/quote]

It’s a well-known lesbian cliché, so yes, plausible.[/quote]

OK, but I can’t get over the fact that it didn’t occur to Che to reach out to Miranda during all the time between missing Miranda’s DM and just happening to bump into Miranda again.  That isn’t how someone behaves when they are in love.  The weed excuse didn’t hold water for me.  Che just wasn’t thinking of Miranda when Miranda wasn’t around.  I really get a predatory vibe from Che: they have a kind of bemused, almost patient and instructional manner with her every time they make an advance, and to me that proves Che knows how inexperienced Miranda is, so Che really shouldn’t have assumed that of course Miranda is in an open marriage.  I think Che is a selfish, immature a**hole who enjoys toying with Miranda, but they certainly aren’t in love with her.  And they know it.

But I’m no Che fan.  I think Che is immature, crude, and selfish, a garbage person all around.

And as for Miranda, I am appalled at her selfishness and cruelty in her treatment of Steve, and I also cannot understand why she is not thinking about how her decision to end the marriage over a crush is going to affect her relationship with Brady.  Brady is a teenager in high school who lives at home.  His mother is way too cavalier about breaking up his home, in my opinion.

I’m a little surprised at how angry this episode made me.  AJLT certainly isn’t the light, frothy escapism I loved about the original series.  AJLT seems confused about who its target audience actually is: is it the middle aged women who loved the original series?  Is it millennials who discovered the original long after it ended and were excited to see something similar in the reboot?  Is it the woke crowd who want to see an LGBTQ relationship?  Right now it is just a weird back-and-forth, no-story mashup.  [/quote]
