[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG, I am so disappointed.  The ending was ridiculous.  Also, the man (Martin?) who Adam was representing - didn’t he say he had raised a SON???  No mention of a daughter.  It just made no sense.  [/quote]

No-he says child, toddler, Chris-but never son or daughter. [/quote]

And at one point Adam makes a statement about Martin's child and uses "they/their" as a pronoun, which was inconsistent with his pronoun use before -- the gender of Martin's child shouldn't have been unknown to him at that point.   I was actually wondering if Martin's child was transgender and Adam was aware of that.

Adam not recognizing Chris would have made sense because she was a lot younger than he was, but that also seems to be inconsistent with Chris being Adam's father's child, since if Adam's father was still near by, wouldn't Adam be kind of around?  Or  were he and his father estranged at that point?

One thing I did like about the show was that it was diverse -- there were characters that were of African/Caribbean/Asian descent without their ethnicity being part of the story.  That type of representation doesn't tend to happen in US shows, and if it does, it's one or two characters, not a third of the cast.

I binged it while home sick, it was perfect for that, because I wasn't thinking too hard about it, nor did I have too long to think about it.  [/quote]

All of this.  I’m black so this was nice to see and it didn’t seem at all forced.  [/quote]
