[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didnt love the ending.

The only character I felt was happy at the end was Hilary. Got rid of her cheating husband? Check. Got rid of her abusive cheating dad and got her feelings off her chest? Check.

She started wearing colors and got a colorful new rug. I was wondering if her love of beige colors was in some way a rejection of her indian heritage/persona/identity. The first time we see her in colored clothing is at the indian prayer thing. Now that her dad is dead she feels free to re-embrace that part of her identity.

Mercy, ugh. Idk what I feel about her. She is a crappy person who constantly makes bad choices and blames it on the curse (I was so glad when her HK gf called this out). I dont see any growth. 
David was a garbage person throughout and I hated him and hated seeing him on the screen. Dude must be a good actor to elicit this sort of rage lol.

Margaret abandoning her two living children was so wrong to me. I cannot - cannot- imagine the pain of losing a child. But you can't just give up on the ones that are still alive. Her husband wasnt even surprised or sad. Just "Ok fine, bye". He was tired of her sh!t. And where is she gonna live? Her crapshoot apartment?

I'm a bit conflicted at Esse going with the fam, because I really wanted her to be able to go be with her own family. But considering what Margaret did, it's good that Esse is there. And I wonder if that's why she wanted to convince her to go so bad? She doesn't feel as bad abandoning her children knowing that Esse is there to look after them?[/quote]

This is pretty reflective of my reaction as well. What's funny is that Hilary was my least favorite character of the main women (yes, even more than Mercy) throughout most of the show, but I did like how they wrapped up her storyline and I liked the visual of her finally embracing color in her wardrobe and life. I also really hated her tight beige clothes during the rest of the show, so partly I was just relieved to see that actress in clothing that actually complemented her skin for once.[/quote]
