[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did anybody read the book? Are any of these women actual sirens in the book? Like creatures from the deep who sing and enchant people into doing their bidding?[/quote]

I thought it was an interesting spin on the traditional meaning of sirens. Peter clearly accuse Kiki of wrecking his life by having him be estranged from his kids for over a decade, and he was really lamenting throughout the series that he was never going to get those years back. But she rightly pointed out that he went along with it and didn’t do anything to change it aside from just blame her for years.

I think it’s also pretty clear from the ending that Simone was just another “siren” that was not going to work out for him, in 10 or 15 years from now, he would just blame her for ruining his life somehow. She’s young and he’s old, she’s had a dysfunctional childhood she clearly has not dealt with, high likelihood that she screws up big, probably cheats, all kinds of things are gonna go wrong for them in the coming years. You can pretty much bet on it. But again, he’s likely to ignore the role he has played and continue just to blame the women in his life for things going wrong.

Finally this may be a little controversial, but I found it interesting that Ethan said she pushed him. Could it be true? And could she get fed up with Peter’s old ass in the next decade and get him drunk and push him?

Was rather ominous it ended with her overlooking the cliff and literally the series is called sirens. Just a thought.

Either way I found this show totally absorbing and I loved it. [/quote]
