No romance would be complete without the zany side characters nudging our leads together, or being a sounding board for them to confide their romantic woes to, while having their own background exploits.

I quite like Julia and Ashleigh from "Funny Story", since they felt like well developed, relatable people, who had problems and lives outside of Daphne and Miles.

Aunt Pete from "Beach Read", and her wife Maggie were fun characters as well, and I liked seeing a depiction of an older same sex couple, which was refreshingly normalized.

Libby's husband and daughters from "Book Lovers", and Charlie's mum and stepdad were all great characters, and I liked seeing them become a found family, and then in a literal sense.

Which supporting characters were your favourites?

A major appeal of the show was the soundtrack and special camera effects used to reflect the year the crime took place, and it was honestly quite effective.

Some episodes, such as "Baby Blues", "The Sleepover" and "The Woods", are meant to stimulate home video, where the footage is deliberately grainy.

In my opinion, the 80's set episodes had the best lighting, effects and soundtrack. I can thank the show for introducing me to songs and artists that I hadn't known of beforehand.

Which decade had your favourite representation?
