I'm on a rewatch and I think I'm in season 6 when Tammy is hanging out with a small group of lgbtq folks who seemed really great. She seemed to get so much out of that friendship group and seemed really happy. Does she still hang out with them? That would certainly help with the co-depency issues.
I am laughing SO hard... TEARS! I tell you! I definitely would have made it out of Hadestown too, from this perspective! hahahaha! how about you?
I'm re-watching again, because I can't help it. I love all of the characters so much. This watch has me focused on Hill. I wish she had a slightly larger role because I think she did so much for Mary and was so thoughtfully looking out for her. I don't know how her series role aligns with her role in the book, but I hope they are similar. I'd love to have a back story on Hill! Anyone know about any stories focused on Hill?
I absolutely adore Mary's relationship with Lizzie and how it evolves in this series. I love Lizzie's growth as much as Mary's. And at the end of the episode when Lizzie, holds Mary by the shoulder's and says, "Mary, you will flourish!"
Every. single. time. it makes me tear up. Episode 7 is probably my favorite so far (I'm in the US and haven't seen episode 10 yet!) both for that single line, and Lizzie's need to protect Mary, AND for Mary's interactions with Mr. Collins. I know he's not meant to be likable in the original books, but I really like this version of him. And I appreciate so much that Mary sees his worth and understands his depth, and he, in return of her.
However, Lizzie's one little line, just makes me feel so many things. I think it tells me, so many of us need a real reminder that just as we are, with all our quirks and faults, bring so much to the table. And we need to not just believe that for ourselves, but be reminded by the people we love.
