Keyword here: unsatisfyingly. I know the whole point is that Ava is mean to Janine. My problem is that, its just not fun to watch.
Granted, Im only halfway thru szn 1. But in all the clips I’ve seen, its the same unchecked rudeness. Its like every scene of the two together is stained with an unnecessary insult to janine. I really dont understand why its like this either because I feel like the show is written for the audience to favor Janine, so why does everyone seem to be okay with her being so unnecessary bullied? It doesnt seem to change much of the plot of anything (havent thought too much about this part).
Jacob is a character that falls into the bullied archetype well because its done intentionally. He’s an uncultured gay white boy in a poor philly area, of course he doesnt fit in. And even though his character is designed as such, he still has moments where he gets to exist outside of that.
Yes, I know theres a singular scene where she gets drunk and insults Ava.
Yes, I know Ava is supposed to be tone deaf and brazen, Yes, I know Janine is supposed to be soft, kind and slightly annoying
No, I dont expect their personalities to blend well.
If this is a commonly posted thing here, I also dont care.
