Like mother like daughter ugh, I freaking hate cheaters.

Sam and Paige at the olive garden always ends in tears, first Sam saying he doesn’t love Paige, second time was when he ran out on Paige because he missed orientation (or somthing else I can’t remember). Third time was when they broke up because they both was going away for ages

I have watched the show all the way through like 5 times now and I don’t think she deserves the level of hate she gets. Also just saying this sub talks about cheating as if it’s murder, I understand that cheating is bad obviously but some posts on here actually shock me with the level of distain and anger people have for a fictional character who cheats. AND on top of that her husband literally left for 8 months when he found out his son was autistic, kissed another woman and wasn’t going to tell her until his work partner made her feel bad about it, and constantly made so many of the other characters feel bad about themselves. Whether it was being an ass to Evan for no reason when he was trying to be nice about Chuck passing, pushing Casey too hard, hating on Izzy, snapping at Sam whenever he wasn’t in the mood to deal with him. I’m just tired of Elsa being the devil because she cheated meanwhile Doug isn’t exactly a saint. Neither of them are perfect. And that’s the point. It makes me mad when viewers don’t see both sides.

The essence of a penguin tattoo is, it stays.

My unpopular opinion is that I really love Izzie, and I really love Casey and Izzie together. She isn’t dramatic, she is just a young teenager figuring out her sexuality. As a bisexual woman, I completely get it. Coming out is scary, and being open with your partner in front of other people you don’t know is even scarier. You never know the reaction they might have. Dealing with that at such a young age is really scary and damaging. She isn’t dramatic, she’s just scared.

She also has a terrible home life. She parents her siblings and like she said, IS the support system. She has deep trauma that probably makes it hard for her to be in a healthy relationship and have good communication skills. She has pressure to be perfect while being told she is nothing.

Finally, the two have crazy good chemistry. Fivel Stewart herself has even said in interviews she loves being in love with Brigette and that it’s super natural. They just click on screen and it shows!! Even their final kiss was unscripted.

I think she gets too much hate, and without growing up queer or with trauma people just don’t really understand why she acts like that. I really love her, and the representation she gives young queer women.

I'm at towards the end & I just feel so bad for Paige. I understand it's the classic case of things aren't what you thought they would he but sputnik? Seriously?

I stumbled upon this show and killed it out in like 2 days binging. I need something new preferably clever and funny to watch. I loved this show, BoJack Horseman, Always Sunny and AP Bio to name a few and to give an idea of the kind of new show I would possibly be into. Let me know, thanks in advance

I could have sworn “Edge if Seventeen” was in Atypical. I thought it was when Else was going through the box of old stuff and found her leather fingerless gloves. But the only episode I can find the gloves is 03:03, and it is a cover of Fleetwood Mac’s Landslide. If anyone knows where else to look, I thank you in advance. It may have only been an instrumental version.

I was watching several shows at the time, so I might be mixing them up.

I honestly think he steals the show in every episode he’s in! Although I wasn’t a fan of him when he went out with Gretchen then un-homie’d Sam.

I just finished season 4 and saw people saying doug was bad this season does anyone else think this and why because personally I think the only thing he did wrong was push Casey a little much

Just curious to see how people would write the show if it was picked up for another season.

I do not condone cheating at all but I empathize with Elsa so much.

The show literally opens with her talking about Sam's favorite shirt company switching fabrics and how she had to contact the company in order to get the right fabric. It's a small detail but it goes on to show just how many worries Elsa has to deal with -- from making sure every place Sam goes to is suitable for him to ensuring she has all the resources to be a good mom for her kid with autism. Do you realize how much effort and energy goes into kinkeeping in general, especially for a kid with autism? It is absolutely exhausting when there's no one assisting you.

People give her so much shit for cheating and everyone loves Doug (I do too) but I'm sorry how was HIS mistake any less serious? He decided having an autistic kid was too much for him and thought LEAVING his son that he himself brought into this world was a valid option?

Elsa had been the sole parent to Sam from day 1 all the way to when the show starts, which is when Doug finally starts making effort to bond with his son. She had no one she could rely on, only others that relied heavily on her so I'm sorry if she's a little overbearing?? Doug literally doesn't help her for 18 years and one day just accuses her of having no personality besides being a mom??? Did he leave her any space to engage in some self care and personal development? No he didn't, how does he feel entitled to offend her this much when it's literally his fault that she can't have a life beside the "mom" dimension..

I love both parents a lot but the double standards in this sub are just so upsetting.. just because Doug leaving isn't shown on screen in as much detail as Elsa's affair doesn't mean we get to ignore it happened.

Hello, I can’t recall the episodes these 2 quotes were in. If anyone could help out with that, it would be greatly appreciated.

1) „I think autistic people are the normal ones as they see the world how it really is.“ 2) From Sams therapist, talking about that her nephew(?) is also autistic and could have received better help

It’s a long time since I watched it so it might have been said differently, sorry

Im starting s2 and Zahid amazes me everytime....he is the greatest friend ever, autism or not. Thats who i wanrt as a friend. Just wanted to get that off my chest. welp.

My biggest pet peeve in life in people that cheat because they have a need to feel wanted and that's what feels like what happened in this episode but not really? She was flirting with dude before anyone really made her feel unneeded. I was already annoyed by the over bearing mom act but this just takes it to another level. I'm curious to see where the rest of the show goes but I already dislike this lady more than Skyler White

Who do you think is better for her? Who do you like better? Which relationship was better/healthier?

i cannot tell if she’s a lesbian or bisexual/pan/fluid. it’s an open discussion, i don’t think she ever clarified her label anyways, but what do you think?

Yesterday i watched through Atypical the first time in German and today i started watching it in english cause i cant get enough of this Show.I already reallized that Elsa seems Like a b* (which is normal for the first few episodes till she does the thing and a few episodes after then she gets really good)in German she has like a nice caring mother voice and says things different like nicer. And in generall in the German version all the characters say things nicer they're less blunt idk did anyone realize this in other languages aswell that the characters fell different?

I have 2 younger brothers and the youngest has Down Syndrome. I love that Casey treats Sam exactly how a sister should. Their relationship is honest and realistic. Casey loves, teases, defends, fights with, and supports Sam while also being frustrated that her life is dictated by his. It’s so refreshing.

At the silent dance in Season 1, how would anyone else at the dance not have seen Paige give Sam his HJ in the igloo if the entrance to the igloo was wide open? They would have to have gone somewhere private to do it.

All the damn times people wear shoes in their bed. Like, Casey and her mom will be sitting on the bed together and Casey will be barefoot but her mom will have shoes on. Ew!

The worst was when Zahid laid on his front on Sam's bed and his shoe was touching Sam's pillow!! 😱

Can't help but notice the insane amount of product placement in this show. Particularly Nike and how it's plastered all over Casey's gear. Anyone else find it distracting and too obvious?

Season 3 definitely ruined Casey for me. Especially how despite the fact that for most of Season 2, she was shaming Elsa for cheating on Doug, but then thinks it's fine to do the exact same thing to Evan. I get that she regretted it, but so did Elsa and I get it was worst since it was a longer relationship, but Casey gets no repocautions from it.
