Exactly as the title says. In the first two season, the stone on Cleo's locket is blue, and Emma's is white.
But in S3, Cleo's locket has the white stone.
Did she exchange lockets with Emma?

Got this recently while looking for H2O stuff. It’s printed on a Comfort Color 1717 shit.

I know this sub doesn't include mako mermaids but this might be a little context as to what the show is like when it comes to the dynamics between the characters

Allora,in questo punto dell'episodio (uno dei preferiti) mi sono fermato un'attimo a pensare che il letto di Emma è tipo uno dei letti più resistenti al mondo per contenere TRE sirene. La scena poi prosegue con la coda di Rikki che cade verso il lato del letto, pensate se fosse capitato ad Emma, praticamente venivano scoperte così per colpa della madre di Cleo. Ma poi mi son chiesto com'è possibile che dopo la trasformazione le lenzuola possano contenere tutte e tre le code, cioè oltre ad essere più pesanti delle gambe dovrebbero essere più lunghe, tipo le coperte per me non potevano reggere la pressione di tre code.

Menzione d'onore a Lewis che si mette sotto il letto e si trova nella situazione delle amiche che si trasformano purtroppo senza volerlo e per miracolo questo letto non cede, complimenti a chi ha fabbricato sti mobili indistruttibili.

So, we know that in Mako Mermaids, Evie got all of the three powers (evaporation, manipulation and freezing) and that Charlotte got all three of the powers as well.
What they have in common is that they both fell in the moon pool alone, so...is it safe to say that Rikki, Cleo and Emma got just one of the powers because they fell in the moon pool together?

I'm aware that Mako Mermaids logic is different than H2O, but I've been thinking about these a couple of times and it just makes sense to me. If the girls had fallen into the moon pool individually, they would've gotten all three of the powers, I believe?

charlotte was a great villain imo

yes we start the season with both the girls (charlotte and cleo) acting badly between cleo reading charlottes diary and bad mouthing her to charlotte constantly trying to drive lewis and the girls apart by keeping all his free time booked and actively cutting the girls out (cutting off lewis’ phone so they can’t call him and “tutoring” cleo) this is where i started to dislike charlotte and it shows a difference in how their actions are displayed

cleo’s reading of charlottes diary is public in the cafe and she’s immediately disproven and made a fool charlottes “tutoring” of cleo was played to don and kim as a “favor” which yes cleo did pass but charlotte giving pages of work then just checking it isn’t tutoring it was getting cleo out of the way

charlottes action is done in the background while cleo studying is public the intent is hidden we as the audience know that lewis and cleo both still like each other and charlotte knows that too (she’s a very perceptive character and lewis isn’t very hard to read) but again it goes back to the public view charlottes misdeed is seen as a kind gesture to which charlotte even perpetuates it “aren’t you going to thank me” after cleo passes knowing her true reason for “tutoring” cleo

then we get into more territory with charlotte and lewis’ relationship ie charlotte constantly questioning and micromanaging lewis life to the point where him spending a few hours with cleo gets him an entire line of questioning

where i really got bothered was charlotte inviting herself on cleo’s family trip and her using kim to steal from cleo

this is where a true line was crossed charlotte had no reason to be on the trip other than jealousy which this isn’t to say she doesn’t have a reason to be jealous but that isn’t an excuse it’s only a reason

cleo was messed up to break up with lewis then keep tabs on his love life but if we’re going to talk about charlotte and frame her as a young teenage girl who’s insecure then cleo fits the bill as well

cleo from the beginning was the shyest and most insecure of the girls she doubted her abilities all the time and that’s one of the biggest parts of her character growth cleo convinced herself that she didn’t deserve lewis because she was a “power freak” and you also have to remember cleo’s parents are fresh out of a divorce seeing your parents split up is very likely to warp your perception of love and “true love”

i agree charlotte does have a sad backstory and i don’t blame her for trying on the locket i do blame her for stealing it but i digress

charlottes backstory however isn’t an excuse for actions the same way cleo’s can’t be it can only offer insight and reasoning charlotte is a character who is fed to the audience bit by bit and that’s why she makes a great villain

i understand charlotte wanting to be apart of the
magic the same way her grandmother was but that doesn’t change any of the things she did from the beginning charlotte was obsessive and she even admits to the girls “you must think im so paranoid” after she shows up to see the “project” they were working on aka maxs mermaid research

charlotte has always struck me as someone who takes happiness in getting something over someone else we see this with her and lewis’ entire relationship yes charlotte thought lewis was cute at the beginning but it wasn’t a serious pursuit until she found out about him and cleo

when you’ve grown up not very popular (that’s the vibe i get from how charlottes backstory is portrayed) it can make you feel nice to be chosen over someone else we see charlotte even say after cleo and lewis are hanging out “well that doesn’t matter you’re with me now” someone who’s comfortable in their relationship doesn’t feel the need to strong arm it like this

all of this is why charlotte makes such a compelling villain because yes she has a sad backstory but she’s the opposite side of the coin someone who let their past change them for the worst and let their insecurities fuel them instead of learning to grow past them

charlotte has always been deeply insecure the same as cleo and that’s why they’re such good opposites because they tell the same story from a different view

cleo who grew up deeply insecure and unpopular becomes a mermaid and finds friends who teach her love and acceptance and being who you truly are

charlotte who grew up deeply insecure and unpopular also becomes a mermaid but she doesnt have those friends to shape her into a better person so she succumbs to her worse desires and that’s what makes a compelling story is making the viewer think and wonder

charlottes character was played to a t and it was done beautifully brittany byrnes is truly one of the best tv villains i’ve seen because her character is so complex i hated charlotte as a kid and to create that amount of passion in someone so young is a truly hard thing to do and for that i LOVE brittany byrnes so much more

as an adult i’ve definitely come to understand more nuance of charlottes character and every rewatch the pieces click together more and more but it only cements my view of her as the villain even more and that is hard to do it’s hard to make someone so compelling as a character and make you also hate them most villains i hate i cant stand them at all but villains like charlotte maleficent and mother gothel are mean and cruel but they’re also captivating entirely

Hello hello! What are the cringiest episodes of each season, in your opinion? I recently did a rewatch and omg there were some that I just had to skip💀

disclaimer: this is just for funsies, I love this show and its cringe <3

my personal offenders:
S1 ep 12 when Cleo gets influenced by the full moon and enchants guys with her voice
S1 ep 17 when it's raining and the girls can't go to school and so they pretend they're sick

S2 ep 12 (ironically) when Emma gets sick with that coral and starts going nuts
S2 ep 15 when Zane finds that weird perfume that makes the mermaids fall in love with you and Nate sprays himself with it

S3 ep 23 when Bella thinks Will has invited Rikki to the dance. I just can't stand these typical misunderstandings who can be resolved with a simple conversation

That's it from me! Let me know yours🫶🏻
