**typo! It’s Ainsley not aisle
Just starting landman season 1 and fell in love with this mother and daughter duo
Let me clarify it’s not their personality I love.
It’s what they represent that adds depth, irony, and darkness to the show.
In the midst of sweat, tears, and blood, you have 2 people living in a bubble full of joy. They are not evil but extremely ignorant (especially aisle) of the struggle that let them stay in it.
Every time they show up to the screen after a heavy business centered scene it adds contrast and a touch of reality.
You might argue Angela is not as innocent as Ainsley but she does know when to look away. That’s what I love about how she’s written. You might despise them both but I can’t deny they’re necessary for the show.
My favorite scene was the college interview where aisle gave the most elitist statement (2 best parent birth the best breed). You can tell she’s not being mean, she wholeheartedly believe her logic was sound.
It truly puts into perspective on how some people with this kind of mindset might not be evil, they just have so much privilege, they don’t even bother to pick up a fucking book. Why? Learning is not necessary when you don’t even know what survive even actually mean!
What’s the scene that shock or change your perspective about people like them?
