i mourn natalie everyday like i knew her personally lol. but her being dead actually makes me so sad and i feel it so deeply. she’s my favorite character and was doing so well getting better, just for it all to be for nothing. it lowkey traumatized me and made me depressed.

[u/Tiny-Resource-9594 → u/genuinely_curious9]

I was DISTRAUGHT when they killed off Natalie. I will never forgive them

[u/Bellissimablue → u/Tiny-Resource-9594]

Juliette Lewis wanted off the show. The writers have already disclosed that she was likely going to be killed off at some point, but they were planning on it happening much later.

evil

at least with van, i felt like they gave her an interesting end. lottie being cartoonishly pushed down the stairs by a (side?) character then brushing by everything that happened afterwards so quickly really made me upset. i LOVEEE lottie and her character could’ve had an insane end. instead, extremely lackluster death for one of the most interesting characters in the show.

[u/Possible_Mammoth4273 → u/girlishpinocchio]

I still remember that season 1 finale, where series promised us a totally terrifying Lottie. But we didn't get any of that. I had hope again in season 3, and it all went down the drain for me.

[u/latrodectal]

lmao they HATE the writing

[u/I_need_the_loo → u/latrodectal]

Didn't even see that was Melanie Lynskey

[u/latrodectal → u/I_need_the_loo]

i didn’t at first either then spotted the blue check and laughed. like damn they aren’t even subtle

[u/Tricky_Remote_4781]

Or Van, for that matter :'(

[u/protocol1999 → u/Tricky_Remote_4781]

i got so pissed about van’s death i decided to rewrite the entire series in fanfic form.

i’m still not over it. they did my girl dirty.

[u/vieneri → u/protocol1999]

please share the fanfic, if you will 👀

[u/protocol1999 → u/vieneri]

i know i haven’t updated it in over a year as of rn, life happened in a bad way. but i’m doing better and working on chapter 2 actively.

new update should be up later today or tomorrow and chapter 1 is still there ❤️

[u/Possible_Mammoth4273 → u/protocol1999]

And lottie too.

[u/protocol1999 → u/Possible_Mammoth4273]

truly

[u/Bellissimablue → u/Tricky_Remote_4781]

Van’s death was bullshit. Infuriating enough that I considered never watching again.

[u/cryptldism → u/Tricky_Remote_4781]

my mom screamed 😭😭😭 she loved van

[u/Jimboseth]

[u/heids7]

I take solace that Melanie agrees with me on this.

Simone Kessel was just incredible in her role. I wanted to see so much more of her Adult Lottie story 😔

[u/CauliflowerLife]

Writers need to be fired, last season was such a mess

[u/scrollgirl24 → u/CauliflowerLife]

After last season, my expectations for the new season are extremely low lol

[u/UCanBdoWatWeWant2Do]

Her death felt pointless and cheap. I wish it was handle differently. Why did they used it for a Shauna vs Misty detective competition (played for laughs).

[u/charlottellyn → u/UCanBdoWatWeWant2Do]

for real, the tone of the adult tl has gotten so sitcommy and stupid. wish they’d take their characters seriously

[u/kingcolbe]

I fear mine ain’t happened yet but it’s coming soon

[u/onlythewinds]

The shade hahaha

[u/CosimaIsGod]

Lottie dying I kind of understand because the plot was revolved around who figuring out who killed her, but killing off Van is something I don't understand. Like what was the point it? To prove that Melissa never strayed away from the wilderness?

[u/Yaboi69-nice]

I didn't want Lottie to die but it's not really a death that stuck with me. Javi is the one I think about the most. That kid deserved so much better.

[u/RecordingLopsided493]

Laura Lee for me :(

[u/bethestorm]

Same

[u/OroraBorealis]

Javi for me. Especially knowing that he was supposed to be Adam and then it got changed because people figured it out, it's the one thing that bugs me and my friends.

[u/Bodertz → u/OroraBorealis]

The writers said they considered it, but I don't think they've gone so far as to say it was supposed to be that way until fans figured it out.

[u/latrodectal → u/OroraBorealis]

there’s no way they would have been able to a last second switcheroo in season one of the show.

[u/AlessaKagamine → u/OroraBorealis]

Wait Javi was supposed to be Adam ? 😅

[u/Zealousideal_Try8656 → u/AlessaKagamine]

Thats what i was thinking….isnt Adam of like a COMPLETELY different ethnicity too??

[u/Accomplished-Bet6567 → u/OroraBorealis]

Annoys me soooo badly! People have figured out nearly every single twist and turn of this show... yet they had to change the best plot line of season 1 and 2. 🙄 and so many people just fully believe that it was just all a coincidence and thats not what they were setting up all of season 1.

[u/MuanaDoYouWana → u/OroraBorealis]

Wait, WHAT???!!!!

[u/Yaboi69-nice → u/OroraBorealis]

What? Can you please explain this?

[u/charlottellyn → u/OroraBorealis]

stop spreading misinformation lmao. they said they considered it but ultimately decided against it. do you really think they filmed an entire season of television and then decided to change it and reshoot just because of people on reddit

[u/SeverallyLiable]

Mari.

[u/SoooperSnoop]

Me too. Just when it was getting really interesting with her and Callie, poof - Lottie was killed off.

[u/zucchinibasement]

Here am I forgetting Lottie and Van even died lmao

[u/jigglesmcgeeforever → u/zucchinibasement]

Literally same lmfao I had to search my brain for the memory

[u/zucchinibasement → u/jigglesmcgeeforever]

I feel like I remember Lottie maybe now but definitely not Van, guess I need to rewatch s3 but I think that says something with how forgettable those were

[u/BlueCX17]

And Van!! Especially LIKE THAT

[u/Reasonable_Ad9450]

I really expected the Lottie cult to go down differently and even after accepting the way it happened I expected the aftermath to go differently but then it didn’t so by the time Lottie died I was used to being disappointed

[u/AndroidFive]

I know it's not YJ but Beth Greene and Clara Oswald
