Skam Austin

A couple that is made of two poc wlw

Shay would help teach Meg it's okay to love girls (and stop her alcoholism)

Meg would be there to support Shay as they fall in love even as her family is breaking down

Smoothie dates

Meg would go to every concert to see Shay sing

Shay would write Meg songs or poems to remind her she's worthy of love and is an amazing individual

They'd both learn how to handle their sexuality together

Smoothie. Dates.

Meg actually has the voice of an angel and she sings lullabies to Shay when she's sad or upset over her parents

Their relationship brings the girl and "boy" squad together on good terms

But Skam Austin gave us our first two Hispanic mains AND a muslim living in the deep south.

Both are important rep unseen from any other remake (I can count until i die the hoards of white characters) and it only makes sense for it to be in the American remake. Another reason Sana's season is vital to each remake IS because of how little rep and understanding surrounds her and her religion, and we've already seen remakes screw hers up.

Skam Austin went out of their way to make Jo Hispanic and show off her culture many times in the show. She could have easily been a white southern belle for all anyones betting. Megan is obviously hispanic, but her family doesnt function like Jo's. It really shows the dynamics and differences that exist within not just Texas, but the entire US. Everyone's expresses their backgrounds differently, but can coexists beautifully.

Then theres Zoya, who is probably one of the most mysterious and unknown Sana's. Her life in the deep south must be a challenge we haven't gotten to witness in its fullest yet, but she shows extreme bravery and strength when we do get glimpses. Her struggle in America would not be equivalent with Sanas in Norway or France or Italy. Which makes Skam Austin an even more necessary remake, and I hope it makes it to her season.
