luna. God. These writers let me down so much. Like all of season 2 was fkn AMAZING and then they just throw all character development out the window at the finale like what the FUCK I’m so mad. Also rio kidnapping her is so ooc I’m so mad. Who the fuck thought this was a good idea???
Aww honey, I know. I really felt, in a lot of ways, betrayed by how it all went down. The kidnapping was a huge thing that I just didn’t understand and really didn’t like, I wasn’t a fan of the psycho music being played while Rio spoke, and then obviously Rio on the floor slowly dying.
I mean, I guess we should be glad that Beth didn’t deliberately shoot Rio...? Like, it was self defense. But still! The finale felt rushed and cramped, like they were trying to neatly tie up as many loose ends as possible in case the show got cancelled -- I feel like this explains why Beth seemed okay with what happened, and the line, “He’s gone. We’re free.” Cause that shit was waaaaay out of character and totally out of left field. But it was a nice bow if the show didn’t go on.
It is totally reasonable to feel let down and angry and frustrated. I myself am feeling disenchanted with the show as a whole, and I am curious to see if the panel next weekend clears anything up and mends any bridges.
