The comments on Sam's age frustrate me so much. He is not even old! And even if he were, why do we shame people for that? Nobody stays in their teens/20s forever. And it's not a bad thing. Look at Eric, Jennifer Ehle, and William Fichtner. They are all older, and they all still have plenty of sex appeal and talent. And from a show point of view, I feel like people generally visibly age less between their 30s and 40s than they do between their 20s and 30s, so having actors start in their 30s can actually help with the believability in the long run. Most importantly, Sam, Jacob, and the other actors have all worked their asses off and given incredible performances, so who gives a shit if they are older than their book counterparts?

I think that people who claim that no one liked Snow White don't realize that, if that were true, the Walt Disney studio as we know it would not exist, and it might not even exist at all. Walt made it his first full length animated feature because he loved the story. He took a huge gamble, and it paid off because many other people loved it. Of course, 87 years later, we look at it through a different lens than they did then. That is inevitable. But an empire was built on this movie. Snow White's apple is as important a piece of iconography as Cinderella's slipper. And, in my opinion, none of the versions of Snow White that have been done since have come close to the 1937 version.

I saw your post about Nancy being Buffy coded, and it caused me to way over think it. lol. I'm inclined to agree with you, because I always feel like it's a straight line from final girl to slayer. What made me overthink it though, is that Buffy was actually inspired by the blonde girls who always get killed early in horror movies, so, with that in mind, the most Buffy-coded character would actually be Chrissy. Anyways, I've just decided that all of the Stranger Things girls are slayers. But Nancy is the head slayer, which would make her Buffy.

Adding to that last anon, one of my favorite things about Enid and Wednesday is that I see them as being on more or less equal footing. Like, it would have been easy for the writers to write Enid as a pushover, or as a mean girl, like Amanda from Addams Family Values. But they didn't. Enid stands up for herself and tries to be understanding of Wednesday's quirks. It like Enid said. They shouldn't work, but they do.

For the ask request: AMC Armand seems to have some resentment towards Daniel, yet, according to Armand, he saved Daniel's life back in the 70s. Do you have any headcanons about exactly what went down between them? What do you think of the theory that one of both of Daniel's wives didn't actually exist, and his memories of Alice may actually be what happened with Armand?

I haven't seen episode 7 yet, but I noticed you said Rowan is revealed to be pregnant. I actually considered that she could be days ago, because she and Cip were in that house for I don't know how long, probably with no condoms. But, did they reveal if he was the father? Did Lasher pull some supernatural pregnancy thing (ew)? Could it be from her hookup in the first episode?

Regarding the question of if Jamie knows that Dani visits her: this is not canon by any means, but Amelia Eve, who plays Jamie says that she believes Jamie does not know, because Dani knows that Jamie would take over the lady of the lake duties from her if she could, and Dani doesn't want that, so she doesn't let Jamie know she is there. Again, this is by no means official, but Amelia said this in a buzzfeed article, and I thought it was interesting.
