@haikyutwo I think you've unintentionally highlighted a huge plot hole: if Gates needed Wednesday's blood, how could she have come up with the plan before knowing Wednesday would be coming to the Nevermore?
@zombiedd_ Yes, but if you think about it, all the elements you described are important only in the second part of season 2, while finding out who the murderous Hyde was was the central mystery of season 1 since the first episode.
@addamsfillm Unpopular opinion: The biggest waste was killing Laurel Gates midway through s2. As a villain, she was much more interesting than Hyde, who is a variation on the Incredible Hulk. However, the choice may have been made for reasons beyond the control of the series.
@theshipdiaries3@Hellooo2937@esinclaires Then, good heavens, I'm as awake as a bear in December, but the writers aren't exactly doing a good job of making us understand what's going on in her head. And we even have the voiceover...
@theshipdiaries3@Hellooo2937@esinclaires Yes, I know your reliable sources. You know what the problem is? Wednesday is written in such a way that the public can interpret it as they please.
@theshipdiaries3@Hellooo2937@esinclaires Yes, Hyde is important, but he doesn't obsess Wednesday any more than he obsesses over other elements. I'm not saying he's not important, I'm saying he's not the driving force of Season 2.
The Doctor Who quality dropoff happening to coincide with the first female and black mainline leads is GENUINELY the worst thing ever.
Both in terms of legacy and giving people who subscribe to stupid, convenient and lazy anti-woke lines of thinking a semblance of validity.
