Kissing is not an 18+ issue at all
The writers just wanted us to ball our eyes out for the 10000th time 😭
It was for sure intentional
The whole story is about coming to terms with your past and coming to terms with having to move on, even if it hurts.
It drives that point home massively when David disappears again. The heavy reality that life kinda sucks sometimes, but you gotta keep moving.
Hard truth…
I can speak freely because I’m 65 years old and my pocketful of fucks is seriously depleted.
Working as a paralegal at various studios in LA for thirty years…I had the opportunity to observe studio executives closely.
They’re generally a slippery and clueless bunch who shouldn’t be allowed near anything remotely creative…but the new regime at Paramount is straight up evil.
I assure you.
These soulless bastards have nothing but contempt for a show about grace and redemption and the struggle against fascism.
ATLA is a mystery to them.
They. Do. Not. Value. The. Franchise.
