@CNHarder @ask_aubry I mean, honestly, of course.

@Magicknegro I also felt like that was obviously what they were going for but agree there wasn’t enough there to make it feel meaningful. Evelyn didn’t even seem to like Skeet personally!

[Lauren Chval @lchval]

@Magicknegro I LOVE that for you and I wish I could love it too. You don’t write about a show week after week hoping to hate it. I wish it was more coherent, but I’d never begrudge someone for enjoying it. Thanks for reading!

Allison Janney was a complete monster in this episode and it was pretty glorious. #PalmRoyale

@saloni_g @nicolemichele5 I keep saying Jere is who you should date at 17 and Conrad is who you marry after he gets therapy.

THE SUMMER I TURNED PRETTY (S2) (73% #CherryScore) is "so good that it makes the (already very strong) first season feel like a preamble we had to watch to get to what the show was meant to be." - @lchval, @theavclub

I reviewed season 2 of #TheSummerITurnedPretty for @TheAVClub and completely adored it. A love triangle that actually feels angsty. Space for both joy and grief. A soundtrack that goes all out. It’s a knockout. https://t.co/fxY7MHFDZQ

Carrie — a famous, successful sex columnist — says in this episode she’s never thought about jizz. #AndJustLikeThat
