gabrielarivoiro Simply wonderful, a insightfull take on feminist revolution, fatfobia, bodychaming, objetification of women, the dissasfaction industry, and the role of media on making women feel bad about their bodies, their age, and so on... Beautifully played by Joy Nash, dark humored and,intelligent.
stephwagg I really enjoyed a show that has enough bravery not only to go beyond chick flick, but to actually challenge both patriarchy and feminism. It's both counter culture and counter extremism in my eyes.Is it about loving yourself regardless of what others and culture say? Is it about rejecting those who love you and are concerned for your health? Is it about a world where abuses are casual and daily? Is it ok to commit murder to fight back and then how far do you go in your rebellion- even if you start to become the oppressers?I love the fact I don't have answers. Love the plot and the characters. It certainly challenges how we are all influenced by culture and those around us.
sharajj I love this show. You can never get settled into any expectation of what might happen. Whatever you think is a logical "next step" for the main character is probably wrong. The plot doesn't develop in a particularly linear fashion. Some people are commenting that it is jagged to watch, but I think that's the beauty of it. We are so conditioned for scripted shows to follow a logical path, and this one challenges us to get outside the box. What does it mean to be fat? What does it mean to be healthy? What does gender equality look like? Do you need to conform to be heard? Are you depriving yourself? How do you find balance? How do you prioritize things in your life? Even questions about self-worth, self-fulfilling prophecies... most excellent. Looking forward to more.
nikkigassner "Back then, I didn't want to be the hero, I still wanted to be the hero's girlfriend." Watch it. Hell yes it's over the top, but it's amazing.
