I have such frustrated feelings about Why Women Kill.
I adored season 1 so much, it was brilliant! The writing was solid, there was a tension to the mystery, parts of it that only unraveled with time.
And this show was actually unique. The way it told three murder mysteries in three different time periods that all shared the same location was incredibly cool. As someone who loves the look of a period piece from the last century, it was so nice to see the costumes, the cars, the sets. The way the show transitioned between time periods too!
That’s not even mentioning the cast, the cast was fucking amazing, I mean, you don’t cast Lucy Liu and don’t get praise for that, that’s a given, but Ginnifer Goodwin and Kirby Howell-Baptiste were also amazing.
An incredibly talented cast that got to work with a solid script in a refreshing concept of story-telling.
And then they just… threw everything unique about the show out of the window in season 2 and made it the most average, mediocre thin, just another run-of-the-mill crime show. Sure, it was still a period piece, but only one period.
The concept of switching between periods, which was the unique and interesting aspect, was gone - and I can only assume that was some stupid greed decision of “oh well, if we keep doing 3 decades a season, we’ll burn through the past century way too fast so let’s slow down!” or something. But I’d rather have had three incredible seasons that had wrapped it on 90 years total and kept the model of story-telling that the show first used, than what the show ended up doing.
Not to mention that there was just… no real… Season 2 lacked appeal. The stories of the three murderesses had intrigue, for one, it wasn’t even entirely clear who would end up the murderer and who would be the victim, and then there was compassion woven in too. They were complex. Season 2 just fell incredibly flat and was so much more predictable.
It was also such a drag. Because it had one story that it told over the span of the same length as season 1, which told three stories. So they stretched this out to trice the length it should have needed.
All of this is to say, I wasn’t surprised when this show got cancelled after season 2, because of course did it get cancelled after season 2. In a sea of shows that get cancelled too early, this one actually did that to itself by self-sabotaging so hard.
And yeah, I’m still mad about that, because I just rewatched Sandman and saw Kirby and was reminded of Why Women Kill season 1 and how great this show could have been if it had kept the anthology format of telling multiple stories within one season, if it had managed to keep even just half the quality of season 1.
This is so dramatic of me but I hate hate hate the swear jar headcanon for Jason. Like holy shit sit down for two seconds and think of the implications of taking away money from a child that lived below the line of poverty for all their life and was homeless for three years if they do something you don't like. Are you insane
I want less aroace representation that’s like ‘uwu I don’t even know what kissing is bc I’m so innocent and pure’ and way more ‘yeah I grew up in a brothel and it isn’t for me but I LOVE AND SUPPORT my sex worker sisters and so WILL be teaching all the concubines how to do the nastiest, wildest sex to funnel money to my childhood brothel and also to advance my sociopolitical interests’. Or maybe I just need more Maomao period. All the Maomao.
“ships should at least make sense.” no. ships can make sense, sure. but they’re just fictional characters we play with for fun. they’re fantasies, not a fucking thesis paper. so no, they don’t always have to make sense. they just have to make you happy (or horny).
let people enjoy (fictional) things however they want to enjoy.
snow really convinced himself lucy gray didn't love him (after she wrote a whole song about him and tried to run away with him) and then forty years later told sixteen year old haymitch abernathy that dying in the arena would be dodging a bullet compared to loving a covey girl. top 10 situationships gone horribly wrong
An important PSA to remember!
