I feel like y'all will get a whole lot more out of the show once you stop contextualizing every frame of every gay scene as an invitation to buttrape. Yet again y'all brothas get stuck on 30 seconds of 2 niggas cohabitating and missed the larger context of the episode portraying how grand and proliferate Black people could be, SHOULD be, were it not for outside factors causing us to reduce ourselves into something more "acceptable". That's a specific message I can honestly say I've never heard directed towards Black folks. I believe that's why in this episode they had Hippolyta engage and interact with figures who went beyond their conventional places in society to achieve noteworthiness.

Every week it's ENTIRELY WAY TOO FUCKING MANY hot takes about some agenda to make niggas gay over the airwaves while the many messages of empowerment through intelligence and education are barely acknowledged if at all. The characters are flawed but unfathomably brilliant people. The story only progresses through the discernment, deductive reasoning and sheer ingenuity of it's Black characters. When before have we had anything like this?

He has every right to say from that.

Something doesn't have to be complete to make sense.

If you are watching a mystery that lasts an entire season you dont need the reveal of the mystery in the 1st episode.

But if shit don't make sense it don't make sense.

Y'all niggas think confusing shit just to be confusing is deep.

This show is all over the place with NO HOPE of real resolution. It is extremely poor story telling.


How can you say something incomplete doesn't make sense?

You haven't finished the season lol

I did. I don't have to continue to watch to have an opinion though.


The episodes in themselves are trying to hard to be deep and are silly.
These writers are hacks and are given shows they cannot run.
You idiots watch anything that streams and looks shiny and thinks it is a masterpiece!
Loving riddles and shock and awe for no reason instead of good dialogue and story telling.

She got to dance on stage with her favorite performer, kill some white men, and show her husband her dreams and passions.

its inconsistent...
the attention to detail, production and screenplay of this ep doesnt measure up to the previous eps....

imo - Hippolyta story should have gotten the same love and care as previous eps

i hear you and like I told Bills

I APPRECIATE THE EFFORT though

the inconsistency I think is because some of the stuff is just too much to cram in one hour

and they want to cram in so much exposition plus Easter eggs plus homages plus story progression plus backstory

They gotta just take a breath and your RIGHT

Hippolyta ep and the 1st episode should be the blue print going forward

but the thing is

the acting is so TOP NOTCH

and I can see EVERYONE involved CARES SO MUCH

and its the FIRST season

I'm giving them a pass.

Sidebar...

I realize Watchmen just came in and housed sh*t

but remember who the show-runner was and that cast and the budget and property.

unfortunately
inconsistency is a sign of future decline in quality
(Sons of Anarchy, Dexter, Sopranos, GoT etc)

ok yes DAMN IT of course your right

to be fair EVERY one of the shows you named?

went 3 seasons plus ratings hits and had CLASSIC arcs episodes and seasons and won awards and were genre defining in some way

cuz, I think we would ALL be happy with THAT outcome.
