Friday night we talked to Charlie about how much we loved Season 16 and are looking forward to 17, and "We miss Mac being a fake bad-ass," was his example when he was talking to us about how he is really trying to prioritise getting back to who these characters really are, and digging into the weeds of them all.

It’s so special to hear directly from him that the character’s core wants, cares, and motivations are what he uses to drive every episode plot (and I am going to spiral about this forever, I think).

Isagi looks so cute in the bath scene!

I binged all six episodes of agggtm today and I would just like to say it should have been longer. Six episodes was not nearly enough to really capture the story itself. Due to this, it ended up having really bad pacing and not enough character development.

Also, is it just me or was Pip just not….detective-smart? I mean, she was brave and she had good ideas once in a while but book Pip was solving codes and finding clues that the average person could not. Show pip didn’t really solve anything. She just went around, asking a bunch of questions and happened to run into the clues.

I’m not sure if this is a hot take or not. But I can tell u that after their confession scene, I didn’t really enjoy Qtoey all that much. Every time they were on screen I was just internally screaming bc I was hoping for any Chain & pun scene. Christ there are 4 parts each episode and 4 main couples. There’s an easy division of screen time there. However it kinda feels like 2 parts PhumPeem, 1 part Qtoey and then 1 part either TanFang or the whole gang. I would have loved to see a lot more Tanfang & Chainpun if I’m being honest.

A kiss in the last 10 minutes of the fucking show is not a story.

TanFang have a whole narrative arc and the way that info gets revealed to us about them is so satisfying. Like when I recall past interactions I now do so with a whole new lense, I see depth and meaning in things that I simply brushed off.

PhumPeem are such a delight because of how emotionally well connected they are and I thought I would not like this ship all that much but it’s so precious and the story is so conceptually simple and yet so well written. Obviously there was a lot of beating around the bush but honestly? I was hooked.

Qtoey also had a great story of meeting in high school, and falling in love with each other through little notes before ever seeing each others faces, and the destined meeting once again as a senior and junior in College. However if I were to speak honestly, after getting Q and Toey together all of their scenes lagged. Also as a side note, they absolutely didn’t need that scene of Q and Toey doing the nasty. Especially since the og character for Toey is Ace. Hell! they could have done a really cool storyline of Toey and Q navigating this part of their relationship while being respectful of each others needs and boundaries.

ChainPun, got an off screen visit to the vet, a scene of them getting snacks, a scene of them releasing the bird and then suddenly a kiss. And before anyone says that Chainpun was a slow burn of childhood friends to lovers… babe no they’re not. A slow burn is slow I get that, but at least there’s SOMETHING to burn? I’ve been living off of crumbs here.

Finally, I don’t wanna come off as a hater, despite this post I do love this series. There’s a deep connection between all of the characters and it’s such a healthy depiction of so many different types of relationships between family, friends and lovers. The love of people who once hurt each other, those who have reconciled, those in the process of it, even the love of those who are so afraid of hurting each other they would rather hurt themselves.

when a drama says that it’s going to be a romcom, I expect a proper romcom like “business proposal” ok 😭

FX is airing this ad for Sunny 16 streaming on Hulu. It contains the unused gag of Frank being barefoot in Shoots and has what seems to be cut dialogue between Mac and Dennis following meeting Aaron and Bryan in Booze, something we hadn't seen before the season aired.

Why do they do this to me... the knowledge that Mac was suspicious about the Aaron/Bryan dynamic will haunt me.

they need to come up with code words for when they’re fucking cloned or body swapped or whatever like girl this has happened at least five times at this point
