#the sex lives of college girls s2

So Bela goes to Eric for advice on running her comedy magazine and then they become friends with benefits…

I’m pretty sure I read that fanfic last year.

Whoever wrote ‘Comedy Mentor/Mentee’ is either an oracle or an actual writer on the show

Eric + Bela + This Season On TSLOCG

Well, I still think you should tell him. Honesty is the best policy, even if it's hard. I don't think so. I think I'm gonna take this one to the grave. Or my one-woman show, which ever one comes first.

the sex lives of college girls

[ratsdontmurder]

seemingly i’m on my own in this thought but i really enjoyed both this season and this season finale.

I’m actually quite interested in Bela’s arc and where it’s going to go in the future. To me it like makes complete sense that someone who is clearly very talented suddenly comes into too much power and responsibility and doesn’t know how to deal with it and deal with other people. Bela is lame and has not been good at interacting with people and it’s catching up with her. I’m looking forward to seeing her repent in s3 and the future of the show. We’ve also not seen the end of Eric or Eric and Bela as a couple, he’s BJ Novak. although i’d love to see a different love interest for Bela.

I’ve hated every guy that Whitney has been with apart from Canaan. I’m so excited to see the love triangle of Canaan, Whitney and Kimberly. I’m happy to see Whitney explore her own intelligence, i think it’ll be interesting to see her try and balance very difficult class that takes a lot of time and football when football season starts again. (side not there have been like 4 small jokes about a queer whitney in the show so im hoping queer whitney future but yk)

I would love to see more of Kimberly’s union work, that i felt really spoke true to her character. Jackson grew on me over time. I’m looking forward to seeing jackson try and win kimberly back. Personally i still see more chemistry between canaan and whitney then canaan and kimberly. As well as the fact that they work together and neither of them can afford to not be working together.

This really was Leighton’s season for me. The slut era was hilarious and very realistic for her character. Leighton and Tatum to me was clearly not going to last and she was great for what she provided narratively for the show. Tantum really represented what leighton wanted to be as a queer person and who she was before she got involved with the women’s center. I really love Alicia so I’m happy about her return as well.

S1 Bela fucking around was cute but S2 Bela??? nah I thought we were over Bela sleeping her way to the top c'mon now.

The Sex Lives of College Girls season 2 recently ended and damn.....what the hell is going on????

Why was Whitney screwing the dickheads from Chemistry class? Why did she and Canaan break up??? What was the point of Jackson? Is Kimberly still in debt? So Tatum is just getting tossed to to side?

There was so much that happened but it also felt like nothing happened which is really disappointing

Also, Kimberly's shenanigans with Canaan are unacceptable to me. Like what the hell bro? How could you do this to your friendm and I like Alicia but I don't see how that's gonna last (also Tatum deserved better)

Weirdly enough, I actually don't have any problems with Bela's actions this season. They made sense to me (even if I didn't support them)

Anyway, the point is......New YouTube video just dropped! Lol we talk about everything we have questions about in season of HBO's hit show!!

Please watch below and let us know what you think, is Mindy doing everything right, or is it time to pivot?

Sex Lives of College Girls S2 Finale Thoughts

Just watched the finale of Sex Lives of College Girls. I'm glad we're getting a season 3 because the ending???

But I'm glad Bela is recognizing how badly she was acting. I was about to go find Mindy and literally be like "what on earth is happening to Bela's character in the House of Commons (writers room) right now?"

Also sooooo awkward with the drama they set up between Whitney and Kimberly!!!! I better see a talk between Jackson and Kimberly because Jackson imo at most deserves proper clarity.

And Whitney and Andrew should have actually just talked with each other? Like, not once did Whitney ever consider thinking about having a talk to find out why Andrew maybe was acting like that?

To end on a good note, LEIGHTON WAS EVERYTHING. She absolutely carried. Leighton really impressed me and I am so happy with the direction her character went in. The only thing I hope I don't have to see too much of is the discourse about Tatum and Alicia. I will admit it, I was one of the viewers rooting for Alicia and Leighton. I am of the opinion that you should be able to ship who you want, and if you liked Tatum and Leighton, you should be able to enjoy that too.

But please, let's not hate any of the actresses. And us wlws/sapphics have lost so much as it is already. Like I saw someone once say, we can be sad but we don't have to villainize any particular person.

I really love this show, but it's a shame when things I want to happen/root so badly for never actually get addressed. I'm all for some sprinkles of drama in a show every once in a while, but it does make some things hard. Lol. Just the life of a fandom consumer these days I guess. Hopefully plot/dynamics/arcs can be fleshed out more and we can get longer episodes- or more than 10 eps in one season.

And now we wait for S3 to hopefully give us that.

I liked s2 of sex lives of college girls, but that being said if I was in that writers room every single thing that happened this season would’ve happened differently.

[becky5203]

Episode 3 is called ‘The Short King’ by the way. Do whatever you want with that information.

[100hearteyes]

Okay, now I'm not accidentally watching 1x01 instead of 2x01. Let's go, live watch reaction of Season 2 of The Sexy Lives of College Girls:

EPISODE 1

Kim's parents continue to be funny weird lol

Wow that's a lot of skin, Bela. And the poor lesbian of the group is having trouble focusing 😂

Oh I was no longer used to the sitcom way of filming this series employs in their dorm

Bela is the funniest 😂❤️

Oh Bela 😂

Bela is right to be indignant, clementines are the better fruit of the orange trio

That guy was so ripped even Leighton was shocked 😆

The gay pride balloons 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Kimberly looks the right mix of funny and adorable

Ohhhh Whitney has some stuff to figure out

Ohhhhh that's the girl from Critical Role!

As a lesbian, "put your clothes off" is very relatable

The comedy dude is actually cool. Remember when he was framed as the turd so we would trust the Nice Guy who then turned out to be a sex offender? That was a good twist and a realistic portrayal of how tricky the Nice Guy logo can be

Poor Whitney 🫢

Whitney and Canaan are such a cute couple

Bela isso funny 😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Oh, Leighton 😔

Daaaaamn Kimberly well done

Oof. Wrong move, Canaan

Oh fuck 😆

IS SHE GONNA COME OUT?

SHE IIISSSS

Everyone's reactions were so wonderful 🥹❤️

Get itttt Bela 🤘

[not-so-rosyyy]

Mindy from The Mindy Project. Devi from Never Have I Ever. Bela from The Sex Lives of College Girls.

they all have one thing in common and that is the fact that they're objectively the most annoying character of their shows. so now i'm convinced that Mindy Kaling just really hates herself because the way she sabotages her brown leads who are clearly just diff versions of her? whew, just...lots to unpack there.

TSLOCG SPOILERS

tatum acting bitchy to leighton isn’t her because she was literally supportive of her, kimberly and whitney beefing, bela transferring, kimberly broke up with jackson for canaan, alicia is back together with leighton unfortunately. everything was just so rushed and i still can’t process it😭

[angieschiffahoi]

listen enemies to lovers is my jam.

enemies to lovers set up CORRECTLY is totally my jam

biochem guy was not just assuming whitney was not good at science because she’s a girl, but because she was disturbing class with a shallow conversation so his mistake was assuming her to be a type of person because of something she did

…and whitney is kinda shallow, I mean she did not care for him at all until he took his shirt of and she saw his biceps

but he starts to think of her as an interesting individual when she corrects him and proves she’s smart too (making him shallow as well)

their rivalry was naturally built on surface judging which is common in teenagers and attraction seeped in when they looked beyond that

none of them is perfect but it’s not like he’s a misogyinist asshole and they grow fond of each other because now she’s smart (which is 100% of enemy to lovers dynamics in stuff that isn’t fantasy)

good job, tslocg! good job!

just finished the sex lives of college girls season 2 and i’m really disappointed?? it was a really enjoyable season with really funny moments throughout, but it was so messy and clunky that it’s just so frustrating to look back on. 

anyway spoiler warning for everything below the cut

bela was a great character, but she got sexually assaulted last season, then became really sexual this season, which makes a lot of sense, only to not even mention anything of it at all, and then somehow didn't even address how much of a dick eric was but instead was made to take all of the blame? like yes she did some horrible things too but why did eric become a saint despite his sexist comments and the fact he tried to take over her connection with the comedy guy? bela has so much potential but was written as just this really messy character whose job is to let others look better and to make funny jokes. 

 whitney is another character i love but her storyline was so random? from the misogynoir which was brushed off after one episode to getting with the clearly misogynistic guy who only saw her as worthy of his attention when she proved her intelligence, to then wanting to get back with canaan despite not even having much to go off of... it was just very messy. 

leighton was better written than the other two, but the last two episodes were definitely her downfall. she claimed to be friends with all of the people at the women's centre yet we never saw her with them until we needed to make tatum look out of touch... she did show growth (in relation to her views on politics and the people at the centre) but it doesn't really count if we avoid all of that until the last two episodes. and then to suddenly make tatum into an asshole without even exploring anything else, meanwhile every male counterpart gets to have chance after chance before being kicked off screen (if that). it's just very odd to me idk 

that being said kimberly is probably my favourite of the group. her story was very well written and i really loved her. she's so much fun and her growth was the funnest to watch, and i’m really excited to see what her and canaan do.

overall, with some clunky editing, overuse of ADR, and the inconsistency this season was a lot worse than season one. it was really fun, and the episodes were never really *bad* but it just had so many overall issues that it's hard to rate it all above 3.5. this show could really do with more episodes, because everything was so rushed and some of the endings felt like those netflix mini series that really should be movies and just throw in random plot twists at the end to keep us watching. so much happened yet almost none of it was done well. a very fun but also very disappointing season.
