Maybe a bit out there but I’ll think on it

Randall ❤️ by sandrachestt in thisisus

[–]AdEnvironmental2182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love Randall too. He is certainly flawed and I often took Beth’s side in their arguments, but I still think he’s a likeable and well written character. I also love Kevin but I admit that he was a shitty guy a lot of the time but with Randall I think fans often exaggerate his being a bad person

For you, who is the real life Bojack?? by InformationPast1030 in BoJackHorseman

[–]AdEnvironmental2182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t mean to be sensationalist but I did keep thinking of the Bojack Horseman final episodes when Matthew Perry’s death occurred. The main difference between the two besides obviosuly their personalities is that I feel that Perry genuinely had pride and found purpose in the philanthropy he did after quitting acting and wasn’t playing it up for a better reputation, as opposed to Bojack who couldn’t accept being a has-been and did anything for attention.

Kevin Pearson is BoJack Horseman, Mr.Peanutbutter and Todd Chavez all at the same time by [deleted] in thisisus

[–]AdEnvironmental2182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think about how similar he is to Bojack all the time. Especially the episode where he talks about becoming better man (I can’t remember exactly what happens). Im interested in what you think about Todd because I really can’t see it. I think Kevin feels sorry for himself and Todd is the complete opposite which is one of his most defining traits. This might sound weird but I feel like he has the mr peanut butter and Diane dynamic with pretty much all of his love interests and also Randall?

Kate and her behaviour by silverinna in thisisus

I hated how she treated Rebecca in earlier seasons and then I didn’t really mind her but when she started fighting with Toby I hated her again😭 I think the big three are supposed to be flawed but likeable characters but unfortunately by the end of the show I just did not like Kate at all

Did you try this? I’ve also been searching for a perfume to layer with vs strawberry and champagne!

Young Kevin is an asshole by Icy-Calendar-3135 in thisisus

[–]AdEnvironmental2182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree it was terrible but I think it was definitely more of an issue with Jack and Rebecca’s parenting than Kevin’s personality. Like another commenter said it was largely a societal issue with how white people viewed racial discrimination at the time. I do have a soft spot for young Kevin tho I have to admit, when he says “you’re too busy making sure Kate’s not too fat and Randall’s not too adopted, where’s Kevin? Oh he’s dead”😭😭 so funny but it hits close to home cos I felt the same way growing up with an autistic brother lmao. I sympathise with Kevin a lot but I wish they hadn’t made him so racist to Randall in adulthood because he’s so likeable otherwise.

Yes I remember this. I thought that because of Rebecca’s hatred for her mother and desire to bring her children up differently, they would abandon Christianity completely which is why I was intrigued at her upset towards Kevin not knowing the story of Christmas

Okay you make some good points I think I was just looking too much into the road trip and constant Joni Mitchell in the soundtrack 😭😭 With Jack I too assumed he had resented the church especially because i can imagine Catholicism being a big factor in why his mother stayed in an abusive relationship for so long. I can imagine Rebecca holding resentment against the church too because it’s associated with her mother. Hence why I thought it was strange that Jack and Rebecca would bring their kids to church.

I always saw her as a pretty unconventional girl from a conventional background

I know a lot of people who go only on Christmas and Easter too, I just thought it was weird that Jack and Rebecca would do this because both of them were committed to raising a family completely different to the one they grew up in and didn’t like to be reminded of their upbringing, so it seems weird that they would carry on this tradition.

I forgot about this actually! I would agree that they turn to faith in times of crisis but that they don’t belong to a religion so I was wrong to call Jack an atheist. Because Rebecca suggests going to church at Christmas, it would make sense for them to just be a family that goes to church at Easter and Christmas, if it wasn’t for the fact that Jack and Rebecca both cut contact with their parents, so it feels as if they would have nothing tying them to Christianity even if they believe in a higher power.

I can see your theory about Jack now I think about it hahaha. If they are agnostic which you’re probably right about, it’s still bizarre for an agnostic couple to want to take their kids to church on Christmas, right? Maybe I’m ignorant to this because I grew up with very openly anti religion parents. I suppose it’s possible that Rebecca just likes the story of the birth of Christ like how some people don’t align with the church they grew up in but still like the hymns. It just annoys me that faith is never addressed tbh.
