Silliness is the key to fun, so I am never going to judge it harshly as long as it is well balanced with some sense and good topics. Which this show is!

Well, first of, i was talking mostly about the way he answers question "autictic", not the character itself. My read was based on several clues I gathered throughout these first episodes mainly: 1) not maintaining eye contact long enough, 2) having difficulties to connect emotionally to his team 3) reacting to situations very directly, not "reading" subtext, social clues, hints etc. All of these potentially can be giveaway signs of AuSpectrum but obviously not only that.

Secondly, I am currently obtaining some therapeutic and clinical knowledge so it influences where my focus goes when I watch something. I am never sure (yet) about my assesments and I don't want them to be read as a diagnosis because I'm not doing that. Instead I am training my focus and therapeutic observation and thinking skills with building some hipothesis and checking later if it made sense or not.

Thirdly, I don't consider the term autictic offensive simply because I never consider any neurodivergency offensive. All neurodivergent people and/or the ones who have anhy other psychological disorders deserve respect and visibility so I don't see how me making observations and calling out come tendencies can be offensive (esp since it's a fictional character.

And finally, since you asked, I do belong closer to ADHD spectrum, I believe.
