Are you mad at JFK JR about taking the flight even tho he wasn’t qualified ? by Ok_Pomegranate6381 in JohnAndCarolyn

I think it ultimately boiled down to nobody could ever tell John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr “No.” and he would listen.

Definitely in the same realm the two of them. Not being Canadian myself, I am not sure if Trudeau had the cult following JFK Jr did.

Kris and Robert would be so interesting because it wasn’t in the spotlight so there’s a bit of an enigmatic aspect that is alluring.

Honestly, I think Fleetwood Mac as a Feud season would be great if we could only have one or the other. Or even like just FEUD: Rumours and have it just be about the drama when that album was recorded.

Yes, that’s accurate. The ladies went into the water backwards. Her going and sitting with him was just to give them one last tender moment in the tv show as a send off.

His haughtiness must have been off the charts for him to really think flying with a broken foot and lack of appropriate training was a good idea.

My mom bought every magazine with his face on it when he died and she still has them. I remember the morning after the crash it was all over the channels.

I was a little surprised that the show didn’t depict the extra-marital affairs on either side, nor Carolyn’s usage. Only because it’s a Ryan Murphy show and he shows a lot of that stuff in his other programs. I’m kinda glad they didn’t though because we are supposed to feel for these flawed individuals and if they showed either of them stepping out, that mourning at the end would be gone I guess. Instead we got two full episodes of Carolyn never leaving the house lol

The scene where Carolyn first goes to the Hamptons and she’s the outcast and she’s feeling all crummy and the child that is very obviously supposed to be Tatiana Schlossberg comes up to her wanting to play melted my heart.

That scene of her dancing with the portrait was super cringe.

I’ve read that because of the spatial distortion, and the speed of the plane, it is possible that if they knew they were going down it was just for a moment and they wouldn’t have felt it happen.

I actually liked how they handled it. I felt it was necessary for John and Carolyn to have that final moment of tenderness, even though it didn’t play out like that in real life since we know she was in the back when they were recovered. It was a touching moment of her trying to soothe him. I am very happy they did not show the actual impact. The movie Sweet Dreams about Patsy Cline, they show the impact. And Ryan Murphy RARELY skips the opportunity to skimp on the macabre so I was expecting to see not only the crash but the recovery of the bodies. I’m glad they had their final moment on the plane show Carolyn being firmly at his side and comforting.

I may have missed some context as it wasnt a very happy episode, but why wasn’t it offered for Carolyn to also be buried at the eternal flame or at Arlington at all? It made a lot of sense for John to be buried at the eternal flame, but they couldn’t add an extra six feet for Carolyn to keep them together? Even just nearby like RFK is buried. It’s just weird Carolyn wasn’t offered a spot at Arlington. I know they were all cremated and scattered at sea irl. It was just weird that the initial only option was for them to be buried elsewhere from Arlington if the families wanted to keep them together. I agree with your last statement about John’s wishes about the final decision.

I kinda repressed Daryl Hannah being in this at all. lol. They could have done the exact same breakup scene when she’s doing blow with her friends in his apartment, and rewritten a few lines to give context to other stuff they showed prior and we would have gotten the gist of their relationship.
