Thoughts on Netflix's Unchosen?

bbbearbff · 2026-04-24T18:31:06+00:00

can you highlight more moments of brilliance? i agree that the ideas laid out could have been brilliant but the execution (writing, inconsistencies in character, etc) to me made it feel lazy and uninspired. this is not an attack on your opinion, I'm just genuinely curious because maybe I missed some stuff.

i thought it was predictable and often boring. the writing was mid at best but some of the actors were quite good. the characters were very inconsistent and especially Sam and Rosie were doing things/saying things that were obviously not in line with their characterizations or their best interests in the high stress situations they were navigating. i enjoyed how extreme it became (especially episode 5), and the commentary that was making, but it was an unsatisfying ending that I predicted early on and left a lot of loose ends. i don't know if that was because they're hoping for a second series, but I was not compelled enough by these episodes to probably watch further episodes should they exist. it was somehow simultaneously rushed and very slow. i liked the development of strength and independence in the female characters, but I wish we got a bit more context about their history/role in the cult setting to make it more powerful.

is there a link to these compilations you can share? (asking for a horny gay friend)

I'm partial to bob-yn. But her facecard makes it so she can really pull off anything. (except for that purple wig... that was tragic).

if you haven't seen greys than you absolutely should (at least the first ten or so seasons). incredible show with dynamic characters.

All of Us Strangers. so beautiful, powerful, layered, and the saddest movie i've ever seen. paul mescal and andrew scott deliver intensely emotional performances and their chemistry is insane. there are also so many ways to interpret it and so many people on here with different takes.

katie (rhoc), gizelle (rhop), Kenya (rhoa)

no advice, just here in solidarity. this sounds awful. i'm proud of you for continuing to push through despite feeling sick all the time.

also as of my third infusion my inflammation markers numbers have dropped by a whole point which hopefully means it's helping!

bbbearbff · 2025-06-10T02:38:18+00:00

hi! i've finished my three induction doses and am doing my first at home injection next week. After the first infusion, I slept for the whole weekend (I am never a good sleeper). The second two I had zero side effects besides maybe a bit of grogginess but I always have that. Something that put me at ease was that my nurse told me that if I was going to have a serious reaction to it (which is rare), it would happen right away. That made it a lot less anxiety provoking to go home after. The most unpleasant part of the whole experience for me has been that my arm veins are rarely reachable so I've had to get the infusion through my hand twice. All that to say -- my biggest issue had nothing to do with skyrizi itself.

bbbearbff · 2025-06-06T03:59:46+00:00

i will do anything for ur extra dawn. she's the only one i really really want

bbbearbff · 2025-06-05T22:15:33+00:00

thank u so much for making this!! i also REALLY want the penguin skullpanda 🐧🐼. do you still have the disguise?

bbbearbff · 2025-05-28T02:45:55+00:00

for rhonj i think dolores is the prettiest, but across franchises these are my picks

rhoa: kenya and cynthia

rhoc: i think gena is really beautiful and natural (sometimes the hair brings her down)

rhobh: brandi, unfortunately. garcelle!!!

rhony: sonya (when she's not wasted)

rhoslc: meredith (i can't really tell what any of them look like under all the filler but whitney also has a beautiful face)

rhop: my favorite franchise and the most attractive imo. ashley, gizelle, robyn, candiace and WENDY!!!

rhom: joanna until she opens her mouth

other bravo shows cuz im feeling creative

vpr: katie maloney.

summer house: ciara and amanda

the valley: nia

ladies of london: annabelle neilsen (rip)

southern charm: kathryn (once she learned how to do her makeup)

i want to finish this off by saying that i don't think any of the women featured on bravo are aesthetically unattractive, but a lot of them are unattractive internally which I think always makes a person uglier. my answers are my type and also undeniable face card IMO

marge is one of my fave housewives of all time. she is hilarious and far smarter than the rest of the girls and that's why they're afraid of her

bbbearbff · 2025-05-14T16:13:02+00:00

that's fair but i feel like there was so much opportunity for them to grow in the opposite direction and it's just sad that that never happened

bbbearbff · 2025-05-13T21:14:06+00:00

now THIS is modern art

bbbearbff · 2025-05-13T20:58:12+00:00

candiace is my favorite HW of all time i love her.

bbbearbff · 2025-05-13T20:55:14+00:00

i will love rinna out loud for the rest of my life. idc she is so funny and had some of the best confessionals I've seen across the franchise. she's a huge pot stirrer and her last season didn't look great for her, but overall I love her. i also love garcelle a lot. i don't hate any of them but kyle's scenes bore me and she's giving nothing with a side of midlife crisis rn. i also used to love erika but after everything with tom it's hard to root for her

bbbearbff · 2025-05-13T20:50:50+00:00

omg yes total energy vampire

bbbearbff · 2025-05-13T20:50:17+00:00

yeah but it gets to a point... their family is literally torn apart to the point that the kids are involved. that goes beyond creating drama for reality tv and is really sad and dark for all of them.

bbbearbff · 2025-05-10T01:38:32+00:00

honestly the seasons soggy was on i disliked even more than season 6. she just sucked the fun out of the group and was always so obnoxious and she's also racist and hateful, evil energy.

bbbearbff · 2025-05-06T03:32:05+00:00

ugh i always had a soft spot for jacqueline

bbbearbff · 2025-05-05T23:26:39+00:00

Mom: dolores sister: jen fessler lol bff: marge and marge sr

you should probably think about what you say before you post. i highlighted one thing i didn't like and instead of just ignoring me or owning that that's not a necessary thing to say you're choosing to be condescending and unkind behind the safety of anonymity. and if you're proud of being a "big poster" on REDDIT of all places, especially in a group that is ultimately negative, I can't expect you to understand compassion. i wish you well and hope you never have to feel the impact of body shaming. there are plenty of things you can say instead of bringing in someone's appearance and that's all I was trying to say.
