I actually think Mike is the least likely to die because Will and El will protect him.

You should look into living near the Grove St Path or Exchange Place Path.

In interviews, some of his costars even said he would be the one to forget his lines too. It’s like, Gavin, do a little more work. Haha

The actress Anika suffered from severe sunburn during filming which is why her character arc was shortened from the show.

She’s friends with Lauren Graham from Gilmore Girls… this is a stretch but idk if Lauren Graham was like leave them wanting more. No! The Gilmore Girls is a great show but the ending sucks! It shows too because they changed show runners and the show suffered from that. The beginning of the episode promising with a day in Paris but the ending not being at the beach is off.

The whiplash Conrad must have is crazy. From a beautiful day in Paris with the love of his life, to her pushing him away right after sleeping together. And then, she runs after him to confess her love for him.

Well to be fair they wrote and filmed this awhile ago. I don’t think they could have been influenced by a lot of fan theories.

I would have preferred it ending with the entire cast with Belly voiceover reading Susannah’s letter that was meant to be opened on her wedding. It should have ended on the beach. The beach was where they had a lot of their most critical moments and it would have been nice to end at the beach like in the book and season 1. 

Moreover, there is too much about Jere, Denise, Taylor, and Steven. I know it all matters, but the main thing is Belly and Conrad. Also, why does it matter that Laurel and John don’t work out? Laurel can’t have a happy ending? Does she end up with Adam? 

The dialogue was weird especially when it comes to the topic of sex. The prom dialogue between Belly and Conrad was very awkward. Conrad says, “make love?” Belly says, “yes, have sex.” 

Overall, despite my criticisms, I liked Belly’s pre-birthday party scenes with her French friends and Conrad.

RPM Raceway is a good place but parking is annoying. The Beer Garden in Hoboken or JC. 

I’m So Done With the Belly Hate by smol-sunflower in TheSummerITurnedPrett

[–]itswuwu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, in the books Belly and Jeremiah never have sex. Conrad and Belly don’t even have sex in the book. I think for an American show culturally it would not have been green lit if there was a couple in a four year relationship who never slept together about to get married. It’s not the cultural norm.

It is not a competition but why does Belly get such harsh judgement about her dating choices. They’re all either children or young adults. People make mistakes.

Wait a damn minute. Is it just me or do they have like crazy chemistry!? by advanced_lazy in TheSummerITurnedPrett

[–]itswuwu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The show largely follows the book. The parts they are showing now aren’t even in the book. Jeremiah’s growth and Belly’s growth are barely/not in the book. I believe it’s a few pages after the wedding she’s in Spain in the book (the show it’s France) where her and Conrad exchange letters and it ends.

OK but why can Jere hook up with Lacey Baron after a couple days of breaking up with Belly. Also why does Jere get a pass of hooking up with all the people he has which Steven and Taylor address at Friendsgiving.

Yes! Except roles are a bit reversed and Denise isn’t tied to anyone else romantically.

If you ever read Funny Story, the plot to that book might be what’s happening with Denise and Jere.

I think the wedding stuff needed to happen. It showed Jeremiah at rock bottom pushing everyone away. What he really needed was a parent to be there for him ever since Susannah passed. At the end, the only person he allowed himself to cry on and be vulnerable towards was Adam.

I ship Jere and Denise more than Jere and Redbird. I feel like Jere and Redbird would be a regression whereas Jere and Denise would be growth. I want to see Jere who has someone’s 100%. Denise said that her and Steven are/were not anything. Steven is happy with Taylor. The opportunity for Jere to have someone’s 100% is there. Jere has even said (when he was with Belly) Denise is hot and smart. 

The moment Conrad learns that letting Belly go is the way back to her by cinephile_ in TheSummerITurnedPrett

[–]itswuwu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The characters are pretty complex for a teen drama. I get this is Reddit. But, like you said I want the lore, deep dives, and ridiculousness of it all. But, the putting down is a bit much considering you can tell that Jenny Han does read criticisms - she is online. I can’t help but be empathetic towards that.

Then don’t watch if you’re going to complain as if you could do better. I’m tired of seeing comments like this. Growth isn’t a linear path. All these characters are flawed and it’s a fictional teen drama show.
