Oh, how I will miss this show. Sometimes writers get it right and this series was no exception. I wish there were more shows that really looked at life like this one did. Yes, I missed Allison and Cole this last season but I felt their storylines were handled well..... and life doesn't always give us happy endings. It also allowed for more time to focus on Noah and Helen which I appreciated because they really delved deep and made "the affair" in and of itself an event that took place in the past. What I loved about this show, especially this last season, was its ability to showcase true human nature. It was like a study on human beings.... the mistakes we make (and why), the vulnerability and also strength within all of us, the lessons we learn (or don't), etc. I also enjoyed seeing, especially in the first few seasons, how differently two people can recall a certain memory/event. I was never sure whose "perception" to believe, but I knew the truth would most likely lie somewhere in the middle:) This was a great show and I'll never forget it.

Sierra Burgess Is a Loser
(2018)
Cute film
11 September 2018
Warning: Spoilers
I wish all the millennials out there would stop focusing on the whole "catfishing" aspect of this film and appreciate it for what it is - another modern retelling of Cyrano De Bergerac. There have been many, from Roxanne to The Truth About Cats and Dogs, to this. The Sierra character is getting so much backlash, but that is only because the younger generation is so consumed by social media, online dating, texting, etc..... so the "catfish" part is the only aspect that people are focusing on. Her character was insecure. She made a mistake, but it won her the guy in the end. The moral of the story (whether people think the original theme has aged well or not) is brains triumphing over beauty. That is all. I thought it was cute - and I LOVE her song and singing voice
