NCUTI GATWA! (that is all)

Rules:

1. Don't be a dick. Specifically (but not limited to):


1. Not liking something is fine, and negative comments are fine. Please do not directly tell other participants why the thing they like is bad or that they are bad for liking it.


2. Kink shaming will be deleted.


3. Racism, homophobia, transphobia, antisemitism, misogyny, etc will be deleted.


2. Discussing material from the books is fine, but if you're going to discuss something that happens in future episodes, or the fate of historical characters, please put it under a cut and title the comment Book spoilers! or something similar.


3. Likewise, wanting to treat the show as a self-contained unit and not engage with the books/history is perfectly valid.

How to do an in-comment spoiler cut:

I always say the penultimate episode is the best time to introduce a bunch of new characters and plots!

I liked the Red Tails, and felt like we got a better intro to at least Alex than we have to most of the mains in the rest of the series. Idk much about the other two. I do feel like... a) apparently white airmen expressed no racist attitudes whatsoever at anytime b) I don't understand why we've sprouted a Red Tails plot in episode 8/9.

Same with Sandra. Happy to watch five seasons and a movie of Bel Powell's spy adventures, but why the hell are they included on this show? The filming of her scenes were great though!

All the Buck Squared things in the camp were good, though I would've liked more about how Egan came around to being productive.

Don't really care about Croz anymore, and not nearly enough Rosie this episode.
