“Really had fun for a minute but I struggled with the hosts’ privilege and their lack of perspective for characters that don’t match their own upbringing. There are great jokes involved but maybe the hosts don’t have the capacity for talking about some lower income circumstances. Their perspectives of storylines are often really interesting as long as those storylines are not about families or circumstances outside of a middle class norm. In my experience, they hit a lot of great points from their own perspective but not enough points from the queer or poor or addiction adjacent perspectives that I think are readily available and relevant to the show. I expected Dawson’s creek to let me down a bit but I didn’t expect it from y’all.”
