2023-02-23 01:39:15 +0000 UTCwell i liked the fact that our main lead was kinda a villain in my eyes.. even the final scene... she will NEVER change and we never got to know why she was even like that. the way she treated everyone was awful... and i hated everyone lol but this show to me, is just a loop. real or not. i felt the other one had a better STORY i guess :) π

2023-02-22 21:45:06 +0000 UTCIt was SO difficult for me to get through Conversations with Friends. None of the characters were likeable; the female lead in particular was aggravating, while the male lead was so boring. Connell and Marianne's relationship suffers from poor communication, but one still roots for them completely. The script was really well done, to the point where I always tell others that the show is one of the rare instances in which a screen adaptation is actually better than the book (which was wonderful in its own right). Three years later and people are still talking about it, meanwhile Conversations came out last year and quickly faded into obscurity (where it belongs), but different strokes for different folks I guess.

2023-02-22 16:37:30 +0000 UTCThe class divide is a huge factor in their relationship, they bonded despite Lorraine being Marianne's cleaner, and she was the one who also encouraged him to apply to Trinity. When Marianne and her mum were bonding over uni days, Alan (who gets along with Connells working class mates) went off in a strop. The bossy guy has the nerve to ask if Connell is smart despite C developing a reputation for being top of the year at the best uni in Ireland, he doesn't appear to be intellectual cause he doesn't sit around drinking wine in chinos and philosophising instead he's working two jobs and returning to his cramped accommodation.

2023-02-22 16:30:09 +0000 UTCi can see that but when you have a story with such well acting and good chemistry between the characters it makes it amazing and its just realistic to real relationships, communication is such a issue in most relationships or even friendships - it just feels so real and genuine

2023-02-22 16:19:51 +0000 UTCsomething i noticed is a lot of other characters throughout the series will tell Connell and Marianne how they become "weird" or "awkward" around each other or when with each other and I think it shows how when someone finds that person they can talk to about absolutely anything with no judgement they're their 100% true self without any act or trying to be "cool" so even though their relationship or conversations can seem awkward i think its meant to represent how comfortable they are with each other and their deep bond

2023-02-22 16:18:53 +0000 UTCi love the scene where they talk about what happened in high school and connell apologizes π₯²

2023-02-22 13:27:03 +0000 UTCi don't know.. to me this relationship is just going so much in circles, in every episode i personally feel - it's a variation of the same loop. which took me out of it. i liked "conversations with friends" a lot more.
