This is gonna be a long journey but stay with me.
I need more shows like supernatural, hannibal, the devil judge, our flag means death, the end of the f***ing world, and I assume killing eve (I haven't watched it yet but its over so I can binge it so I'll start it soon). Shows that have big relationships that focus on Character A and Character B.
Shows that have their main character travel down a pipeline that goes from…
No one in the world gets me or understands me
*No one in the world gets them or understands them*
No one in the world gets us or understands us :)
It doesn't always end in smiles, but there is always a point where the main character recognizes that they are no longer alone because they all have a deep connection with their villain or the person that you thought might be the main antagonist in the series.
Character A is like emotionally aware, empathetic, and their emotions are like forces of nature to the people around them and they think no one understands them. They are viewed as kinda fragile and easily influenced by the people around them and they are familiar with being used either by the people that love them, or some greater system that they’re a part of. It is a point constantly stated that the person is just soft and breakable because their heart is too big. And they can’t help but think “I am alone. No one understands me.”
Then they meet Character B, that (sometimes the more overtly queer coded of the two) mainiac that changes everything and destroys everything that they touch in the best way possible. They bring so much baggage because they are such a special character and they never ever think they could be important to someone in the ways that matter because, just like with Character A, they have been told something is fundamentally wrong with them. So they gather their courage to damn the system and the consequences and pride themselves on doing things the wrong way.
The characters are both better off for knowing each other because Character B starts showing great acts of grace, mercy, and beauty because that's what they've learned from A. And Character A starts bending rather than breaking and going on physical, emotional, and psychological rampages but you're never sure if it's for B or for the greater good of everyone trapped within the system.
