just watched his & hers on netflix as i am a sucker for a crime drama as always.
it did not go where i expected it to at alllllll but omg. that ending.
i found anna a little annoying so it was hard to vibe with her but her 16th birthday party was SO DEPRESSING. i felt so sad for her. and the fact that catherine just fucking ran after anna jumped in to save her? the other three girls suck, obviously, but that was so evil of catherine.
rachel is a complete psycho though. selling anna and catherine to these men is psychotic.
we were theorising while watching and pmore boy said what if it's the mom murdering them but that didn't make any sense at that time because she had no motive. but it turned out to be her after all!!! honestly good for her.
the only one i felt a little sad for was zoe. she was not a great mother by any means but now her kid is going to grow up without her, and jack's lost his sister. granted, he didn't know what an awful thing she'd been a part of, but it's still devastating to lose her.
everything is messy asf though. fully expected jack and anna to end up back together raising meg, but was a happy little surprise that she was pregnant. but the fact they were separated because she basically ghosted him and he was shagging one of her former friends in secret, which she then found out about, and now they're just together again starting their family anew... MESSYYYYYYY. and of course now anna knows her mom murdered zoe and she doesn't have dementia at all and i guess she's just never going to tell jack this lol.
and you know what? fine! let them be messy together. jack was insane to work that case and not come clean about his involvement with rachel from the start, and using his own niece's dna was fucked up. and screwing rachel at all was fucked up, especially if he was hoping for reconciliation with anna this whole time!
so, yeah, whatever, they deserve each other. and thanks to mama alice, the world is a better place without those evil weirdos. one of them was the head mistress of a SCHOOL. how disgusting.
all in all, a decent limited series. not my favourite but an entertaining watch over two days.
