You know what else is subtle but good in Gargoyles? The little Finella subplot in "Avalon."

Finella is totally set up to be Evil Blond Accomplice. She's in love with the villain, gets jealous when he starts making eyes at Catherine, blah blah blah, and he uses all that to convince her to lure the king into a trap. And then murder him.

But then instead of Evil Blond Jilted Lover vs Pure Innocent Heroine, Finella is just like "wtf you murdered the king??? Wtf is wrong with you???" And then she helps Princess Catherine escape and comes with her. So it's not like "Yeah, I'm gonna help you to get rid of my competition" is straight up "sorry about the jealousy bit and also screw that guy."

They trust her with the frickin Grimorum Arcanorum in the end! It's really solid female solidarity and I am here for it.

I am also super here for the additional solidarity of Tom's mom going off with her in the end with the logic of "a woman alone is vulnerable, but TWO women together know how to CAUSE TROUBLE." Yes, good.

But anyway yeah it's super great how neither Finella nor Gruoch is associatively villainized for being caught up in a love triangle involving the villain.

I kind of wanna see the Adventures of Finella and Mary now. I mean, not as much as I want the Adventures of Macbeth and Arthur, but that's a high bar. I wanna see em break stuff. They've earned it.
