Just watched Black Lightning Season Two premiere and everytime I think this show couldn’t get more real it’s “wow they did that.”

This show is a gift honestly.

And it makes me want to write so much Lynn meta. I’m just enthralled with what they are doing with her character. It’s like they are taking every … ugh I can’t think of the words but you know how they often portray partners of superhero as “unsupportive” or “weak”. Well it’s like they take that and turn it on it’s head.

It’s like watching a masterclass in someone taking a trope I dislike and turning it into something wonderfully complex and with proper reasons and nuances and just …

I did not realise how much I had missed this show until the new season started. It’s just so intelligent and the core of it being family is so good. I suppose they weren’t very subtle with the theme of consequences but then there is a lot to deal with – and they are actually dealing with it!

It’s not “next plot point please” it’s “let’s resolve the mess we already got”.
