I had unfairly filed this away in my memory as the worst series, which is technically true, but only in so far as the other ones were phenomenal and this one was only very good. It’s a shame that this did not continue Hazel’s story and only gave us a glimpse of Amelia’s. I hope the series can be revived eventually.

Setting aside that disappointment, I really like Min-Gi and Ryan and how unapologetically Canadian it is. Refreshing to watch something not assuming a perspective of the United States. I also learnt that they use the word runners (for trainers/sneakers) in Canada too from this season. I thought it was just an Irish thing.

When I watched this show originally I thought that that third series was not as good as the first two. I certainly didn’t resonate with it as much as I did with the second series as an angry trans woman early in my transition. But this one really hits home a lot more with me too now, and not just the funeral scene making me sob while I am still grieving and so, so tired. The grooming, the two-facedness, the people willingly ignoring everything in front of them and revelling in making themselves worse. It’s a little sickening to watch in a great way. It is such a shame that we didn’t get a series focusing on Hazel afterwards.

This series gets me genuinely anxious watching Lake’s struggling to be seen as a person, as someone separate from Tulip, as not some broken version of her past. It’s trans as hell.

I love how angry and selfish Tulip is, how she is so focused on figuring out the train’s character development-based points system but can’t because the way she has tried to close herself off from feeling things because it’s too painful and would never want to consider that confronting her feelings is the whole point.
