Dude, It's Camp, It's Great. Just Like I Don't Expect The Vampire Diaries To Be Revolutionary, I Keep

Dude, it's camp, it's great. Just like I don't expect The Vampire Diaries to be revolutionary, i keep the same standard for First Kill. Maybe it isn't some cinematic masterpiece, but that doesn't mean it isn't good. I personally think it's a phenomenal show. The queer rep, poc queer rep, is more like an add on benefit. I too would love to see improvement in the future, i always will. But I do expect it to camp, and I do expect it to be phenomenal.

Sure, we should expect quality shows that are cinematic masterpieces and are gay, but a vampire show is not where that's gonna happen, and you're kidding yourself if you think it will be.

Checking all these posts about first kill, and it's making me kinda frustrated.

The bar is low. It's as simple as that. A show should not be renewed because it has a black main character, or because the main relationship is queer. Yes it needs to be good.

I've seen a post or comment here some weeks ago that said, that it doesn't matter it's good or not...and that is sad...everyone is so focused on having representation and a LGBT show and everyone is losing focus...

We should demand quality content! A writer and producer and whatever team should not get praised because they decided to make a show that's diverse in race and sexuality, and then lack in quality of content and acting.

They should work better on quality and a cancel should be the right motivation to work harder on that.

I've seen the show, and as much as the premise is good, the acting in general is cringy and one dimensional at best. I had to pause on the episode where Tess (?) finds her parents dead because of her reaction. Who does that? How is that a show worth going to its second season? And don't come at me with receipts of good acting...even a bad show has it's moments...

I'm sorry some people allowed themselves to be passionate about it....and I'm frustratingly so ready for some quality lesbian show with a good diverse representation, but we can't praise lazy writing and direction. Otherwise they'll just keep feeding us bullshit over and over again. And we will always accept it. No one on their right minds sees acting like , for example in Killing Eve, and can defend this show. There's no way...

Even a 'feel good' show , lighter and teenage oriented can be good. And this isn't it. Honestly the two main girls are being wasted on this show... they're too good for it.

And in the case of the show get renewed, i hope the team behind it sees this struggle as a motivator to do better. I wanna see a season 2 with more quality and feeling.

Dude, It's Camp, It's Great. Just Like I Don't Expect The Vampire Diaries To Be Revolutionary, I Keep
