His mom lied to him to protect him, she told him that she hid letters from his dad for years that his dad never sent just to make Tyler feel better and that hurt him.

Tyler had only 3 people he kind of trusted after the apocalypse. There's something about it that is oddly compelling - even for someone like me, who watched it twice even though I really kind of hated at least half the episodes! At the very least I hope that the actors who played Jeevan, Frank and young Kirsten get tons more work - they absolutely knocked it out of the park. I 100% understand why people are obsessed with this show, though. When major plot points would take place that involved these characters, I just wasn't emotionally invested enough in any of them to really care. I never really bought into it, or even fully understood his motivations, or the motivations of those who were allied or against him, or of those who were first one and then the other for some inexplicable reason.Ī secondary problem was the Travelling Symphony, which was chock-full of too many barely-written, one-note characters. My main issue, I think, was the Tyler storyline. I even rewatched the entire season after ep 9 to see if I'd like it more on a second go, and no, it just didn't fully click. And yet I didn't love the show as a whole.

I absolutely teared up during episodes 9 and 10.
LAST EPISODE OF STATION 11 SERIES
I loved that the series tackled trauma in new and interesting ways.
LAST EPISODE OF STATION 11 TV
The Jeevan/Kirsten/Frank storyline was heart-wrenching and delightful - possibly the most emotionally invested I've been in a TV relationship in years. Certain episodes I absolutely adored (particularly 1, 3 and 9). It's not that he wasn't right about it not being her fault and all, and it was warranted that he'd get into that to a degree, but he was also quick to let her off the hook - everyone did, and on that end of things, it felt a tad unrealistic that no one would have a strong reaction about her actions even if she did do them when she, too, was suffering a crisis.Station Eleven, for me, was a perplexing experience. There's a direct line between someone's death and my cruelty, and I mean, what.Īnd while Beckett would've had these issues regardless of Maya giving him that booze, I'm glad she was willing to sit in her accountability even when Ben was trying to cheer her up and taking it easy on her. There's a direct line between someone's death and my cruelty, and I mean, what kind of person does something like that? The entire time, going to the store, finding a bottle, presenting it to him, the look on his face? I felt like I had won. It's truly a mark of growth that she shared with the others, and it shows that she's sympathetic and in tune with her emotions that she was guilt-ridden about how her actions could've led to Beckett's fall.Īs someone who was livid when that scene happened, I'm immensely pleased that Maya took ownership of her actions, describing her headspace when she did it, and showed genuine remorse. And by the time she left that building, it sounded as though she arranged for more than one opinion on the issue because she knew that the original person would be too biased, caught up on some "Good old Boys" shtick, willing to overlook whatever Sean did.Īnd one of her most notable moments was her honesty about giving Beckett that alcohol. We saw bits of that with how she spoke to the man investigating Beckett. She's very calculated and shrewd, and there's a certain magic to how she can bend situations and people to her will without them realizing it, which makes her a fascinating character to watch in some cases. Ross is well aware that she's not the poster child for those in her position, and she's learned to navigate many situations and people. Ross had her own way of doing things, and thankfully, the series has taken a great approach to showcase how she works angles in this job.

His behavior actively endangers their lives and that of the public, and they've gotten to a point where they cannot trust in his abilities, nor can they function properly.
