Love, Victor Season 2 / 3

[EthanE]

Here’s a “feel good”, admittedly escapist storyline: an entire season when Victor spends months  backpacking, picking up work as necessary, and enjoying hookups and sad goodbyes.    Don’t young people aspire to carefree time  like that anymore?  A sex-positive show, please!

may be, but my money is on rahim...

i think they will make victor choose rahim. they need to tell a fresh story, a gay kid from a muslim family and how he faces his community.

if they go back to victor & benji, what story can they tell? fight, make up, fight again? sex issues? and the show is so positive, i don't think they will go down the path of gays being attacked or something that dark.

I also think this is the path they will choose. Possibly working towards a Benji-Victor reunion at the end of season 3

Am I the only one who cried during several episodes and gasped when I thought Victor or Benji might sleep with someone else during their fight?

I really, really love that the show lets relationships be messy and not preordained, but man, Benji and Victor in that photo Rahim took...

[Tiuri]

Am I the only one who cried during several episodes

Yes

[Heinrich]

...Oh.

I watched the first season and George Sear is the best part there were no pianos involved sadly but jokes aside I think George could be the next big thing in Hollywood. So watchout. George has done a lot of growing up since his Friday Download days.

season 3, the last season, is finally coming June 15...

from the preview, it seems that he has chosen Benji...

[Heinrich]

Just finished it and burst into tears. I'm gonna miss this show so much.

[EthanE]

finished it.

well, i think it has recovered quite a bit from season 2 but still not as good as season 1.

they could have spent more time on the benji-victor relationship but then they have so many plots they have to close that the "Victor" in "Love, Victor" was lost. and when closing those plot lines, things feels rushed and i ended up not caring any of them.

still love the show...but wish it could be a better ending to a show that started strong...

[Tiuri]

Done.

While I agree that this season was not as great as season 1, I can certainly live with this ending. It's sad it's ended but it was a great show.

I confess I had to really push myself to finish season 3. I really got to the stage where I couldn't care less with regards to who went off with who. For me, the huge problem is that it went from being a coming out story to a soap opera. The amount of storylines going on was insane, and we are meant to think that the events of all three series took place within 52 weeks. In the end, no-one's story actually got finished in a satisfactory way. And there was a tendency for these "teenagers" to open their mouths and say things that no teenager is likely to say. It was like Dawson's Creek all over again. Victor went from chasing Benji to having possibly four guys to choose from. The only characters that really came out of that final season with any real sense of being realistic were Felix and Pilar. And Anthony Turpel's depiction of Felix has been the highlight of the entire show, for me. His character and the writing around Felix's relationship with his mother and her mental health problems was very well done.
