I do wanna bounce off that to make a other comment about Jellyfish, though, which I kind of didn't want to do but, you know.

I do think Jellyfish did drop the ball by not actually sealing the deal on screen, because I do think that show is presented as a romance. The director and writer have made it pretty clear that it's meant to end up romantic in post mortems over the last few days, and we got a LOT of good scenes on that front, but this show should have gone more explicit. If you're going to have some much insinuation and blatant relationship establishment, and are going as far as to say their relationship will evolve after the ending, then just do it. It's not exactly bait either, but in a way it's worse because it's someone telling you there's a full course meal that you're allowed to look at but not touch. I still think Jellyfish is good and the LGBT content within it is good, but it could have been more. Kano has pride pins on her backpack for God's sake.
