The Right Place, Time, and Chicken!

I think I'll explain myself poorly, but I'll try anyway. It's rare for me to find a show that I can't find faults with, that I never forward, and that I love every element of. From the colors, to the music, to the casting, the base details were perfect.
Then comes the story and the execution. Every single part was well thought out. I have never loved a show so instantly. I war with myself about getting bored easy, not giving things time. But... how do I explain this? From the very first moment Wen looked at Jim as if he'd seen the stars and the sun, I was sure that I was ready to give this time.

My review? People need to watch this show, not because of all the perfection but because there's so much to internalize and learn, and accept here. There's so much growth and progress for every single character involved. It's heartwarming to see this kind of love being shared. The frustrations of living, the amount of exercise and pain and MONEY it takes to just keep carrying on, that's what this show centers around. Being gay or straight or bi or pan or trans, just 'being' is sometimes so difficult, and this show is all about that. Just being, just living and discovering. I don't think I want to let go of the feeling this show left me with. The feeling of being full of love and acceptance and of feeling encouraged.

I am so thankful for this show, for the people who brought it to life, who thought of these stories, these peeks into another's life. I'm so thankful I got the chance to see this.

To anyone who's thinking or has thought that it's slow burn and it's painful, I'd like to say So What? I don't have any malice in that sentence though. I'm just saying... So What? It has so much to give, it has so much love to share. Let's try and embrace that love, let's try and accept that love.

I'm waxing philosophical about a show, but that's only because I feel full of love right now. And, I've got a strange urge to have some chicken. I hope anyone doubting the show watches it anyway.
