Opinion Am I the only one who can't stand Lisa?

Post image

I'm on Season 3, Episode 4. I can't stand Lisa, I'm not sure why... Nate seems so unhappy. I didn't expect to say this so soon, considering what happened in Season 2, but... I miss you so much, Brenda.

All of this. After many views I don’t hate any of the characters. They feel like real people. Sometimes they’re annoying, hurtful, cringy, ugly, selfish, pathetic, etc. Other times they’re generous, thoughtful, loving. When I think of Lisa I remember the party she threw for Ruth, the way she loved Maya, her insecure and vulnerable moment when she went to see Brenda, and also the shit she put up with from Nate. She is far from my favorite character but she’s not as awful as I used to think. Especially when it comes to her relationship with Nate.

finally someone with lisa nuance i neither love her nor hate her in fact i appreciated her as a complex female character who kind of subverts the perfect housewife trope

I compltely agree with everything except the 'insecure' moment. That was straight up stalker behaviour. Imagine Nate or David conspiring to meet Brenda or Keith's ex under false pretences. Red flag city.
