Very often in this business, that’s what tends to happen.”'

'Summing up Fringe and Limitless‘ perceived shortcomings, she said, “A lot of the time, those boy shows, it’s not that there’s anything against women, they just don’t know how to write women, so they go right back to [the trope of Steven] Spielberg, father-son — and there are mothers and sons, and mothers and daughters.”'

That made me cringe so hard. Don’t know how to write female characters? It’s like she forgot about Olivia, Astrid, Rachel, Etta and even Nina herself

Yeah, I didn't really see that 'change' a lot

Ah well, not really worth it. We love the show and the backstage drama doesn’t matter

**@l3jandra** · 08-09-2019, 04:24 PM

^ The show is over, we love it and that's what matters

**Ropetuned** · 08-09-2019, 04:54 PM

Definitely! The backstage drama can be ignored as long as we have an amazing show that we enjoy over and over

**stlavin95** · 08-09-2019, 06:00 PM

It certainly can be

Ironhorse25 · 08-09-2019, 07:56 PM

Well apparently Lance Reddick doesn't think so.

**stlavin95** · 08-10-2019, 12:04 AM

Probably easier for the fans to do that in this case

Yeah, like Lance said, it was tough for him so when he recalls his time on the show he tells his side.

Yep

**@l3jandra** · 08-13-2019, 07:48 AM

He seemed to get along with the rest of the cast though

Ironhorse25 · 08-13-2019, 03:00 PM

I guess he felt he had to get all of that off his chest.

**stlavin95** · 08-13-2019, 05:20 PM

Guess he did

**@l3jandra** · 08-14-2019, 07:42 AM

Makes sense
