What she says: I’m fine

What she means: When Carson and Greta go to the gay bar together Carson wears her favorite dress (and Greta KNOWS it’s her favorite dress because Carson told her when she spilled beer on it) and when they go on their pizza date Greta wears the same dress that she wore on her date with the guy (possibly as a careful and clever way to signal that it’s a date in a way that only Carson would pick up on) and I just think that’s really cute and I love the way the writers and/or costume designers on this show not only had the characters realistically wear things more than once but also put in so much thought to when and why they’d wear certain outfits

#she’s a goddamn star!!!!#listen she carries a storyline that is inherently challenging to plot out because it HAS to lag behind the pace of the ‘main’ narrative#she’s at the starting line with the other girls but isn’t allowed to compete so we watch her struggle to get back in the race#and it takes the whole damn season and from a storytelling perspective the stark contrast in forward motion between the two narratives#is a little jarring at times because Max is not living a Sports Movie Narrative; she is living a Dark Night of the Soul Narrative#and it’s a challenge to put those stories concurrently and line them up but the writers did so well#(it doesn’t hurt that the secret they unlocked for success was bridging everything with the Queer Experience)#anyways you also need a goddamn force to carry this Dark Night of the Soul Narrative and Chanté Adams delivers#so fucking winsome and charming and carries this whole thing#(but also shout out to Gbemisola Ikumelo because she’s a radiant joy and an absolute bright star on this show too) @drshebloggo

People need to realize that the original A League of Their Own movie did not cover half of the storylines that the A League of Their Own TV show covered because it was made in a time when these topics were still very much taboo, not because these storylines "didn't happen" and were just added for the "woke, liberal agenda"
