at what point are the writers for the twenty shows that killed off lgbt women this past season going to look around and notice the other nineteen shows who killed off lgbt women this season and realize their clever plot twist wasn’t so clever
“Well we had always planned for her to die, it was the logical end of her character arc–”
Maybe think real hard about why the “logical” end of every lgbt woman’s character arc mysteriously happens to be death. Maybe think about why you don’t write lgbt women and black women with the intent that they will live.
“Well, lots of characters die on this show, we’re not singling them out.”
Yes, except for the members of your invincible core cast who are, mysteriously, straight and cis and white and who are, mysteriously, always exempt even when you’re trying to show us that “anyone can die.”
“But it was well-written!”
If you had done anything else so tropey and predictable that like nineteen other shows did the same thing in the same season, would you really be saying it was great writing?
