I'm so beyond hyped, have over a month to go still, thankfully I have other shows to keep me busy in the meantime.

I'm glad they're expanding on female roles, going into Laura's backstory, making Bilquis into an actual character outside of her memorable scene and apparently also Audrey Burton (had to look her up, that's how memorable the character was) has a sizable role in the show.

Same =) and yeah I'm really glad they're doing this for certain characters. I'm already loving that quick scene of Bilquis and her past that we see in the trailer!

And yup, haha, I had wondered why she was being featured quite a bit in the panels (no offense of course to the actress) but I didn't realize they'd do that for Audrey as well. Will be interesting to see, though her relationship to both Laura and Shadow is pretty significant, especially if they're going to give us more Laura backstory!

Yeah, them fleshing out Bilquis and her past is good in my book, hopefully her killer sex scenes are kept to a minimum, just that one would be enough for me, even then I imagine it'll be awkward watching it with my mom, lol.

I don't remember anything about Audrey (besides what wiki tells me), so I'm definitely intrigued by her having more of a presence and them exploring Laura's backstory.

One of the things that makes me sad with the snail pace the show will go through the book (S1 is about a third) is no Sam, I want her to be on the show already.

Lmao her memorable scene was one of my fave parts of the book. I just hope they give her more to do than that and getting brutally murdered

I legit hated that scene so much, I almost quit reading. Maybe I'm too ace for it, but it was too weird and I was worried the whole novel would be like that, thankfully it wasn't. But yeah, I'm hoping her expanded role is actually delving into her character and fleshing her out, not just there for killer sex scenes.

yes I loooved her moment I'm excited to see how they work it on tv
