Gonna ramble a bit about

The Family Dynamics of My Dad the Bounty Hunter

Because I've never seen an animated property handle family conflict like this before.

Let's start with the titular character Terry Hendrix alias Sabo Brok

The first thing we learn about Terry is that he's a space bounty hunter.

The second thing we learn about Terry is that he's separated from his wife Tess because his job gets in the way of being their for his family.

And while Sean is still young enough not to resent his father's absence in his life Lisa is a few years older and makes it clear that she doesn't see her father as dependable.

This is mollified somewhat when the kids find out about his real job but the underlying issues: Terry's lack of communication and willingness to understand his kids. Remains the emotional linchpin of the narrative throughout season one.

When Lisa discovers that her dad's bosses are the bad guys and the person Terry's been tracking isn't a criminal but a rebel Terry doesn't listen. Prompting Lisa to help Vax behind her father's back.

Culminating in an argument in which Terry says that his job is what pays for everything their family has. An understandable motivation for a father. Parents sacrifice so many things to provide for their families.

But the thing is: Lisa is right.

Her dad's job may provide material benefits but at the cost of harming innocent people. And Terry finally decides to start listening to his family.

Then there's Tess, or rather, Janeera's relationship with her own parents. And this is where the family dynamics were really elevated for me.

Because Janeera ran away from her home after the pressure and expectations of an entire planet became too much.

For over a decade Empress Gurira and Emperor Odoman, her parents, didn't know if she was alive or dead.

Janeera leaving hurt them. Hurt them so much even over a decade later their grief is an ever present reminder of her loss.

And they are allowed to be hurt. Allowed to express that to their daughter just as she is allowed to express how stifled she felt when she left. They have all of Doloraam to care for after all.

Here a lesser show would have the daughter lessen her own pain to center that of her parents. But the writers don't do that here.

Janeera's pain is recognized and validated even as she has to confront it in order to move forward.

Empress Gurira even says that she "did not see" Janeera when their actions forced her daughter to flee Doloraam. And she has no intention of repeating that mistake.

I... I don't think I can overstate how important an admission of fault like that is from a parent to a child.

So often in our media and society the children are expected to do all the emotional labor of reconciliation. To forgive and forget when their parents have not shown any understanding of what they did wrong. Promoting toxic positivity over genuine healing.

Even, perhaps especially, when said children are now adults in their own right.

My Dad the Bounty Hunter is about aliens and space adventures yes but more than that it's about broken families finding each other again.

You can argue all you like about how it shouldn't matter whether the characters are black or white, men or women, straight or gay, whatever, as long as the story's good. And while you are technically correct - it SHOULDN'T matter - we still live in a time where it's absurdly rare to see THESE type of characters in THESE roles. A black family who acts black in a space adventure is still an egregiously rare thing to behold. And because it's so rare, getting to see them live these characters, say these lines, act this way, and be the main characters of their own story, is still a radical and ground-breaking thing.

Just like it shouldn't matter whether you choose a Male or Female Shepard when you play Mass Effect, seeing a woman deliver those lines the way Fem-Shep does genuinely hits different than hearing it from a man, because of the long history of sexism in sci-fi. It's that much more meaningful coming from the type of person who regularly gets shut out of the genre for such an arbitrary reason as gender. And the same absolutely applies to race.

I can't fucking believe we've advanced some 60 years past Nichelle Nichols first appearing as a main character on Star Trek and we're STILL having this same conversation about how differently it hits and how radical it is to see black characters in primary roles. It shouldn't have to be that way. But it still is, and it should still be celebrated every time.

So, I have a question for all of you fellow MDtBH (My Dad the Bounty Hunter) fans. This involves major spoilers for Seasons 1 and 2.

Are Tim and Pam the same species?

Because as we know, they're both alien reptiles underneath their "human" skins. I'm debating whether they are the same species or they are different but similar. For one thing, Tim (or The Fixer) would frequently blink his real eyelids, which are obviously reptilian. It's also worth noting he has human eyelids he blinks as well, which are completely separate from the real ones. Pam, however, is never seen doing that. This may be because Pam has learned to control when she blinks her real eyelids with her human ones. They both have higher strength and resilience in comparison to humans.

As for their true forms...

Unfortunately, we never got to see what Tim looked like with all of his human skin off, so part of his face is all we see. When comparing what we have with Pam's true form, their eyes are similar, with Pam's pupils looking more like slits. Now, you could say Tim has a similar reptilian form to Pam because Pam is clearly able to shapeshift in some way that lets her fit inside her human skin. Though from what we see with Tim, aside from his skin and eyes, nothing is all that different from his human appearance. That may be, however, because he can't turn into his true full reptile form because he would need the human skin to be completely off.

So that answers the question of Tim and Pam being the same species of alien reptile. They are lizard-like aliens that can shapeshift themselves to fit inside skins to make them look human and unsuspecting.

But what if that's not the answer?

Then, there would be two more possibilities:

Tim and Pam are NOT the same exact species. While they share similar features between themselves, the simple answer would be that they are both reptile aliens, but different kinds. Tim is from a more anthro/human-like species of reptiles and Pam is from a more lizard-like species. This was my initial thought when I first completed both seasons before thinking about it more.

Tim and Pam ARE the same species BUT the differences are due to their sexes. This answer is basically my case of "having your cake and eating it too". We have seen many species in fantasy and sci-fi that have their differences between the males and females. We would more commonly see the males as more rugged or animal-like while the females take on a more human and conventionally attractive appearance. With Tim and Pam, this could be the other way around. It could be the females are the ones that are animal-like and the males are more human-like. This is an idea that I REALLY love, but it wouldn't surprise me if my main answer was the correct one.

So, those are my thoughts on this topic.

Am I thinking about this too much? Yes.

Do I care? XD Hell no!

That just shows how much I LOVE these characters! 💕
