disappears off the face of the earth and reappears just to say hey have you guys seen this show?

#you guys should watch this show #lidia poët on netflix it's so delightful #usually like faux feminist historical shows really grate on my nerves but this one was genuinely a good time #maybe because it's funny #or the relationships are all really delightful between the eponymous lidia poët and everyone around her #or maybe im just gay #i wont deny it plays a role #the OUTFITS #also i think theres this like needle to thread is that the idiom when you make a story about like a real life woman who faced sexism #bc like you need conflict to have a story but sometimes that leads to the woman in question just constantly being beaten down #you know what i mean? #sometimes it feels like that #but i think this one does it well #i think bc like lidia faces all the sexism every time she steps out of the house #and also inside the house from her brother and sister in law #but she also has people - men - who love and support her..........disobedience #i think thats well balanced i think thats why it works #also shes just great #funny and obstinate but also kind #theres one moment i wanted to put in the video but couldnt find the right place for #actually two #one where shes talking abt a client to her brother and shes like 'shes an anarchist and a bit of a bitch but shes also innocent' fghjkgh #another time shes talking to her niece abt her crush lorenzo and shes like 'you can tell me. as a lawyer i offer confidentiality' #and her niece is like 'technically youre not a lawyer anymore' #and lidia is like '......bitch. theres nothing wrong with liking him you know' #it's just really cute hgkghh i love the relationships she has with literally everyone in her life #if you wanna watch it for like the lawyer thing you can skip it theres no lawyering being done really #because shes not allowed in court rip #shes more like a bit of a sherlock holmes #you know like the american one with the female watson whats it called.........elementary
