the girls from class of 07 could definitely take the girls from yellowjackets in a fight. they don’t feel the need to distance themselves from the atrocities they commit. the yellowjackets girlies are like “the wildnerness chose” but the class of 07 girlies are like yeah no we’ll choose

I'm a little confused why everyone's saying Class of 07 has NO gay characters when tegan literally said "18 year old me thought she liked boys and that cargo pants were the height of fashion" in the scene where her and megan made up? like it's not much but it's not nothing

I will be genuinely disappointed if Zoe and Amelia don't end up together in the next seasons smh they are already in love imo... Class of '07 was a great show but should have been much much gayer

Ok need to put some thoughts out there about the new Amazon prime show Class of ‘07 bc I’m still here chewing on it. This has spoilers so I’ll try to do a cut thing (sorry still new to actually posting on tumblr lol). I think I want to just talk about the ending in this post.
Okay, I actually really loved the ending of s1, and it took me a second to understand why it felt like such a familiar experience. Like I’ve never had to live through an apocalypse where I am trapped with people from my high school on our old school grounds which is now just an island (thankfully, and knock on wood that never happens). But seeing all the women running to the cliff side with excitement thinking that maybe someone has come to save/help them, and then realizing very quickly that what is coming is not going to be their salvation…
Like something about that experience just felt very familiar and such a woman experience. I feel like I can’t be the only one who has had this type of experience where you think maybe it might be nice to have someone else around for their help, and it is a man, so you try to keep an open mind, but literally the moment they open their mouths, you regret it and immediately have to go back to defensive mode. Like seeing all the women pick up rocks and their knives as these men are yelling at them to “fire up their stoves,” that just tore me apart (but in an emotionally compelling way which is why I actually really did like that ending). I don’t think I’m saying anything that relevant or mindblowing, but I just wanted to put it out there. Trying to find more commentary on the show to see how other people view it.

Class of '07
Zoe was right in that Amelia was keeping her mother's death secret from her, and then blaming Zoe for not emotionally understanding.

The reason why I love Saskia so much and think she's hands down the best character of Class of '07 (in a cast full of really great characters) is that she's never just one thing or the other.
She was an awful bully and queen of the school, yet that school is also where she lived her biggest trauma. But the show never uses one thing to negate nor excuse the other; only uses it to inform and deepen Saskia's character.
Going back to the role of Queen Bee is torture and eats away at Saskia, because that's a side of herself she worked very hard to leave behind, and she only does it because she truly believes it's their only way of surviving. And we see it in those moments where she says people have no idea how much it hurts her to revert back to her mean girl persona and how much she resents Amelia for making her do it. She hates it.
However, she also almost revels in it, as it comes oh so easily and naturally to her. And she admits that she doesn't feel anything when she sees Laura collapse, she "murders" Sandy, manipulates conversations with Zoe and Teresa, shuns Genevieve, etc because she's doing what she has to to survive, keep riding, like he said, but also... It's like something in her shut off. And also came alive at the same time (we see that happening in real-time when she breaks in front of Teresa - who had just lost a toe, but that was also Saskia's thing until later in the season, how her pain seemed to matter more or something - and then when T bursts at her she shuts down and back into mean girl). And she hates that more than anything, as she admits, that she worked so hard to leave the mean girl behind and then it's so damn easy to be her again.
And then, she explodes. She goes ballistic on Renee and Phoebe, and when she's finally caught for "killing" Sandy she's willing to take her punishment. Relishes the opportunity to finally leave the mean girl behind. But then, she's confronted with just how much she hurt all the girls in her class, and she understands that her pain doesn't negate that, and she fully accepts her punishment. Becomes numb to everything that's happening to her, even.
I think Saskia only truly starts healing when Sister Bicky shows up and they have that conversation about him and how the faculty should have done more to deter him.
She's never just the bully, she's never just Queen Bee, she's never just the girl who was taken advantage of my a teacher, she's never just the byproduct of her trauma. She's never just sad or angry or guilty or cold. She's never just either victim or perpetrator. The villain or one of the heroes. She's all of those things all at once, and she can and does change from one facet to the other in a fraction of a second.
Speaking of whom, Saskia's complexity also shows in how she (rightfully) blames him for fucking her up, but also still remembers him in key moments (that line, "I don't understand how the person who fucked you up so badly could also be the voice of encouragement that you need to go on," is brilliant) and gets jealous when she finds out this other girl lasted longer, and still relies on her memories of him to find the strength to keep up the mean girl persona, for the sake of the group. Those are normal - and heartbreaking - consequences of that type of trauma, of course, but they also show just how layered Saskia is and how up to a point - and even if, like Genevieve said, she was a bully before year 12 - her trauma informs her mean girl bullying, and the bullying and inhabiting the mean girl skin again deepens the trauma.
She's possibly my favorite pseudo villain ever.
Anyway, Saskia is a fantastic character and that's thanks to the writers and Caitlin Stasey.

I cannot believe I haven’t seen like a post of Lottie Yellowjackets talking to her therapist and it cuts to Saskia Class of ‘07’s “therapist.”

hi! so i don't know if you're going to watch class of '07 on prime video but maaaan the subtext is strong with this one 👀👀 also emily browning is always a win :)
Hey, I'm definitely gonna! And I've been spoiled enough to know it is gonna be subtext over canon in this case, which was a bit disappointing to hear, but even so, everyone seems to have loved it, so I'll just watch it as a female-centric comedy.
First I gotta get through Sin Huellas (No Traces) and then I kind of want to watch the Boston Strangler movie (I just like Carrie Coon) and then I'll get on this one.
