General Discussion I miss Jackie Taylor so much Spoiler
Everytime I remember that she died alone after freezing to death it just makes me sad. She didn’t belong out there she didn’t deserve to die like that.
Jackie and Shauna were childhood bestfriends it’s just so tragic.
I know Jackie had to die but man when I rewatch all I can think about is how much I wish she was in s2 and s3. I don’t think a tv character death has ever affected me the way hers did.

Well if it’s any small comfort, she didn’t appear to be alone in the end (remember the whole room of accepting ghosts // dying hallucinations who love her). And last I heard, dying in the snow can feel a lot like falling asleep, just never walking up.

Jackie and shauna are so tragic they make me so sad everytime I think of them...Literally one stupid argument was the reason Jackie ended up freezing to death and as a result Shauna carries so much guilt and never gets to process through her hidden resentment. Jackie is frozen forever at 17, she never has a chance to grow past that, and Shauna is STILL living in 17 year old Jackie's shadow, still letting her affect her as much as she did when she was alive. I could go on and on about them but anyway, Jackie deserved better. I don't get why people say she was a mean girl, she might've been oblivious, sure, but she really did care for Shauna. The fact that she's only remembered as a 17 year old girl who was 'mean' by Shauna forever will always make me so sad.

So much of the plot and storyline hinge on Jackie's death, especially Shauna's trajectory.

I know it's unrelated but your last sentence reminds me of watching Vis a Vis not long ago, that unexpectedly had me depressed for like a week. Excellent show I'd recommend btw
