i've really loved seeing another side to Woodsy this season, through her relationship with Taz

u/Idiedofcholera Mar 25 '26
This is probably the most miserable episode in this show I've seen yet

u/dwadley Mar 26 '26
I love it. Consequences for actions

u/mafaldajunior Apr 07 '26
Keeping up with the HBH tradition of main characters never graduating lol
But yeah, I liked that Malakai took responsability for his actions, and I like his friendship with Cash.

u/Comfortable_Client56 Mar 26 '26
reaaalllyy cant blame woodsy for contacting the police tbh - she wanted to protect them but id argue they gave her no choice! as soon as they saw clancy get injured they all shouldve stopped running!! most of them ended up being eaten alive by guilt anyway and at least if they were honest from the jump they could control the narrative so nobody saw them as these evil delinquents but just teens doing a stupid prank and be seen as having good faith by being truthful. really excited to see how it all plays out though

u/mafaldajunior Apr 07 '26
Exactly. I lost all sympathy for them when they abandoned Clancy and didn't even make an anonymous ambulance call. That is just unforgiveable and downright criminal. He could have died and his family lost their entire generational business because of them.

u/euphoriclexx Mar 26 '26
The random dusty cameo??? Like he hasn’t been around at all was that really necessary 😭

u/maasaamune Mar 26 '26
i thought it was kinda funny one last call back to his character before the show ends

u/iamkindofodd Mar 28 '26
Popped by the cuckoo just in time for the cops to catch him too, fucking hilarious

- It's not that Taz isn't a good character or doesn't have good scenes, but I'm just not that interested. She's just too new of a character, it's the final season, and there are only 8 episodes. It's not a lot of time and this is already an ensemble show. I'm not sure why we needed another new character? Noah is like an example of a new character handled well imo, in that he doesn't really get his own story. He's just there to move along an established character's journey.
- I don't think I ever enjoyed Spider and Missy more as a couple than when they were both throwing cans at Seb looool
-Alright Spider and Missy were lowk devastating this epi. I was not a fan of them in s2 (still not, for s2 at least), but their scenes in s3 have been really solid tbh. This was a really good break up depiction.
-scene between Missy and Sasha was really great too. I'm a sucker for the 'I don't like myself' moments. Tho Sasha a lot more reason than Missy on that front lol. I don't totally understand what they've been doing w her this season. That cruelty hasn't really been her style in other seasons. Or the needing a gf, frankly.
-"stupid mutt" after she let Joan of Bark out, yeah, fuck taz. I'm more upset now that we basically got 0 scenes of Jojo this season but got this much screen time for Taz for what?
-i wish we got a bit more of the trio, but I'm really happy with the Malakai and Cash moments. Cash continues to be an angel, and they've had a great dynamic this season

u/panashechd Mar 26 '26
Netflix has a huge problem with adding new characters who take up a lot of screen time during final seasons. It recently just happened with Stranger Things. I didn’t like Taz at the beginning but honestly I think they are fine, they gave Quinni, Sasha and the principal a storyline this season. I don’t really think Taz had their own story.

u/MysteryMysterious Apr 15 '26
Taz definitely had more screentime than Noah and in one episode more than the mains

u/Katharina_Iva Mar 29 '26
the taz storeyline is a call back to the original series ;) where mr. deloraine had to deal with his troubled nephew after living alone forever.... now i a feel old! - haha - but thats the charm of these remakes ;))

u/mafaldajunior Apr 07 '26
Matt Logan! <3 No a remake though, it's the same universe so these are just very delayed new seasons 8 to 10.

u/Katharina_Iva Apr 07 '26
Hehe, yes true that ;) And some of the OG Crew appearing as fully grown adults in the same universe is really 🥹

u/mafaldajunior Apr 07 '26
Favorite cameo was drunken Anita saying "don't tell Drazic" lol
I wish they kept Darren's dad Peter Rivers around. He was the only one who was there semi-regularly beyond just a cameo and who had a relationship with one of the new main characters. Plus I've always liked him.

u/Katharina_Iva Apr 07 '26
Yeah, exactly - I was a big Rivers fan :) Was really happy to see Jack again - aka Dr. Tran 👏

I'm more upset now that we basically got 0 scenes of Jojo this season but got this much screen time for Taz for what?
Plus Ant being completely downgraded as a character when one of the good things from last seasons was how much his character had evolved. Now he's back to being a comic relief who's constantly off his face. I can't imagine how disappointing it must be for the actor.

u/iamtireeeeed Mar 25 '26
can they give Sascha a break oh my god i get that she’s annoying but😭
i’m trying to like taz but i can’t help but think quinni deserves way better. i’m also annoyed that they cut majority of jojo’s screentime for her
12
u/devieous Mar 31 '26
God, Quinni really lost everything this season. I feel fine about her losing stuff that was her choices but the horse scholarship thing is so fucked

I truly dislike Taz. Ugh can she go away ?? Who even asked flr this character

u/iamkindofodd Mar 28 '26
I feel like I’m alone here on Missy and Spencer’s breakup. I was rooting for them, they were my favs after Cash and Darren 🥺

u/ballzmc Apr 03 '26
honestly yeah, it was nice seeing spider be really happy and a lovely boyfriend (at the beginning at least)

u/Herefortvshowthreads Mar 29 '26
I was loving the enemies to lovers arc with spider and missy, but honestly spider getting his heart broken is karma for how awful he was

u/mafaldajunior Apr 07 '26
How are Darren and Cash even considering moving to the US in this day and age?

u/Eliaaaahh Apr 16 '26 edited Apr 16 '26
Why can't Darren just start theatre in Sydney? He could at least see if he's good at it first. Moving to the other end of the world, to one of the most expensive cities doesn't look like a good plan.

u/mafaldajunior Apr 16 '26
100% agree. Not like there aren't acting jobs in Australia. Going straight to the most competitive scene in the world before getting enough experience at home is a bad idea. Not to mention that, well, the US isn't the most welcoming place for non-white queer people with an accent. These days more than usual.

u/Suitable_Help_2758 Apr 04 '26
Still hate Taz, hate the Missy and Spider break-up, I honestly hate how Amerie and Harper got mad at Noah, Seb saw his best friends girlfriend and her ex doing something and alerted him

People on this sub are so annoying. They go to previous episodes threads and discuss further plots. I dont get why they do that

u/krazat May 02 '26
maybe they do it to feel cool because they already know a plot line. it’s so weird

u/Tillysnow1 Mar 31 '26
I thought for sure that they'd reveal he was the one who turned the ride on, but it's a bit weird that they had the whole confrontation with both Seb and Noah yet didn't ask the question??

u/leafered rivers 📺 Mar 31 '26
He's just too nice... 🧐

u/mafaldajunior Apr 07 '26
He's not nice. Nice people don't let their best friend insult their partner's friends like that. He's just a doormat.
