This is the best thing I have ever seen on Netflix. If you find anything better during my lifetime, please share. My only criticism is really a question: The series took such great care with respecting Emma's body -- not exposing too much of it, always giving her agency over it, and keeping it sacred to her. The way she was presented, in our faces, laid mangled and incapacitated on the wet street at the moment of her death, was jarring and I wonder -- was it really necessary for the purpose of telling that moment in the story? Otherwise, just about every moment in the series was relevant, riveting and relatable -- and so surprisingly hilarious at times.
