I really need someone to write some more fanfiction for this show and ship. This show better get picked up for another season because it’s soooo good.

Just finished season 1 of Harlem, and first of all: GO WATCH IT NOW. Hands down one of the best shows of 2021.
The four women are amazing, love the caricatures of white people, all the characters are so well fleshed out and despite this being a comedy it doesn't shy away from the complicated topics, the characters' flaws, and showing how tough life can be regardless of money and status. Loved Camille's opening and closing voiceovers and how it was weaved into both the story for each episode AND that unique Harlem identity. Whoopi Goldberg is still a Legend. The only thing I didn't like was Ian lol, but I guess I'll have to warm up to him.
The acting is FLAWLESS and Angie's voice? Fucking heavenly.
As for the wlw, SPOILERS: Tye is so awesome. I'm sad she didn't stay with Hannah (I think that was the Vogue reporter's name) but that was an essential step in her character development, which comes to a head in the last two episodes. And Quinn ❤ she was my favorite even before her coming out story and AHSHDHSHSHSJNBSGGXFSVSVFAGSHAJJALLAKAJDHHAHAKAKL I'm so happy she's bi!!!!!! Or pan! And Isabela? My. Goodness. Please marry me, Miss Politician. Both Tye, as the fully out woman, and Quinn's, as the one who's still figuring out, stories are wonderful and beautifully told. Loved all of it and love love love that they didn't just stick with the quota and actually gave us TWO juxtaposing wlw stories, where the characters are at different stages of their coming out journey.
I love all the ways the story and the characters can go from here, and I'm so, so excited for season 2. I CAN'T WAIT.
Also, I may or may not want Juani Feliz's children.
