Bert’s evidence on Greater City Water getting thrown out because he’s diagnosed with schizophrenia is so awful, and I love that the show doesn’t stop there. It doesn’t make him a punchline or a one-off. First of all, Rebecca sticks up for him in court. He has two PhDs, he is clearly knowledgeable, and his diagnosis shouldn’t detract from that. Don’t rule out his evidence just because of that.

But then they bring Bert back. They reintroduce him as one of the members of Rebecca’s group therapy. Then he comes to work for Whitefeather. We learn more about who he is as a person, his motivations and character. He’s a beloved member of the ensemble cast by the end, and he’s developed strong relationships with the rest of the cast.

This show is all about humanizing archetypes, beginning with the titular “crazy ex-girlfriend.” We start out with characters who fit into classic archetypes (“sweet dumb jock,” “rich entitled asshole,” “vain shallow girlfriend,” “funny best friend,” etc.) and then meticulously peel back their surface layers, delve deeper into who they are, reveal the real people they are. Even the minor characters get this treatment, no one is neglected. (Look at Jim, Tim, Maya, and Father Brah as other examples). In Bert’s case, he’s presented as “crazy conspiracy sewer guy.” But then they take his case and evidence seriously. Then they bring him back in several new contexts and tell us more about who he is. Then they make him the co-owner of Whitefeather and show us that he’s really good at his job and he’s friends with his coworkers. He ends the show thriving!!

One of the best things about this show is that every action has consequences. No detail is trivial. Everything is taken seriously, even throwaway one-liners are brought back like “wait let’s think about that for a sec.”

I mean this in the best way but watching your slow mental breakdown about crazy ex girlfriend is very entertaining

ok listen. pov you see me, in bed after a long day (crying, stress etc etc), i am finding ways to soothe myself. so what do i do? i go back to my hyperfixations of old i.e. crazy ex girlfriend.

it was an AMAZING show like COME ON there was so much positive representation of so many issues and not even in like a braggy way, they were just people living their lives and rebecca bunch?? oh my god don't even get me STARTED on her she represents me at my darkest times, she makes me feel like i deserve a happy ending, a good life, she makes me feel like i can be BETTER. like oh my god her arc of falling to pieces and then picking herself up again and then slowly stabilising is just so REAL to me and satisfying to watch, her self loathing and then self confidence, her fury, her sadness, her happiness, her strength like oh my goddddd

And ALSO!!! IT'S A GOD DAMN MUSICAL!! An amazing one at that!! it just is so clever and hilarious and witty and real and heart wrenching (to this day i have not managed to watch the very last episode cause i'll never stop crying, it's not a sad ending it just makes me emotional). the main cast is like well-fleshed out, they each get their moment and i genuinely love all of them

crazy ex girlfriend is a wonderful story about a woman who doesn't move to west covina, california to chase her ex boyfriend please watch it

(josh chan frustrates me, i would've loved her to be with greg but i understand why that couldn't happen, NATHANIEL MY BELOVEDDD)

thank you for enabling the rant this has been very enjoyable

me about crazy ex girlfriend

Website is in the tags!

she’s cringe. she’s cooler than you. she’s so so smart. she’s the biggest dumbass you’ll ever meet. she’s got mental illnesses the dsm hasn’t even got a name for yet. she’s fine she’s fine she’s great actually she’s the normalest girl in the world. she’s hurt so many people. she regrets it so much. she wants to hurt people again. she’s the most neurotic loser you’ve ever seen. she’s the most confident composed competent member of the team. she lies until she doesn’t know what’s real. she’s even bisexual. i didn’t say her name but she popped into your head didn’t she
