3.19, “A Moving Day” - We Did ItSo, let me just say this first. This storyline, about the wedding being called off and then put back on, didn’t really work for me.It’s unfortunate because I think it could have been good but it never came together in a satisfying way. It’s off, then we have a little stuff with Bex seeing the snow globe and her talk with Bowie, then it goes unmentioned for a few episodes and then: surprise, a wedding on the mountain.Let me also be clear, I do not blame the producers for this one bit. There is one person at fault for messing up this storyline by forcing reshoots. I think the producers did as best they could with a terrible situation.And the ceremony is still very sweet and it looks great. I just didn’t get the emotional payoff from the whole thing, though, and I say that as someone who was getting emotional all the time during this backstretch of episodes.What I did think was excellent though, was their little exchange after their first kiss, because that wasn’t about this wedding storyline, it was about the culmination of three seasons of their relationship.You know it must feel so great for Bowie to finally be able to say they did it. This marriage is something he’s wanted for so long now and he’s almost definitely questioned if it would ever happen. But now, here he is, with his wife and his family. Together. It’s all he’s ever really wanted.And Bex thanking Bowie for sticking it out? That’s not just this last minute cancellation of their wedding. That’s everything. That’s thank you for sticking it out through my teenage years, and through meeting my family, and through learning about Andi so late in her life, and through dealing with the on-again-off-again nature of our relationship since you returned to Shadyside, and through this last minute cancellation of our wedding. It’s for being reliable when people weren’t sure you ever could be. It’s for being understanding. It’s for being patient.There’d been so much drama and uncertainty, but he stuck with her, and it paid off for both of them.And it paid off for the whole family.The group hug with Andi and Celia afterwards is so beautiful. It feels like they finally found it. After three seasons (though, really, after 14 or so years of their lives) of shifting responsibilities and relationships, of learning how to navigate their new family dynamics, of growing into their new roles, they finally found their places. They reformed their family unit. Here, at the top of a mountain, they finally did it. They became the Macks. -- source link
