[Hey Lo]

what even is that

its a show abt
nne with an E is a reimagined adaptation of Anne of Green Gables, following the life of Anne Shirley, a bright, imaginative, and outspoken orphan girl in 19th-century Prince Edward Island. At the start of the series, Anne is mistakenly sent to live with Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert, two elderly siblings who had intended to adopt a boy to help on their farm, Green Gables. Though Marilla is hesitant at first, Anne's charm, intelligence, and fierce spirit eventually win her over. Anne struggles to fit in with the conservative community of Avonlea but slowly earns their respect, especially after befriending Diana Barry and clashing academically (and emotionally) with Gilbert Blythe, her future love interest.

As the series progresses, Anne starts to explore deeper questions about her identity, self-worth, and the world around her. In Season 2, the show introduces new characters like Cole, an artistic boy navigating his sexuality, and Sebastian “Bash” Lacroix, a Black man from Trinidad who becomes Gilbert's close friend. The show uses their stories, and Anne’s growing awareness, to dive into topics like racism, homophobia, gender roles, and feminism. Anne begins writing, questioning societal norms, and advocating for justice in her small town. Meanwhile, the Cuthberts face personal and financial hardships, with Matthew suffering a near-fatal collapse, and Marilla growing more emotionally open through her bond with Anne.

In Season 3, Anne turns 16 and begins a search for her birth parents while applying to Queen’s College. A powerful new storyline emerges around Ka’kwet, a Mi’kmaq girl who is taken from her family to a residential school, highlighting the racism and colonial oppression of Canada’s past. Anne becomes more vocal and political, publishing a controversial school newspaper that challenges the town's views on race, gender, and class. Meanwhile, Bash and his wife Mary face intense racial prejudice, and tragedy strikes when Mary dies in childbirth. Gilbert continues his medical studies, and as he and Anne finally confess their love for each other, the season—and series—ends with Anne leaving for college and the two promising to stay in touch.

Despite critical acclaim and a passionate fanbase, Anne with an E was cancelled after Season 3, leaving some storylines unresolved, particularly Ka’kwet’s. However, the series ends on a hopeful note, showing Anne stepping into adulthood with confidence and purpose. Ultimately, Anne with an E is not just a coming-of-age story; it's a bold and emotional drama that blends the charm of the original novels with modern themes of social justice, identity, and resilience.

I think what irritates me the most, as someone who loves history and historical fiction in general, is that I find the "modern girl-bossification" of older characters to be forced and cringe.

I never needed Anne to insist to talk about periods for her to feel relatable and like a "good person" to me. If anything, Anne's small acts of social defiance within her smaller reach were what made her so real; she was ready and able to get a full education and had strong literary aspirations, which I was awed by.

She also was "feminine to her core" and once harbored a deep desire to be prettier if it meant being less intelligent. That will be 500 times more endearing and realistic to me.

The grittier tone also wasn't to my liking, but the above irritated me more lol

I will say, casting and set pieces were phenomenal; it was like seeing all the images in my head since I was 11 come to life on screen. I wish they could've made it so much more book accurate
