To qualify: I was thinking of shows like Grey's Anatomy and How to Get Away With Murder when I wrote that.
It's hard for me to get into them cause the love-is-the-reason trope comes up so much in every episode it starts to feel like there's no other emotion that could make for an interesting narrative.
And yet there is.
See, for instance, Little Fires Everywhere, which deals with themes like race, surrogate motherhood, gentrification and class division. Or American Gods, which subtly deals with multiculturalism and change in America.
All themes I'm way more excited to read about. But hey, you do you and I'll do the same.
