Late to the party but obsessed with the show!

I love all the characters but Marie and Jordan are my bias, like individually and together as well.

But Jordan - what a brilliant character they created! I love everything about them. I love the actors. I love the character growth in the first season, I love their powers.

I especially love the hair!!! Like how it was all short and slick and military at the start and then the more they accepted themselves (and started falling for Marie) the more wild and curly it became. What an amazing detail!

And Marie, she had my heart from the first scene. Like getting your period and killing your parents, holy hell…

I loved Chance since Chilling Adventures, so it broke my heart when he passed… watching him now in Gen V was both sad and beautiful.

Anyway, I know y’all are probably sick of all the posts but I’ve spent the past 2 days on youtube watching vids and I needed to fangirl a bit. :D

I only really connected the dots while watching the youtube videos - probably something I would catch on a rewatch more! But I found it so perfect. 🥹 I saw a show set pic in this sub with London and Derek, and both had the same straight shoulder length hair - I wonder if they decided to step away from the metaphor if people thought the hair switch was a mess… I hope we’ll get to find out soon, I need season 2! 😭🤞

Welcome to the party. Gen v is one of my fave shows. I’ve seen the series about 9 times through and never picked up on the hair thing with Jordan. Great catch.

Tbh I watched the scene pack for Jordan on youtube, which includes all the scenes only Jordan is in, in chronological order, so it was much easier to make the connection between their hair. During watching the show (didn’t rewatch yet but I will!) I just thought huh, they change their hair a lot. 😂 But then in the scene pack I noticed their hair was slowly getting more curly and wild regardless of which gender they were presenting.

It just shows me how wonderful the writers/showrunners of the series are, to pay attention to use something like HAIR to tell a “story”. (Thus, I am now obsessed.)

I’m so happy that a character like Jordan is getting so much love. 🥹🫶🏼

I’m both excited and scared for the new season tbh I saw Derek’s hair in the images from the shoot and I can’t say I like it… But I think that’s just a personal preference, I never liked long hair on guys (like shoulder length or longer). London is as gorg as ever though, love that hairstyle on her. 😍😭

I've seen Gen V like four times and never noticed the detail of Jordan's hair, why the hell am I so blind? 😭

Hahaha I think a lot of people didn’t? I watched the scene pack of Jordan on youtube so it was much easier to notice when all the scenes were just them in chronological order. 😂
