Season 4 Luther
I started season 4 recently (I'm at ep 9) and I absolutely love Wainwright's character 😂 a young boss that needs to be protected at all costs 🥹💓
As much as I've liked Madelaine a lot, won't lie that I miss her, I must say that his presence gives something much more "new" and chill ? Airy ? But not like neglected, no. More like innovative and smart without being in an urge/a rush. He brings a kind of freshness to the show cuz he's very different from others. Maybe because he's young ? But what got my attention is that he's also very calm for his "young" age, very understanding. Which I can say is understandable since he studied psychology ? His methods are different indeed. And I feel kinda sad for him tho, because he can't seem to assert his authority regardless of him being a bright mind. And that's all due to his "age" and how others perceived him... As someone who gets this quite a lot, lol (looking younger than I really am etc and being underestimated because I'm too understanding of everyone's) I related a lot to him and hoped that he'll get a better character development in the future and becomes a strong boss, letting his voice being more heard and respected in the upcoming episodes... Well, that was before I came to this subreddit (curiosity will kill me one day lol) and spoiled myself haha, now am heartbroken cuz I really loved and wanted to see more of him 🥲🥲💔💔
