Regardless of how you watched the part 1 finale (AMC+, live on TV, etc.), the suffering and pain probably hit you all the same. It has most of us shaking in our boots, has queer spaces in extra shambles, and this time we’re not being forced to suffer through the “bury your gays” trope.
Spoilers ahead!
Instead, we’re squinting our eyes at Louis (Jacob Anderson) calling Armand (Assad Zamar) the love of his life, worried about Daniel (Eric Bogosian), and sweating until season 2. I’ll personally be yelling from the rooftops that somebody needs to help Louis (and Daniel because he’s probably not leaving Dubai anytime soon) until part 2. Naturally, Twitter has reacted in ways that range from comical to violin-worthy. Browsing through the reactions is like a reprieve and therefore I’m giving you some reprieve as well. So, pick up your bleeding heart and enjoy the following tweets.
