Oh boy. I've avoided this show because this very subject stabs so very close to home. If I could have begged someone for more time with my son, I absolutely would have, too. As it stands, I will just hope that I can one day either be with someone who has kids or maybe even adopt one day. We'll see where life takes me. Thank you, Jono, for covering this topic. Being an invisible mother is so much more difficult than many realize.
It was eye-opening, seeing Agatha's backstory; she became a sympathetic villain, similar to Thanos. I'm not sure Nicky needed a different father; since Death is a personification, there's no reason it couldn't manifest as a male as much as a female. The Rio persona was how Death related to Agatha. I'm also interested in what you think of Billy; how did he handle what he went through, how he took accountability for what he did on the Witches' Road. There's also a family matter that may be worth examining (spoilers follow): One of the issues people had with Wonder Woman '84 was Diana's involvement with Steve while he inhabited someone else's body; that person was seen as a victim of abuse at Diana's hands (though I doubt she intended that). Billy isn't in the same situation that person was, but he's not William Kaplan either. While I don't think he's been inconsiderate or selfish in not telling William's parents what happened to him, Billy is being dishonest. I would like to see that plot thread pulled a bit more (maybe in Vision Quest?) (I don't think Marvel mis-stepped with this the way DC did, but it's not been addressed as far as I know.)
Agatha All Along was a fantastic show that made me go through all the feelings…. I fully believe any loving mother would always want more time with their child, if they knew the child would not live a long and happy life. I can’t fault Agatha for that. I think the person that moved the needle of Agatha being a better human the most was Billy. He became a pseudo son to her and she longed for him to really be Nicholas.
I’ll be facing the scariest time in my life in time , I’ll be losing my mother …. I know I can’t reverse it or stop it …. I wouldn’t wish this on anyone even those close to me who have hurt me badly beyond repair ,,, I know when that time comes I will be forever changed I won’t be the person I was ,,,, my wounds will be open but I’ll heal revealing the scars of the hurt on my forever changed heart , because I know I’ll never share a bond with anyone else and the only person that will ever understand me in my whole life , I’ll be walking this daunting world alone …. Forever changed forever more , but with love and peace not hate … 🙂
Came here looking for Gilmore Girls gets Therapized 😞. Why this analysis of other TV shows goes to other day? I don't want to be a pessimistic, but at this pace we will never get to the season seven. Or the One yaear in life.
Someone on the last Gilmore Girls episode just complained that there was too much Gilmore Girls being covered. This channel is great for Jono to be able to explore multiple options that he may not get to cover on Cinema Therapy (for good reasons). I personally think it's great to see a variety of TV shows and other mental health topics be covered, and trust that he'll get around to covering what he can 😁.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my brother when I was 11 and he was 16. I remember how it affected my mom.
@jenniefelix2283 I'm so sorry for your and your mom's loss, as well. Losing loved ones is always so difficult, no matter the age or relationship 💙.
Agatha All Along has one of the most unique interpretations of death I've ever seen!!!
Thank you very much! I asked for this on the Cinema Therapy channel 💜
I love Agatha All Along Show so it makes you me happy you talk about the show thank you.
If you therapized each of the characters in this show individually, it would not be a waste of time. Do Lilia (Patti LuPone) next!

Man, I saw this entire series, but I never saw this episode where her son dies or where she made the song with him. How did I miss that whole episode?

Aubrey Plaza was just so perfectly cast in this
How can you have forgotten the name of "The Darkhold" ? Your Marvel card is revoked sir! :)
