I just wish they hadn't tried to make Jessie the typical mean hot girl in the beginning. Her becoming the sweet, pure one felt forced at first because of that.

But yeah, it was nice to see a white girl lose her mind and the black girl save the day.

REALLY!!THAT'S WHY YOUR HAPPY SHE SURVIVED BECAUSE SHE WAS BLACK..WHAT A BUNCH OF CRAP!!!OH NO!!! WE CAN'T BE HAPPY SHE SURVIVED BECAUSE SHE WAS A GOOD CHARACTER WHO WAS WELL WRITTEN AND THE ACTRESS WHO PLAYED HER DONE A GREAT JOB WHICH SHE WAS AND WHICH SHE DID..WE HAVE TO BE HAPPY BECAUSE SHE WAS BLACK AND IT WAS A WHITE GIRL GETTING WHAT WAS COMING TO HER!!!IT'S SAD THAT SOCIETY HAS DEGENERATED INTO THIS KIND OF THINKING...

Africa has 50 countries where the heroine is black.

China has the heroine Chinese.

India has the heroine Indian.

i don't care what color the person who survived was, i'm just happy a likable, intelligent, caring character like Jesse was the hero/survivor.

reply

I'm just happy Jessie wasn't the stereotypical good girl heroine. We saw her backstory and the events that made her transition into the mean spirited girl she was at camp and we also saw her turn back into her normal good hearted self. The diversity was nice too but I like her for more reasons than her being black

reply

I'm also a little glad that the first person to die on the show wasn't immediately a poc or a lgbt. I like Jessie's character for more than just her race and I thought she was going to be a generic character at first.

You honestly thought they were going to kill Blair or Drew. Nope. Never was going to happen.

reply

Yup the black girl, the gay guy and the Trans f>m are the 3 heroes of the show. All the SJW's can sleep soundly in their gluten free beds tonight as everyone has been equally pandered to.

reply

Only heroes? So you're saying all the white people that died trying to stop the evil weren't heroes? Are YOU saying that our troops who died for this country, cops and firemen who dead in the line of duty are NOT heroes? Are YOU saying that the only troops, cops , and firemen who lived through chaos are the only heroes? Look Trump you won, it's no use to keep bringing up McCain POW war record in this.

Guys calm down, either way each race wins because come on,but is quite obvious that she isn't just black. She is obviously biracial, so stop fighting and share the glory or whatever. And why in the world does it matter what race the heroin is? Just be happy there was a mostly happy ending.
