One of the reasons I love Kelly so much is facially she looks almost identical to a good friend of mine. AND she has a normal body. NORMAL. That is one of my favorite things about British TV is like you said, not everyone looks plastic. People are allowed to look like REAL. It's wonderful.
I kept hoping for a polyamorous solution on LG. Frankly, until Bo gained control of her powers she had NO business being with Lauren. At the end of the season she still wasn't completely in control and I've got to respect her for not going there and risking hurting someone she genuinely cared about. My biggest problem with LG is how Dyson and Trick were constantly trying to take away Bo's agency. Kensie in the finale urging Trick to help wasn't any better. I realize character wise they were just trying to help their friend, but sometimes the best way to help someone is to let them stand on their own two feet.
I LOVE that Dyson thought he was giving up his Wolf and instead lost his love for Bo -- I'm looking forward to seeing that play out. I actually liked him better at the beginning when he was so cold and stand offish [what? I have my kinks]
And yes, irt non-sexualized female friendships on TV. It shouldn't be so rare, yet it IS
