In season 3 of 'The Summer I Turned Pretty,' is Conrad taking "yearning" for Belly a step too far? Let's discuss.
A fan of the popular Amazon Prime series 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' has voiced strong criticisms regarding the latest season's portrayal of the character Conrad Fisher. In a recent video, user mdmagnuson expressed disappointment, stating, 'Why did Jenny Han turn Conrad into a stalker?' The fan elaborated on her concerns, highlighting a scene where Conrad travels across the world for Belly, remarking, 'It's giving stalker.' She argued that the show's direction has deviated significantly from the original books, losing 'so much of her internal dialogue' and making Conrad appear 'obsessed with a woman who does not give a crap about him.' mdmagnuson emphasized the emotional impact on long-time fans, noting, 'My 13-year-old self that was in love with these books, like that is who's watching this and she's feeling disappointed.' The video concludes with a plea for the show to 'wrap it up' and give the character more respectful development.
