The final two episodes of AppleTv+’s Surface are out now! In the end how much of our destiny is the result of fate vs one’s own free will? Do you get to choose if you’re good or bad? Those are some of the big questions this series explores and ones we love to debate on this podcast. 
Speaking of questions, we’ve come to the finale and we still have a few. We’re also not sure how to feel about some characters by the end — even Sophie — but they’re certainly nuanced and complicated! Perhaps all of this will lead us to a Season 2?! But would we watch? Listen to find out (hint: creator Veronica West’s brain is a major tip of the scale in favor - check out our interview with her too!).

Surface finale: we need more!

In Pop Fiction Women we deep-dive into the complicated women of books, movies and TV shows, along with the women that bring them to life behind the scenes. Think Fleabag and Phoebe Waller Bridge, Normal People and Sally Rooney, and so much more. In each episode you can expect us to: * Break down the protagonist as we ask what makes her complicated? * Identify the best scenes, which can mean sweetest, funniest, or most badass. Anything we love. * Recount the cringiest scenes. The ones that make you squirm. Sometimes it’s self-sabotage, sometimes it’s growth, but it’s always part of the process of becoming our complicated selves. * Play arm-chair therapist in What’s Your Damage, Heather? An homage to the iconic line in Winona Ryder’s Heathers, we discuss how these characters got to be the way they are. * “What She Said” - the segment where we scour every essay and interview with the women behind the scenes and share some of our favorite first person quotes. Real life is as interesting as fiction here. * Look into our crystal ball and ponder where these characters are six months later and five years later. Typically, Kate gets very real and Carinn gets buck wild. * Provide a takeaway, aka that part in the podcast where we try to sound deep. We leave you with some parting wisdom, challenge each other with thought-provoking questions inspired by the work, and urge you to “stay complicated.”
