thinking about how fitzsimmons love story is so long and epic and yet it’s written so effortlessly and perfectly that they is barely anything I would change about it even if I could. like every separation, every moment of drama served to further their relationship

the writers took iain’s unavailability and turned it into a part of their love story without having them cheat on each other or break up. like nothing was ever done without reason and every tragedy was earned through moments of levity

like fitzsimmons is a masterclass in writing a long term relationship on television the way people want to see a relationship, the love, the devotion, the heartbreak, but they kept it interesting at every turn

like besides the last 10 minutes of 4722 hours and certain aspects of the framework I literally would not change a single moment
