AJ and the Queen

Now that I've seen the entire season, have to admit this seemingly trite concept has panned-out beyond the generic boundaries in thoughtful and useful ways. Of course and although the standard hero/villain, love/loss, rich/poor narratives wind well-trodden paths, they leave unsuspected and insightful foot-prints; stiletto prints where mom-runners are perhaps expected. Yet, timeless lessons are featured in crescendo ("Unspeakable Joy") and a few new narratives shed light and sensitivity on new subjects, like what may be described as the the youth suffering threshold and un-met needs currently carried by countless unaccepted, unloved, and un cared-for children in our society-along with a reminder of the un-met capacity of love and care that simultaneously exists within our LGBT community.
