MOTHERLAND: FORT SALEM (2020–2022): Extremely frustrating bootlicking modern fantasy series, set in an alternate America in which witches with genuine supernatural powers are required by law to submit to military conscription upon their 18th birthdays. The show follows three new witch cadets, Tally Craven (Jessica Sutton), Abigail Bellweather (Ashley Nicole Williams), and Raelle Collar (Taylor Hickson), as they go through basic training to join a magical War on Terror against a ruthless terrorist organization called the Spree — of which Raelle's new girlfriend Scylla (Amalia Holm Bjelke) is secretly an agent.

Although the premise is truly cringeworthy, the first season offers some intriguing worldbuilding (including a novel treatment of the witches' magic, which is called "work" and based on sound) and paints a surprisingly dark picture of the witch army — so dark that it starts to seem like the original intent might have been closer to Paul Verhoeven's STARSHIP TROOPERS than a supernatural TOP GUN. Despite all its unsavory flag-waving, the Season One storyline touches on the dehumanizing effects of military training, the Army's use of torture, the grim consequences of refusing conscription, and even the negative environmental impact of military witches' "work"; the season's climax then has the witches' rather sinister commanding general (Lyne Renée) — a 300-year-old witch who survives by literally stealing the youth from volunteers and who is apparently plotting a military coup — ordering the green recruits to commit an atrocity that has significant civilian casualties.

The second season, however, immediately beats a cowardly retreat from any criticism or questioning of the Army or its leadership, shrugging off the disturbing events of the previous season (without actually undoing or contradicting anything that was previously shown, including the atrocity the protagonists committed!) and shifting focus to a stupid, unpleasantly grisly new conflict with an ancient secret society of witch-hunting bigots that threatens all witches. This conflict also occupies the the third season, which drifts yet further afield with some oddball revelations about the ultimate source of witch magic and culminates in a finale that somehow manages to elide all of the actual conflicts established in the show.

The first season has enough points of interest to suggest an opportunity missed, but the increasingly repugnant jingoism and the later seasons' obnoxiously woolly mysticism (even by the standards of a show about military witches) become harder and harder to tolerate even on a dopey nerd show level, and of the ostensible core cast, only Scylla gets anything approaching substantive characterization. CONTAINS LESBIANS? Yes, but you'll hate yourself in the morning. VERDICT: If you can stomach the basic premise (Mazel tov!), the first season (and only the first season) might be worth a look, but the rest goes from bad to worse.

#teevee #hateration holleration #motherland fort salem #jessica sutton #ashley nicole williams #taylor hickson #amalia holm #lyne renée #the cruel thing about the first season #is that it gives the misleading impression that the show #might be capable of transcending (or inverting) its own jingoism #which makes the subsequent reactionary shit worse #than if it had just been top gun with witches from the start #i know many viewers stuck it out for raella and scylla #but raelle is so sidelined in the later seasons that there's no emotional momentum there #and it's pinkwashing #which sits very ill given the show's disturbing militarism #pinkwashing #look it up

We all know Jem Bellweather was one of the most powerful witches this army has ever seen, but it turns out this was just the beginning.

Can't believe I'm actually saying goodbye to them - but if I have to, at least I'll do it honoring their fight.

Goodbye, Soldiers. Goodbye, Sisters.

Spoilers❗❗❗❗❗

I can't remember the last time I've been su h a bundle of emotions omg so much happened in episode 9. From Raelle moving speech to Wade slapping a bitch, to a double wedding to chaos... Whew I'm a nervous wreck.

Going into episode 9 we knew from preview it was packed and the scenes literally felt like cut and paste go we had to fill in the blanks but it's obvious they're tying up all storylines and trying to reach a worthy conclusion.

President Wade walking in the way she did was everything I hoped and expected beating Silver at his own game on public tv which lead to the pardoning of core 4 (rightfully deserved) and a moment we all wanted... Badly.

I think I lost my voice when #Raylla finally got to the lighthouse my babies are so deserving of this moment it's what they've wanted for so long and to finally share it was so emotional but with our ship peace is a fleeting moment and chaos come knocking, I'm scared for the finale to be honest I wish we had more time to see them be wives to be at peace and find their way 🤷🏻‍♀️...

The wedding 😭😭😭. Edwin is such a beautiful human being he loves Scylla has his own and telling her to call him Dad and him dancing with his daughters 😭😭😭. When I tell you I bawled and been bawling whole episode this is not exaggeration

#Adigail 🗣️🗣️ deserve this too they've been a very solid couple from their inception and all through chaos they've been each other rock, I'm not a fan of shared weddings but in this case it felt like family sharing a special day together so I liked it both these couple deserve a MOMENT. A PAUSE. TO JUST BE. They've been through so much and they can't even enjoy their wedding night 😔

Listen here Sarah Alder you should've married Tally today too #Talder I get they aren't canon and yes, they were building Gregorio for Tally in S2 but after watching S3 and all that has taken place his presence and their romance just feels odd, out of character but it's neither the actor nor character fault its what's been giving to him.

Izadora... You beautiful brilliant woman I hope mother Mushroom take you into her blossom because it's where you belong, we will miss you

I'm not ready to say goodbye to this show or these characters especially #Raylla the finale is going to hurt me in more ways than one, I just hope it doesn't break my heart in taking any of them from me.

TWEET STORM ON TWITTER !

As usual I ask you to tag HULU , DISNEY PLUS, FREEFORM and don't forget the # of this event #HuluAdoptMFS.

The Tweet Storm is much earlier this month because of the "HULU upfront" which aims to announce new shows, or acquisition. We hope to have a surprise if the negotiations are completed in time.

Either way we will continue to fight, it would be a shame to give up now that a network is taking steps to get the show. It's so rare these days!

For information, the "Pick up the show" montages are in the google drive folder in order to prepare your tweets for Saturday. I remind you that we are targeting HULU, DISNEY+ and FF.

Thank you all !
