Kat is Out!- Barbie Ferreira is “not returning” for Euphoria season 3

Fat Tumblrina won't be missed. She can start a GoFundMe like the rest of her followers, BYE!

Good! This newbie twat seriously thought she could lecture the showrunner -- whom I dislike -- on how her tertiary character should be written, and in the second season already? Who does that?

this matters a lot. thank you.

That's on Sam Levinson. He can't write female characters and refuses to expand the writers' room. His only endgame is to see some teenage tits, it's embarrassing.

Agree r2.

I liked her performance fine enough in Season 1, but I have little sympathy. An actor refusing to do their job because they disagree with the writing choices? Suck it up, that's how it works, you are the actor not the writer. You aren't Zendaya hon, and your ego is too big if you think you can be that demanding to work with.

To be fair r5, Jacob Elordi made demands and all of them were met by Levinson.

Didn't she also audition for the Madonna role? Talking about audacity here.

She should lose the weight again and reinvent as a leading lady. Stunt on Sam Levinson.

That is just online gossip r6. With Barbie her and Sam's arguments were widely reported. She refused to go to the premiere. Helen Keller can see the tension.

She’ll never be a leading lady but she can do more supporting roles

R9 the gossip about Jacob has been floating around since last year, while they were still filming season 2. When the show came out everything rumored was confirmed.

[quote]His only endgame is to see some teenage tits, it's embarrassing.

Levinson writes nudity, equal opportunity r4. God knows there has been many penises and just as much male nudity on screen as female.

He has many faults as a writer but trying to suggest it is just about being exploitative of woman is untrue.

Her post makes it sound like she was let go.

Respectfully disagree R12, it's way more gratuitous with the girls. He's got a Cassie obsession, the 23 year old actress even requested the nudity he wrote for her be cut it back. He thinks it's character development to show her drunk dancing in a bikini for 5 min, you know little about what she thinks but you see all about how hot she is.

How is it worse with the females? They’ve only shown tits a few times. Rewatch season 1. Jacob Elordi is beyond exploited in it, a male.

You didn't see that guy flop out his dick on the toilet bowel? There's been no split beaver stuff.

*bowl

So does her character die a grueling death?

Haven’t watched the show—

R16 that’s what I’m saying. Tons of dick. We haven’t seen a single vagina. At all.

Will she show up to the Emmy’s now? Doubtful. Season 2 is nominated

😢 I’m actually upset about this.

She was fired. It happens.

Sucks to be her. Meanwhile, I’m getting a huge pay raise

Levinson is one of the few writers/directors I consider to be actually homophobic. All of his gay or bisexual characters are psychopathic and depraved assholes.

Everyone on Euphoria is fucked up.

One day you’re in, the next day you’re out!

One day it's kicks, then it's kicks in the shins!

They fired McKay last season and I feel like that was barely discussed, at least Barbie is getting more of a reaction than he did.

R28 because he wasn’t fired. He was also in the season 2 premiere.

Didn't they say he bailed? I think his character was meant to have a gay/bi plotline.

Maybe they gave his storyline to Dominic Fike's character.

No r31. McKay is a main character in season 1 and in college, dating Cassie and best friend to Nate Jacobs. Elliott was introduced in the season 2 premiere, which also features McKay. McKay wasn’t having a bi storyline. Jesus. You all project that onto everyone. Newsflash, most people are hetero.

McKay’s storyline was going to be the same as Maddy, dealing with his ex who is now fucking his best friend.

Instead of it being a triangle it would be quadruple. The actor was unhappy because he felt he was not being given enough to do.

Honest question. Who is this fucking show for?

However, months ago it was said Algee Smith and Sam Levinson were talking about McKay coming back for season 3.

McKay didn't feel like a main character.

R33 you’ve asked this on other Euphoria threads. We’ve answered.

Tweet HBO and ask them. Maybe they will have an answer as to who their 17+ aimed, Emmy award winning series (that is their second highest rated series ever) is for.

McKay had an opening backstory segment in season one. Only the main characters receive those.

McKay was definitely a main character of Season 1, though not a successful one IMO. Did anyone miss him in season 2?

And Euphoria was HBO's highest rated show since Game of Thrones r33. It's a huge pop culture phenomenon.

R36 I haven’t asked about this show before.

Season 1 backstories

Episode 1- Rue

Episode 2- Nate

Episode 3- Kat

Episode 4- Jules

Episode 5- Maddy

Episode 6- McKay

Episode 7- Cassie (and to an extent Lexi).

Episode 8 no backstory

Season 2 only gave us two more backstories for two main characters because we already received the backstories of everyone else.

Episode 1- Fez and Ash

Episode 3- Cal Jacobs

Oh gosh darn it, we won't be able to see some fat mumbly emo girl mumble on TV.

I don't think the show will be at a loss if Kat was written out, she was dead weight. I don't like how the second season completely dropped her underage cam girl storyline with no resolution. They also should write off Maddy as she serves little purpose other than being a bitch. In fact I'm kinda disappointed by all the plot holes. Will the third season have Rue paying off the thousands she owes that drug lord woman? Will they give Jules more to do? I really hope Nate ends up dead or in jail.

That wasn’t a plot hole. It will be resolved in season 3.
