High Society - Season 3

Postby Saralicity » Thu Jan 14, 2010 7:44 am

I have been madly in love with Felicity from the beginning. I know she is an evil little girl. She has even been written into unforgivable deeds by the time of this episode. Usually in the past, Felicity would be mean and evil, but then she would come up with an apology at the end of the show, and she could easily be forgiven. Right in the beginning of season 1, she was just plain cruel, don't remember what she did anymore, but it was just plain cruel. Some how when it came to her apology at the end of the program, all was OK and she was on my "A List" again. High Society took this concept to new heights. She performed selfish, selfish and more selfish deeds as she was putting on airs for the girls of the school. It was just like her character though to get dragged into the depths of want and desire. To get caught in it's traps. She was a victim of her own desire. Her apology at the end of the show was as good as any, and she is back on my "A List" again, as my heart goes aah. What do you think?

First of all, I like your screen name :D I decided if I was to make up a name of which characters I resembled I would be Olivjastacity 8)
I liked Felicity even when I didn't like her if that makes sense. She always felt like a real person. Once we see her vulnerabilities and weaknesses I think we are able to forgive her when she makes mistakes, hurts people and then genuinely apologizes. Her character changes in a very believable way, in stages over several years. High Society is the most dramatic one of the times she really messes up because of vanity/pride/insecurity. When the show started I was 12 and I had a very hard time in jr high/middle school with mean girls. Felicity is definitely a mean girl at times, but we really get a sense for why so many girls hurt one another in adolescence through her character. I think it actually made me feel better to see her struggle and begin to understand the mind of these girls. She has an extremely fragile ego, she seems so confident but really she is very insecure. In High Society she is very transparent, her facade totally comes down because she gets caught saying/doing something she regrets so much. Fortunately she really does feel very badly for what she does and appreciates her friends and family more afterward. It is a little hard to watch her hurt Gus and her parents but her remorse is very sincere. I liked that it showed just how nasty girls at those kinds of schools are, how they are pushed to be catty and mean in competition against each other, and how easy it was to get caught up in that world. I liked that Sara understood all that from experiencing it and could explain to Janet, Alec and Gus why Felicity said those things she didn't mean.

Felicity was arrogant, self-centered and selfish. She only apologized in "High Society" because she got caught in her lies. By the time the series ended, the writers had changed her into a completely different character. Of course, people change sometimes over time, but becoming a completely different character? Nope, didn't buy it anymore than I bought Rachel Lynde's complete change of personality after her stroke.

Felicity's treatment of Gus in the same episode was unforgivable. No matter how big a snob Felicity was, to treat Gus like that was disgusting. That poor Gus married her at the end of the series was sad. Can you imagine what kind of life he would have with her? Yikes! Run, Gus, run!

I own the whole series and have watched the first four seasons multiple times but seasons 5-7 stay on the shelf except for one or two episodes once in a long while. Once Felicity and Rachel ceased being Felicity and Rachel and those ridiculous "guest stars" began to do almost every episode, the series had run it course and was just coasting along.

Some people may disagree with my saying that Felicity is one of the most beloved characters on the show. But the truth is, SHE IS! She takes the form of a heroine in our hearts whether we like it or not. She doesn’t become the heroine because she marries the hero, or because she kicks McBarf out of town. She is a heroine because she grows as a person. She becomes an adult. She overcomes her flaws and shortcomings that were so evident in the earlier seasons. She follows her heart (even though it was a little flippant at times!) and stays true to herself. She is the perfect example of what a heroine should be.
