I did read your post, you said you skipped parts of season 2, so I stand by what I said.
You clearly hate the concept of them together, and it's fine. But since you hate the concept and haven't actually watched the whole story, I don't really know what you expect people to tell you. I feel like you just want people to agree with you, and that's why you're getting so defensive.
I understand what you're saying about them, but it's a surreal, over-the-top, insane story, so I'm fine with them being together when it wouldn't make sense in the real world, I don't try to apply real life values to fictional stories (especially over-the-top ones like TG), I just enjoy the ride because I think that Catherine and Peter together were hilarious.
Again, it's all right to just hate the idea of them being together and to stop watching if you don't like it, but I don't really know what you want people to tell you.

If you haven't watched the whole season, how do you know? You're of course entitled to your opinion, but you called it a teen drama plot ("This subplot reminded me of those YA stories in which the nice girl falls in love with the bad boy who mistreats or hurts but still falls in with him because she is some sort of Masochist") and you don't even know how they got there.
Maybe you would have the same opinion if you had watched it, but I don't really know what to tell you, you just hate the concept, but it's hard to have a conversation about it since you skipped all the parts other people liked.

You expect this show to portray a message of progressiveness, I think it's just a bit of fun nonsense, I don't care about its message like I don't care about historical accuracy.
> "You didn't watch the whole thing, so how can you criticize it."
I never said it. I explicitly said that it's okay to just hate the idea of them and to stop watching because of it, but it means you don't have the full knowledge of how the show handled their relationship. It's all right, but you are getting very defensive and there's no point in continuing this conversation.
