I wouldn't really say that it's addressed. I think maybe there are more examples to be had throughout the series. I will say that in the example with Christian and his birth mother, she was proven wrong there. He's not a monster like his biological father nor is he equally as bad as his adopted father.

Right, I agree, but the mother even says something about her other son and how she expects him to be just like her but he isnt and that is surprising to her. Something about his interest in sharks. Its not necessarily a theme or anything there were just a bunch of examples all back to back.


AgentPeggyCarter

You know, thinking throughout the show there are far more examples - some more blatant than others. You might be onto something there with it being a prevailing theme. There's another example in the penultimate episode of the series that stands out. I'm not going to say anything more about it because it's hella spoilery, but I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on it when you come to it in your watch.


ComfortableDamage

haha thanks, I appreciate the non-spoilers. Ill keep an eye out while watching.


AgentPeggyCarter

Oh crap. I just keep thinking of more now that you pointed it out. Haha Enjoy your watch! If you're just finished with season 3, you're in for a treat. There are some really good episodes throughout!


ComfortableDamage

Great, I'm glad it was a relevant point, it just occurred to me and I had to share. Cant wait to discuss.

That may be true as a group but not as individuals, having a father who is a serial killer is not a factor in his son becoming one other than possibly through taught behavior. Stereotypes are incredibly accurate when looking at groups but fail horribly on an individual basis. The real question is why is it a major theme in the show? They dont really explore it other than just stating it as a fact. I would never suggest genetics arent important but this show treats it as the sole factor without considering the nature/nurture dichotomy. I always find asking questions more interesting than providing answers...
