Just Bad
This series has been hit and miss with its episodes, but this particular episode is just bad. It would have honestly been nice to see them actually depict Oklahoma properly. It's quite clear that they made no effort to do at least a little research about the state. They could have done something so interesting that could have involved putting Suga Mama's family in some sort of significant setting in Oklahoma. Maybe had them be involved in some of the major events that took place in the state. For example, they could have had one or more of her relatives be nurses that were involved in attending to the injured in the Murrah Building bombing that happened in 1995, or had them be in the emergency response team to any one of the major tornadoes that took place in multiple areas of the state, like Moore, Norman, and Woodward. They could have been a family of major artists in the Paseo Arts District or heavily involved in the Arts College in Chickasha and any number of the Arts museums around Oklahoma City and the surrounding areas. Hell, if they really wanted to do something interesting and meaningful, they could have chosen to tackle the Tulsa Race Massacre and the effects it had on the city of Tulsa and the state as a whole at the time, or something involving Civil Rights activist Ada Lois Sipuel Fisher, the first black student admitted to the Oklahoma State College of Law. Oklahoma has over 100 years of history, including some truly fascinating Black History that they could have taken such an interesting look at and given a major perspective to. There are so many ways they could have taken it. This definitely was not it, though. What really gets me is that these are the same people who did an episode on Black History Month, and how important it is. They could have done something just as impactful and had one hell of a season finale.
Oklahoma may not be the most interesting state of choice, but one thing the people of the state are not is a bunch of inbred crazy people with no modern amenities. Even in the smallest towns, the people are still in possession of modern basics. If they really wanted to go with the rodeo route, they could have gone so many different directions with it. There are major rodeo competitions that do take place, so they could have tackled that by having Penny be involved in it and finding a new passion in rodeo competitions. This particular episode just took a complete 180 step backwards in all the worst ways. For all this push for being woke and modern, this episode is anything but. I'm honestly terrified to see how the second part of the finale goes. Even if it does go as I expect, I'm not excited to see how it winds up turning out.
