Transparent (Amazon) General Discussion (Spoilers)

Transparent (Amazon) General Discussion (Spoilers)


Transparent Premiered on Amazon on February 06, 2014



Transparent centers on Mort (Jeffrey Tambor) who gathers his three adult kids — Ali (Gaby Hoffman), Sarah and Joshua — for a talk about the future, but everyone is shocked to learn that it’s not a financial inheritance at stake, but rather the complex legacy of a secret life as a transgender. Everyone’s relationship — to the world, themselves, and each other — through the lens of boundaries, intimacy, sex and gender — is about to change. Jill Soloway is writing and directing the pilot, using much of the same team — including cinematographer and editor — she worked with on her latest feature, indie Afternoon Delight, which premiered at Sundance and opens later this month. Filming on Transparent is slated to begin in September. Tambor, repped by Gersh and the Burstein recently reprises his Emmy-nominated role on Arrested Development for Netflix.

You can understand why Mort chickened out about telling his three adult kids at first about being a cross dresser but walking in dressed as a woman was amusing

1x02 The Letting Go

Not sure the exercise bench was designed for that but nether the less good exercise and Sarah should of put the seats back after making out with Tammy in the back of the car but you cant blame her for laughing after seeing her father in a dress

Ali exploring her feminine side was amusing as she liked to be ordered what to do but allowing and Josh going on a date with Rabbi Raquel was bound to happen sooner or later especially with his mother pushing them together.

Ed's funeral bringing them all back together was what you would expect and I'm guessing he died outside rather than them helping him pass away but the family letting out a few more secrets Just when you thought there were no more was surprising especially Josh having a grown up son
