I haven’t seen this third season yet but in the first two Applegate’s presentation of grief was already truly a standout for me, and I don’t easily connect with acting performances. The way she made you feel how heavy and, I dunno, saturated with it her character was, was so compelling. It was so believable, and it felt like I was actually witnessing a woman named Jen being devastated on camera, not the actress „performing grief” if that makes sense. And I think it’s because she found something very meaningful for herself in this role, so I’m really happy for her she got to see it through.
