XO Kitty excites fans

After eager anticipation, the second season of “XO Kitty” has finally come to Netflix. It’s been a full two years since the last season leaving many to speculate what would happen after the first season finale. Season two picks up right where the prior season left off, starting at the second semester of Kitty’s senior year.

This season presents new characters and conflicts that continue to develop throughout the season. One of the new characters is Stella, who creates conflict between Kitty and all of her friends. She’s terribly annoying, meaning her actor, Audrey Huynh, did a fantastic job as the character. 

“Kitty’s teeth look terrible this season, her old ones looked way better, these ones are just too white and don’t look good but she’s still a baddie,” said senior Jayden Diep. 

Alongside new characters, Kitty, played by Anna Cathcart, had some work done to “fix” her teeth. As a child she never developed some of her teeth, leading her teeth to develop without some of her front teeth. She decided to get veneers which many fans noticed. 

There are also a number of new love interests, creating a number of problems throughout the season. Many of the situations felt too unrealistic to really be true which made it harder to immerse myself in the show. I know many of the plots were to be comedic or not supposed to be entirely realistic, but some parts were just dragged on too much. 

“I was able to really appreciate the representation of the lgbtq community within the season, I’m glad characters within the community got their own plot,” exclaimed senior Avi Rajbhandary. 

Within the new season was also brought side plots for characters like Q, Jin, and Yuri who are within the community and able to represent the struggles of being in a school system that doesn’t acknowledge them.

The biggest problem with the second season is that there is so much anticipation built up within the season just to end on a cliffhanger, similarly to season one. Some issues were resolved with non major characters but nothing happened with the main character Kitty, leaving many viewers disappointed. 

“By the time the next season comes out I doubt anybody is still going to care, it already took too long for this season to come out and it was totally buns,” cried senior Jillian Epitacio.

The cliff hanger and long waiting time for a poor production turned some against the show like Epitacio, but I still think the season had some good plot points that will help build into the next season. 

“Yeah the season was okay I guess, Kitty’s teeth were totally banging though,” uttered senior Jaden Lau.
