    Donna’s one of my favorite portrayals of a strong woman on television. So many strong women characters-especially on more action-heavy shows like this-feel written by and for men. Donna’s complex, motherly, fierce, at her wit’s end while somehow managing to just keep it together. So many kudos to the writers and Elizabeth Saunders’ brilliant portrayal.

      Even though strong woman characters written for women in general. when it's written by men - they are more realistic (like Sarah Cornor in Terminatior ) but when it's written by activists or feminists they make Mary Sue charectors like Captain Marvel. So don't blame it on men

    Oh God, I hope not. That would be massively disappointing. Her interaction with Ethan about bravery was so special. & I love how much Donna has cared for Fatima & the people at Colony House, even if she has butted heads with Boyd every now & then. She's tough, headstrong, sometimes stubborn, but so far she has seemed to be trying to do her best for the town. It'd feel like lazy writing if they took a character who frequently disagreed with our hero (Boyd) & slapped 'bad guy' on her. Crossing my fingers for Donna.

    i always see her as someone who is aggressive in mothering those around her, not by showering them by affection but bulldozing her way to stop them from putting themselves in danger. she wraps you in her protection and that may come at the expense of her being seen as controlling. i think her intentions are well because her default mode is: protect and survive. that's it.

    • @petraleopold2713
      @petraleopold2713 Месяц назад +2

      agree w this, i think ppl mistake her roughness and boldness and see that as something suspicious, only sus thing she did was tellin Jim to keep quiet about voice on radio but again i can understand that too, she doesn't want ppl to panic and to be afraid (although thats pretty hard in their circumstances) but she is deff good leader

    • @herexcellencyru

      i feel like she doesn't want to leave because either because her sister is dead she doesn't have a home to go to anymore or she knows she's changed too much and isnt too upset if she's stuck

  • @derekhiemforth
    @derekhiemforth Месяц назад +25

    In a show like this, I think we have to assume that *_everyone_* is hiding something, so no one is ever 100% above suspicion. Having said that, I don't think Donna is that much more suspicious than anyone else.
    I've always taken her lack of support for escape attempts as being rooted in the pain of having seen too many attempts fail and too many friends die. If you try to live day by day and you have a bad day, well, tomorrow's another day and hopefully it will be better. But if you try to survive on hope for the future, then when something happens to shatter that hope, it's all the more devastating. I think Donna would just rather "be" than "hope."

    Interesting topic! I did see a lot of theories about Donna but I must admit that none of them was convincing to me. Me personaly, I see Donna as a no bs tough lady who after three years just lost enthusiasm for trying. And I love the creativity behind some theories and attention to detail but they all seem a bit circumstential. There is just too much of ifs and maybes, there is very little there. That being said I would not be disappointed if a twist happens in season three and we see she had a hidden agenda, but for now...I am not convinced.

  • @cal4229
    @cal4229 Месяц назад +2

    Maybe Donna killed her sister not the monsters, or they both killed someone else and was on the run. And that’s why she doesn’t want to leave.

    Absolutely not. People are way off base with the Donna is Evil theory. Many people don't like the idea of a strong female character who is also a good person.

    Victor is the Sinner, "dont ask questions" and "this is my home" without an actual background instead of Donna's frabrication.
    Atleast he has his own goals, different from team home or escape.
    I think that they're working together.

    Excellent analysis! I agree that a mole wouldn’t be necessary; however, it would be devastating to the townspeople. The town seems to feed off fear, and if they find out that not everyone is who they claim to be, then who can they trust? Thus, more chaos and terror ensue. I think some people of the town, like Donna, might be day walking monsters. Imagine finding out that the person you’ve grown to love and trust was a monster with evil intentions the entire time? Now that would be terrifying!!

  • @2CSST2

    The idea that convinces me the "mole" could be true is simply that it's just another way for it to f--k with people. It seems to constantly come up with creepier stuff for them to deal with, it would make sense that at some point that becomes having to deal with even an intimate friendly relationship being a lie. So not really a "mole" per say, that does seem too weak a means for From Ville to exert its power and manipulate, but more like another deeper form of bait-and-switch. The typical monsters they act nice only to show their true form when they got you, but maybe some monsters are much deeper into that game of acting nice, even making their way into you giving them your deepest trust, only to f--k you up in the end.

  • @AlB1974
    @AlB1974 20 дней назад

    It's very interesting that the name Donna translates to "Lady of the House" and she's the BOSS at Colony House.
    But Donna is also a derivative of the name "Madonna" which also applies to "The Blessed Virgin Mary" mother of Jesus Christ and people looking up towards Donna as a "Mother" figure.
    Don't forget about Fr. Kathari mentioning about NO BIBLES in town and Book 74 and the Bible still being written according to Fr. K.
    But also, a lot of the characters names have Religious meanings and other aspects of rituals and magic.

  • @sinisterai

    I suspect that Donna is the mother/keeper of the kid in white, who keeps people there to appease his "Anthony Freemont" nature and stopping a larger carnage in the 'real' world lol

    They seem to have too much food and stuff, like there's a Walmart nearby..
    I think people just wanna hate on Donna cuz they have mother issues.
    If she were a man, nobody would whine

      The popularity of this theory is such that I couldn't ignore it. Besides, I like picking these things apart to see if there is anything there. All it took was for "Randall" (a character we have no reason to trust) to make a baseless claim and it's off to the races lol. I certainly think there is more to her story, (origin) but the idea that she's up to no good seems like a reach. She's pulled more asses out of the fire than anyone so far.

    I put my money on the dog saving everyone 👍 I reckon the dog isn't from the town/woods, I think he belongs to the hikers that find Tabitha at the end of season 2, they take regular hikes through the same woods and the dog hops in and out through a tree or other entry/exit. He will show the way! 😂

    I think she does what needs to be done and that can come off as evil to some people who arent strong enough to do the hard things that need to be done, even if it's not the right thing.
    That said, I also think she's the mole, lol. Why? Mainly because I don't believe she hid from the creatures in the forest all night, and made it.
