You think an interpretation of a character that she just praised up the wazoo is judgmental? That seems like a bit of an overreaction. That said, Autumn never actually says that the liking of various men means one is damaged. One can have a variety of relationships and not be damaged. But one can also have a bunch of relationships and still be “damaged” which is Autumn’s interpretation partly in connection to Miss Fisher. She was also interpreting the reason as to why she might not be committed to Jack. Based on your comments, it sounds like she agrees with your “baggage” view. From what I’m understanding, it seems your reaction is a misreading of what she actually said. (Of course you’re free to have an opinion on Autumn’s opinion, but we all have different views and interpretations). Rather Autumn interprets Miss Fisher to be too damaged to settle down with someone she obviously loves like Jack. Again, that is ONE interpretation of the character, not a judgment. She IS portrayed as a damaged character with baggage, so it’s reasonable to assume as a viewer that Miss Fisher doesn’t commit fully to Jack because of her “baggage.” It’s not a judgment of the amount of men, rather it’s an interpretation of her baggage in relation to commitment to Jack. Seems like a fair interpretation. That said, no one owns one interpretation of the character as being “right” in my opinion. Of course Miss Fisher is a positive modern female. That wasn’t her point. Her point was that she partly attributes Miss Fisher’s lack of actual commitment to Jack as being about her baggage. Again, a completely fair interpretation of a character based on what is presented on the show. But also again, people will always have different interpretations of characters and we won’t always like someone else’s view especially when they differ from our own.

Yes, we love it! Glad to hear you like it as well. I wish S2 would air here sooner rather than later so I can buy it on DVD.
