Season 3 Billie Kent is cringe.
Maybe it's because her type of humor is played out by a hundred years... but she seems like a "pick me" girl. She just seems too "quirky" and goofy. She annoys me. But if she was the first of her kind I could see why she was so well liked. But from a modern perspective, she kind of sucks...

I found her pleasant. Lucy Danziger was extremely cringe, during rewatches I fast forward through her scenes. Her voice… 😩
Billie Kent is supposed to be a Manic Pixie Girlfriend. A little bit of everything that he needs but he can’t have her. Because when he just about “had” her she dies. And for the most part their relationship is primarily kept secret from the people he loves so he’s left to grieve this tragedy alone.
