maybe one day Simon will actually show up. I felt it was odd how Victor went to NYC and acted like Simon was his BFF when they had never met

Does anyone think Rahim could carry spin off from Victor?

I don't think they will do a Rahim-centric spin-off; if indeed there is a spin-off, it's far more likely it will be female-led. After all, that's what happened in the book series (Simon followed by Leah). The Love, Victor season 2 finale suggested a potential lesbian pairing.
A spin-off could definitely help free up some airtime for the gay couple - for a series named after Victor, way too much time is focused on the growing cast of supporting characters. Do we really need 80% of airtime devoted to straight people and their romances on one of the few queer-led shows? I mean, this show might as well be renamed Love, the Salazars, Felix, Lake, Andrew and Mia. In the course of this season, we were introduced to Felix and Lake's mothers, Andrew had pretty much an entire episode dedicated to his character growth, Mia had an entire plot about her parents, stepmother, and baby half-sibling, Victor's dad and sister both got love interests, Andrew and Lake also got alternative love interests ... it would be fine if this was a full hour show but it's only 30 minutes and 10 episodes. Even soaps which are continuing dramas don't try to fit in more than 2-3 stories when they have just half an hour.

I haven't watched the full season yet, but judging by the general public response on social media, the supporting cast (especially Felix and Lake) gets a LOT of love, so I can see why they get so much airtime as they do. I do love most of the supporting characters, so it doesn't bother me so much, but I think the real problem is that the episodes are too short... I think 45 minutes would be perfect for the show!

I wish they would spend more time on Benji as a "individual" character and not only in context as Victor boyfriend

Benji needs more air time not much at all in Season 1 not much this time again we know more about Flix's life than Benji

Love, Victor showrunners explain the season 2 finale cliffhanger "It's our way of showing how far he's come in a year," Isaac Aptaker says of Victor's big romantic choice. ew.com/tv/love-victor-season-2-finale-spoilers/?utm_campaign=entertainmentweekly_entertainmentweekly&utm_content=manual&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_term=60c56d328d751200014cb3e0&fbclid=IwAR3e80xrTqLTQVEY_lzCQwvfGdEnzwkCXYwrCpivNRnUpwawFHsEgD5sOuIYou won't give me the full spoiler here but I've still got to ask: What can you tease about who's house Victor is at in that moment?APTAKER: There's very, very little to say there without really giving something away that we're not going to give away. But I will say our production team and our director, Jason Ensler, took great, great pains to make sure to obscure with how that ending was shot, which guy's house we are at. Because those are locations we visit throughout the season, and they really shot it in what I thought was an incredibly clever and careful way, so I don't think there's any way for viewers to figure out or get ahead of the story. BERGER: So whatever you think you've figured out, you haven't figured it out whose house it is. APTAKER: They storyboarded it, they pored over those images, and really made sure that it was pretty bulletproof in terms of figuring out where the hell he is. Do you actually know which house he's at? Like did you make that decision definitively, or did you leave it open-ended to see what the response to that twist will be to direct Victor's future based on that?APTAKER: No, we have a plan for the show. We know where he is and we're really optimistic and excited to get to tell the next chapter of Victor's story, which guy's house he's outside and what that means for his love life going forward.

Just finished ep. 8 (that one was intense! lol). I'll leave the last 2 for tomorrow
I was so into Victor + Benji as a couple. They had so many great/cute scenes in the first half of the season, the actors have such great chemistry and their intimate scenes felt very natural. It was a little sad to see how fast things have derailed between then on ep. 7 + 8
Ana Ortiz is so good in this! Her "I'm not giving up on God. I'm giving up on you" was a moment! The confrontation with Victor and Benji after she caught then having sex at the apartment was also pretty good for all three of then.
I'm actually surprised at how much I like the dad now... he was one the few characters I didn't care about last season, but he has won me over on season 2 (so far, at least lol)
I'm not really felling Pilar with Felix though. I Love Pilar, but I think the dynamics between Lake and Felix create a more fun relationship to watch (since they're so different). Also, I'm really loving Lake this season and Bebe goes from comedy to drama so well... very talented young girl.
I'm liking Rahim so far, but I feel like they introduced him too late into the season. I'm curious to see where the character goes on last 2 eps

It seems that Anthony Keyvan, the actor who plays Rahim, is getting a lot of hateful messages as a result of his story . Please learn to separate a fictional character from the actor who plays him at once. #LoveVictor

If he does not pick Benji I think we will lose Benji right now he's only around with Victor.
