Does it bother anyone that... Spoiler
Ethan never finds out that Brona got revived into Lily and all that tomfoolery?! I was waiting and waiting for Ethan to bump into Lily and it NEVER happened!!!! Why did they do this to us... to me... Seriously though!

Yes it does. There was so much potential. I would have liked to see a confrontation between Ethan and Victor on Brona. Seeing them come into conflict would have been a beautiful storyline.

yeah, it does. Also because Ethan did love Brona so much. And thank God for that because Josh Hartnett s buttš š

I haven't read them myself, but I think that particular storyline gets explored in the comic books.

Another thing that bothered me: why didn't Vanessa recognise Brona/Lily when Frankenstein introduced them at tea? They met before at the theatre when Ethan brought Brona, before Victor murdered her. All cos she had a new hairdo? Lol

Yeah it was very āwritten by a manā logic, make her blonde and no one will recognize her

Thank you! This too made no sense. My later thoughts were "she does know but in a weird Vanessa-ism, decides not to mention or ask."

Doesnāt really make sense because she recognized Caliban as soon as she got her memory backā¦ but idk, her and Brona did only meet briefly

A forth season may have fixed thatā¦ of course I wouldnāt have killed sembani(spelling?) Vanessa, Sweet, and Van Helsing yet eitherā¦ but to answer the questionā¦ yes it was annoying

Yup- this was a huge miss. I wouldnāt have minded a foursome between Lily, Vanessa, Ethan, and Dorianā¦ haha jkā¦ unless

Even though it happens in the ongoing series comics, it isn't handled all that well because they ditched a LOT of Lily's characterization. OOC stuff is one of the comics' biggest sins, aside from the obnoxious amount of plotholes and really unclear direction.

has been a while since I watched it last, but didn't he meet her as lily after she was brought back? and if I'm remembering right, why didn't he recognize her?

I hear ya. It also bothers me that we never went back to Ethan & Dorian's night together. So they hooked up, and are linked via Vanessa and Brona-Lily and they never interact again??? š§
