    The 2025 TV schedule has been fast to reward followers of small city drama, as Candy Magnolias returned in early February for these with a Netflix subscription. Whereas I had a number of issues I needed from Season 4 of the Serenity, South Carolina-set romance (after a sorta gradual begin it did ship, particularly with main surprises for Maddie), I wasn’t anticipating to essentially get one thing out of the season that made me really feel good as a Black lady who already beloved the present. Let’s check out how Candy Magnolias Season 4 leveled up when it got here to its illustration of Black girls.

    Peggy And Helen Had been All the time Essential To Serenity, However They Have Means Extra Accountability In Season 4

    One of many issues that I already beloved about Candy Magnolias was that there was a great illustration of a reasonably vast cross-section of ethnicities/races/sexual preferences throughout the board. We had Trotter and his husband Ashley for LGBTQ+ rep (with Isaac’s sexuality being confirmed in Season 4), and quite a few characters who weren’t white however had been necessary to each the drama and the city as a complete.

    These embody Helen, after all, as one of many Magnolias and the primary authorized ace on the town, and in addition Peggy, who started the present as one of many city’s native newspaper reporters who was in everybody’s enterprise, for higher or worse. Season 3 noticed the Magnolias notice how corrupt the mayor was, and assist get him out of workplace. Helen then grew to become marketing campaign supervisor for Peggy, with the latter being put in as mayor by Season 4 and convincing a reluctant Helen to assist her overhaul the city’s fucked up funds as interim city supervisor. And, as we noticed, they’d loads of labor to do.

    It is Great To See Black Ladies Being Trusted For Their Political And Enterprise Savvy On A Massive Scale

    Mainly, this meant that two Black girls had been entrusted with the way forward for the city, and after generations of getting one corrupt, white household stuffed with shitbirds in cost and doing the whole lot from giving sweetheart offers to their buddies to outright stealing city funds. Peggy and Helen got the reins and trusted for his or her political and enterprise savvy on an enormous scale, when the city may have balked at Peggy as mayor just because she had no background in politics.

    I Additionally Cherished Seeing How The One-Time Frenemies Absolutely Bonded AND Helped One other Black Girl Rise In Serenity’s Ranks

    In case you’ll recall, Peggy and Helen had been clearly not buddies in Season 1. In actual fact, it wasn’t till Helen helped Isaac discover his delivery mom, who turned out to be Peggy (she’d had him in secret in highschool), within the second season that the one-time light frenemies began to bond. Properly, having to deal with making funds cuts and discovering all the corruption the earlier mayor left behind actually noticed the 2 turn into precise buddies. I really like Black girls being buddies and totally supporting each other!

    Additionally, whereas Henrietta has been round for the reason that first season because the assistant to that lengthy line of Lewis mayors who had been slowly working the city into the bottom, Season 4 noticed the older Black lady (who admitted to being handled like “wallpaper” by these mayors) actually step up. However, that was as a result of Peggy and Helen gave her an alternative to step up, and he or she did such a great job being “regular, insightful and even progressive,” as Peggy put it, that she and Helen determined to make Henrietta the brand new everlasting city supervisor. I LOVE Black girls serving to different Black girls rise within the ranks!!

    Not For Nothing, However Together with Pastor June, There Are Now 4 Black Ladies Serving to To Information A Entire City

    For the reason that first season, Pastor June has been the religious chief of alternative for a lot of Serenity. When Dana Sue and Ronnie obtained again collectively, they went to her for relationship counseling. When Maddie was having points with Cal, she obtained nearer to June they usually began hanging out as buddies.

    Now, with June nonetheless necessary to Serenity, Peggy as mayor, Henrietta as city supervisor and Helen because the all the time good and superb Helen…there’s a complete (fictional…sigh) city that’s trusted the center of its management to 4 Black girls and it actually felt good for us to be seen in these positions of energy, kicking ass, taking names and doing all of it whereas trying fabulous!

    We don’t know but if Candy Magnolias will return for Season 5, however you possibly can guess I’ll be watching if it does!
