And I'm thinking it's because Elisheva was so popular, they want to bring her back. Now that he's been widowed as well, the match is more suitable.

I feel like the producers don't want to think of new challenges for Kiva so they killed off Libby so he can be back in the same boat. How obnoxious Mad Mad

I think they were smart. Much of the show centered on Kiva's romantic tensions with women. If he were happily married, the tension would no longer be there.

A few comments on this season:

I do NOT like Libby's wig, (nor Ruchami's, nor Menucha's, but Libby's is worse.)
It is very strange looking. No Yerushalmi women wear a band like that, with tons of wig hair sticking out in the front. It's just not done well, looks like a costume. Gitty's wig is perfect, and Menucha's wig in previous seasons was great as well.


Does anyone remember the first time that Shulem mentioned Yissachar's broken shidduch? I seem to remember him telling Kive that the girl was now married, and a mother and grandmother.....which Nechama does not seem to be.

Also, those who were commenting on the boy with the smartphone/camera, they needed that so that there was a video of Shulem hitting and he could be threatened with the police. I guess they could have used a regular camera though.

Why not? She appears to be wearing a sheitel.

She's definitely wearing a sheitel!

Ruchami actually looks like she could be Gitti's daughter in her sheitel.

Libi doesn't always wear that band it seems based on the paintings and taxi drive. I think it's more for style.

Well, I know zero about wigs of any sort but perhaps Libby's wig stands out b/c she is from chutz la'aretz, from Belgium, no? Maybe that is what the women wear there?

You're right. So her first husband died or she got divorced?
Idk, its just seemed to me that she was an old bachelor like him, pluse the way she was talking all romantic about him...."yisachar sheli mi'paam..."

Ruchami's wig looked like it did in that other horrible movie she was in, Unorthodox, where none of the clothing was done well. I dunno, she just looks off. Her wig is shorter than her moms, don't think that is regular.

Same with Libby, she just looks off. Not only the band. The wig itself also. It's just sits strangely on her. Her hair in the other seasons was so good. Idk, maybe I'm just being judgmental.

The men look amazing, though.

Also, is Libby the same actor (Hadas Yaron?) She looks different but she probably just got older.

I was also wondering why does she looks so different? maybe because she is a ghost after all!

It's definitely her, but she's older and now it's wearing a sheitel!

The lack of attention to collarbones in "charedi" portrayals bother me. Shira's shirt is too low down by the kosel scene.

I. Am. Sobbing.
So happy I avoided this thread before I had a chance to watch the whole episode.
I just wanted Akiva and Libby to be happy, but you're right, the show needs Akiva's turmoil.
I LOOOOOVE Hadas Yaron. I hope there will be more flashbacks all season.

I guess that the reason why Libby died is mainly because actress Hadas does not want to act anymore on these episodes, she has mentioned in the past in an interview, that acting as a religious woman was making her look religous in her society, I guess this is the best way that she got out of this series

Maybe she is a different type of charedi. It was already said she likes her 'fish spicier', a euphemism for non-Ashkenazi.

Except that there are probably going to be more flashbacks. We still don't know how she died. Also, what kind of show would it be if we just watched them live their happily ever after for the rest of time.

She's still from meah shearim supposedly. Everything else is very tzanuah. Just that aspect. And it happens in many shows. Anyone else watched bat hashoter for example? Chani there has shirts that are too loose at the neckline and honestly too thin and you can see her undergarments. She's from bnei brak and the daughter of a rosh yeshiva! Has her hair perfect for that character, but shirts constantly are messed up in these shows.

What makes you think she's from meah shearim?
I highly doubt it. I actually think the shirt thing you mention is done on purpose. All the other women are properly covered/ dressed. Shira is probably from a more "with it" crowd

Who else thought that Yossele was going to find Shira in the Ramot forest?
I thought for sure that's why they had her specifically mention that place. I think that would have made more sense than bumping into her at the Kotel.

It was in a promo piece I think.
No, she's supposed to be equally the same level with the only divisive factor being her ethnicity. That's the point, that there's no reason otherwise to call off the shidduch... If she was more modern, it would not be matim.

She's dressed perfectly other than the looseness which I see all over the place in people trying to dress charedi.
It's not noticeable unless you're attune to these nuances. The average viewer wouldn't figure it out so I don't think they're trying to give that message.
