| Anne with an E | comment |
A Canadian series which first aired on television in March of 2017 and was distributed worldwide as a Netflix original two months later. Anne with an E (originally known simply as Anne in Canada) is based on the classic literary series Anne of Green Gables.Set around the turn of the century, the series stars Anne, a precocious orphan child under the guardianship of the tough but fair Marilla Cuthbert and Matthew Cuthbert, albeit by accident as they were looking for a farmhand boy. After an initially cool reception, the Cuthberts warm up to their new ward — but Anne will still face challenges as she settles in to the idyllic town of Avonlea.Starring Amybeth McNulty as Anne, Geraldine James as Marilla, R.H. Thomson as Matthew, Lucas Jade Zumann as Gilbert, and Dalila Bela as Diana. | |

Playing Sick | |
| Anne with an E / int_1320d787 | comment |
Playing Sick: Diana pretends her ankle is worse than it really is so she can stay at the Baynards'. After Anne accidentally drops an oil lamp on the essay she was writing while trying to save her fox, she pretends to be sick to avoid going to school with such a crazy story that no one would believe. Marilla has to come to school with her to explain to Miss Stact that she indeed do the assignment but it got accidentally burned. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Anne with an E / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Although the series is not without humour and light, Anne's unhappy childhood has dramatically affected her in this present portrayal, unlike the Pollyanna Anne is in the books. Throughout season 1 and 2 she suffers frequent flashbacks to the abuse she suffered under the Hammonds and in the orphanage. Anne also faces significant prejudice from the townsfolk and bullying from her school peers, due in part to her background as an orphan and her awkward social skills. Not to mention a house fire, the death of a parent, the prospect of losing your own property, child predators, criminals mugging a child, and the like. A far cry from the much lighter and carefree material from the purely slice-of-life, idyllic books, which, though not without their serious moments, were far more focused on relationships and lighthearted adventures. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Anne with an E / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: Most characters, excluding Anne, Diana and Gilbert, have their moments. Marilla doesn't just banish Anne from going to a picnic over the stolen brooch - she kicks the girl out of her house, making her go back to the orphanage by herself even though it's obviously unsafe (we are promptly shown Anne encountering an implied paedophile on that journey) and Matthew goes along with it. The drunkard Mr. Thomas is shown to be also physically abusive to Anne in her flashbacks. The girls in the orphanage are also shown to have actively been bullying Anne. Billy Andrews, Charlie Sloane and most of the boys besides Gilbert are misogynistic bullies to Anne. Josie Pye isn't the lone Alpha Bitch either, most of the girls are unpleasant as well when they first meet Anne, whereas the girls warmed to her much quicker in the book. Minnie May Barry, Mrs. Barry and most of Avonlea's inhabitants look down on Anne for being an orphan and openly trash talk her (which gives their kids an excuse to bully her at school since they're just repeating what they heard their parents say of her). Billy tries to rape Josie Pye in Season 3, episode 6 and, when she rejects him, spreads rumours that they did have sex and that she came on to him, basically making her damaged goods that no-one would ever marry which means she's basically stuck with him. He certainly doesn't in the books. Due to the addition of Sebastian's and the Mi'kmaq tribe storylines, and the expansion of Miss Stacy's personal life, Rachel Lynde is portrayed in a more negative light, being the main character who is most usually shown to be in the wrong in all three stories or at least with a more antiquated mindset bordering on Noble Bigot. | |

Alpha Bitch | |
| Anne with an E / int_22a27b19 | comment |
Alpha Bitch: Josie Pye styles herself as the leader of the girls, as the eldest and prettiest among them. She spends most of her debut in the third episode making snide comments about Anne before outright shunning her. This trope is deconstructed in season 3, when her reputation is "ruined" by rumours about her and Billy. None of the girls (besides Anne) particularly want to stand up for her because she's the Alpha Bitch | |

Chekhov's Gag: When Anne is accepted into the Cuthbert family, the trio drinks cordial to commemorate the occasion. Anne remarks that she could "get used to this". A few episodes later, she mistakes a bottle of wine for the cordial and shares it with Diana for their tea party. Hilarity Ensues, until Diana's mother finds out and they're kept from each other for a month. | |

Unknown Rival: Anne is this to Jerry at first, believing his hiring as a farmhand jeopardizes her chances of staying on at Green Gables, even though he has no idea why she's so short-tempered around him. Despite him being nothing but a Nice Guy, her enmity to him lasts an absurdly long time until his mugging at the hands of a couple of thugs softens her up. | |

Generation Xerox: When Marilla was young, she and John Blythe ended their relationship because she had to stay on Prince Edward Island to look after her family. She did not want to be the reason that John could not go travelling as he had always wanted. In season three, Marilla's adopted daughter Anne is in a similar situation, she doesn't want to be the reason that Gilbert does not go to Paris and the Sorbonne University. | |

Defrosting Ice Queen: Marilla Cuthbert is straight-laced and staunchly practical, but warming up to Anne slowly softens her into a caring motherly figure. She can even step up and be a Mama Bear when the situation demands it. And notably is one of the few staunch defenders of Miss Stacey in season 2, even going head to head against her long-time friend Rachel. | |

Blithe Spirit: Anne easily wins the hearts of the Cuthberts, Diana, and Gilbert with her free thinking, lust for learning and sense of imagination, but this trope is deconstructed with the rest of Avonlea; the whole town is so steeped in tradition that its people view Anne's freshness as an unwelcome intrusion in their quiet lives. | |

A Friend in Need: The season 1 finale showcases this, fitting with the Christmas theme. Anne, the Cuthberts, and Jerry try to raise money to prevent the bank from taking Green Gables by selling livestock and heirlooms, but can't scrape up enough until the neighbours pitch in. Marilla is against the very idea from the start, but Anne finally shuts down her pride by telling her there is a difference between taking charity and accepting help from loved ones. | |

Love Confession | |
| Anne with an E / int_4e4f42be | comment |
In "The Better Feeling of My Heart" Gilbert writes a Love Confession to Anne before leaving for Toronto. Anne rips it up without reading it. She believes that Gilbert read her letter and didn't bother to respond in person. Only after ripping up does Anne realise she should have read it first. When she arranges the fragments left she mistakenly reads it as a letter declaring his engagement to Winnifred. | |

Trauma Button: There seem to be a handful of things that cause Anne to slip into unhappy remembrances of her childhood. Hearing babies cry causes her to remember the cruel Mrs. Hammond and her young children, and an offhand comment from Marilla makes her think of the day she was returned to the orphanage. | |

Playing a Tree: Anne is cast as a tree in the pantomime in the Christmas Episode of season two. The trope is flipped on it's head since normally playing a tree is a terrible filler part for when there's not enough roles for every kid, but Nature Lover Anne she sees it as the role of a lifetime: | |

Sheltered Aristocrat: While a girl from a small town's wealthy family instead of an aristocrat, this describes how Diana starts out. She's certainly sheltered, as her mother keeps her away from the slightest impropriety, but learns through befriending Anne how much grander life can be. Diana is frustrated with her sheltered-ness in "Memory Has as Many Moods as The Temper," after learning she never realized her aunt was in a relationship with another woman and she has no aspirations aside from becoming the respectable lady and housewife her mother is raising her to be. | |

Big Damn Kiss: In the season 3 finale, Anne and Gilbert finally get together after an entire season of miscommunication. When they both find out how the other feels and that they've actually loved each other all along, Anne and Gilbert literally run after each other. (Him ditching a train ride to see her and her getting ready to take a train ride to see him.) Once they find and see each other, they both walk up to each other without saying a single word. After simply staring at each other, they share a long awaited passionate kiss. | |

Henpecked Husband: At first glance, Rachel Lynde's husband, Thomas, seems to be in this situation since he is quieter and more mild-mannered than his wife and gets regularly bossed about by her, but he is content not to think for himself and let Rachel handle things, so they're perfectly matched. It goes to show that they're the only couple openly showing affection for each other, and during Prissy's wedding, he even mentions that at their own wedding he rushed through his vows as fast humanly possible because he couldn't wait to be alone with her on their honeymoon. | |

Adaptational Angst Upgrade: Essentially, if there is potential for some more drama than in the original material, it will come to fruition.

Gilbert, whose father dies during the series and faces questions about what he wants to do in life as a result. The Cuthberts, due to their dead brother, their financial problems, and Matthew's attempted suicide near the end of season 1. | |

Due to the addition of Sebastian's and the Mi'kmaq tribe storylines, and the expansion of Miss Stacy's personal life, Rachel Lynde is portrayed in a more negative light, being the main character who is most usually shown to be in the wrong in all three stories or at least with a more antiquated mindset bordering on Noble Bigot. | |

Gilbert has transparent feelings for Anne. She shares the attraction but vehemently denies it, partially because he called her "Carrots", and partially because Ruby, her classmate and Diana's friend, has a huge crush on him and Anne does not want to risk being ostracized as a man-stealer despite the fact that he shows no interest in Ruby. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech | |
| Anne with an E / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: An iconic moment in the show is Diana calling out Gilbert for badly mishandling his feelings for Anne in the season 3 finale. Diana is a Proper Lady most of the time and yet loudly chews out Gilbert on a train in public for (unintentionally) hurting her best friend. She calls him out on obviously being love with Anne for years, never coming forward with his feelings and yet begins secretly courting a higher class girl and showing up with said girl at the county fair in front of Anne. Then she yells at him for springing a sudden love confession on Anne after their post-exam partying and wanting her to make a life-changing answer in mere seconds. Gilbert can only make confused facial expressions as Diana scolds him for his foolish mistakes. | |

Boarding School of Horrors: Ka'Kwet's entire arc in season 3. She's a young Indigenous girl whose parents send her to a residential school believing she will be cared for and educated. Instead, the nuns running the school are horribly abusive and try to indoctrinate her into European culture. Ka'Kwet manages to escape, however she is left deeply emotionally traumatized by the experience. Before long, officials from the school hunt her down and rip her away from her parents. Anne and Matthew try to help her parents get her back, but they are unsuccessful. What makes it worse is that incidents like this really did happen. | |

Adaptational Diversity: This adaptation adds black and indigenous characters and a classmate of Anne's is gay. Aunt Josephine also had a female partner in this adaptation. They are presented with Deliberate Values Dissonance however, showcasing the discrimination and ostracism all three minorities faced at the time. Even main characters are openly racist towards the indigenous and black characters while Anne's homosexual friend faces physical abuse and bullying from his peers and their teacher. | |

This backfires for Marilla, as the priest is rather old fashioned and expresses the view that Anne ought to stay home instead, learning the skills she'll need as a wife instead of reading and doing arithmetic. (In a roundabout way this prompts Anne to go back to school, as she has no desire to become someone's little wife.) Billy also says this word-for-word to Ruby and Anne in the fourth episode. Prissy Andrews is discontent with being reduced to a pretty face by her mother when she wants higher education to become a teacher. Mr. Phillips forbidding her from this dream to be his wife is the final nail in their nuptials' coffin. | |

Continuity Nod | |
| Anne with an E / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: During season 3, Anne summons the other girls to meet "by the lake of shimmering waters". This is a nod to the very first episode when she first arrived at Avonlea and she decided to rename Barry's pond as such. | |

Marilla doesn't just banish Anne from going to a picnic over the stolen brooch - she kicks the girl out of her house, making her go back to the orphanage by herself even though it's obviously unsafe (we are promptly shown Anne encountering an implied paedophile on that journey) and Matthew goes along with it. | |

Imagine Spot: Prone to flights of fancy, Anne can get lost in her daydreams and distracted from the world around her. It seems to have been a coping mechanism for her while in the orphanage and working as a servant for various foster families but oftentimes gets her into trouble as she's distracted and often inadvertently causes accidents. | |

| Anne with an E / int_a939d96a | comment |
Adults Are Useless: While Anne's educated rescue of a child from a common childhood ailment casts doubt upon the adults, the crowning moment is when she runs into a burning building to close the doors and windows, allowing the fire to die out. Even in the 1890s, this was a known firefighting technique. | |

Setting Update | |
| Anne with an E / int_af4d6174 | comment |
Setting Update: While relatively minor, the initial setting seems to be bumped up two decades to the mid 1890s. (first novel was set in the 1870s) This is made clear in episode 6, where a fresh tombstone places that episode in 1896. | |

Love Triangle: Gilbert has transparent feelings for Anne. She shares the attraction but vehemently denies it, partially because he called her "Carrots", and partially because Ruby, her classmate and Diana's friend, has a huge crush on him and Anne does not want to risk being ostracized as a man-stealer despite the fact that he shows no interest in Ruby. Season 3 has a more conventional one between Gilbert, Anne and Winnifred Rose. | |

Orphanage of Fear: Anne's remembrances of the orphanage are not happy ones — older girls tormented her verbally and physically, and Anne is too afraid of the place to return after Marilla throws her out. During season 3 she actually visits the orphanage and we can see for ourselves the horrible situation in which children are brought in. Anne was a baby so she had no memory of it, but we're shown a father dropping off two very young children and asking the matron to tell them he died so they won't come looking for him later. Understandably Anne is quite shaken by the scene, being barely able to talk. | |

I Never Got Any Letters | |
| Anne with an E / int_ea51fa45 | comment |
I Never Got Any Letters: Gilbert never even finds Anne's Love Confession letter in "A Dense and Frightful Darkness". In "The Better Feeling of My Heart" Gilbert writes a Love Confession to Anne before leaving for Toronto. Anne rips it up without reading it. She believes that Gilbert read her letter and didn't bother to respond in person. Only after ripping up does Anne realise she should have read it first. When she arranges the fragments left she mistakenly reads it as a letter declaring his engagement to Winnifred. | |

Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness | |
| Anne with an E / int_f1d3f0c9 | comment |
Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness: Anne loves to read and has an excellent memory for the large words she encounters ("twenty-five cent words," as Diana calls them). Anne also has a penchant for using those big words in casual conversation and when introducing herself to new people. | |

Cope by Pretending | |
| Anne with an E / int_f7512035 | comment |
Cope by Pretending: Anne copes with her loneliness by speaking to her reflection in a mirror as though it's a friend and creating stories about a poised and brave "Princess Cordelia", a princess whose adventures often mirror Anne's current situation. | |

The Power of Friendship | |
| Anne with an E / int_faece9aa | comment |
The Power of Friendship: A major theme in the show is the friendship various characters form with each other, even despite their differences (be it through class, race or gender). Anne and Diana's friendship is a major recurring friendship on the show, becoming close like dear sisters who stick together throughout thick and thin. | |

Innocently Insensitive | |
| Anne with an E / int_ff17ccf1 | comment |
Innocently Insensitive: Diana is a sweet girl and a loyal friend to Anne, but as a result of being sheltered by her proper mother, she doesn't always notice when something she finds normal is making Anne uncomfortable. Anne trying to comfort Gilbert after the death of the latter's father backfires massively when she's not able to understand his feelings at first since she has been an orphan her entire life and cannot empathize with losing a parent. | |
