Older women are hot. Power is hot. And “Hacks,” the acclaimed Max series that airs its season three finale Thursday, is extraordinary because it mines these lesbian truisms in a nuanced portrayal of intergenerational relationships. Often overlooked in popular culture, intergenerational relationships between women are not necessarily sexual but, as we see with the show’s main characters Deborah Vance and Ava Daniels , they can be profoundly life-changing.
“You know, your whole life, you say, ‘One day,’” Deborah tells Ava during a memorable episode in season three. '‘One day, I’ll do this. One day, I’ll accomplish that.’ And the magic of ‘one day’ is that it’s all ahead of you. But for me, ‘one day’ is now. Anything I want to do, I have to do now, or else I’ll never do it.” Yet, in perhaps a nod to the commonality and celebrity of intergenerational lesbian relationships, Ava is more than a little bit in love with Deborah.
