In retrospect, Transparent feels like the story of a specific and irreplicable moment in the Pfefferman saga, a flux point that brought together gender, queerness, Judaism, filial bonds, and contemporary Los Angeles in one glorious confluence. Once that moment passed—as it inevitably would; how often do those subjects naturally converge?—the confluence splintered into half a dozen independently interesting, but not inherently connected, strands. And yet the show keeps going, trying its best to weave them back together.
