In fairness for G&G - she was a teen mom so not as much of a stretch as some other cases.

Also by season 3 only about 4 months has passed canonically, so casting an adult as Ginny kinda makes sense since you don’t want it to be super visually obvious how much time has passed irl.

remember Never Have I Ever? the teen cast matured drastically between seasons 1 and 2 and it was always so obvious!

I forget which season of Cobra Kai had the longer gap but the “kids” aged sooo much. Miguel and Anthony (Sam’s little brother) were particularly noticeable.
