the bit in last week’s ep where Cobel is *finally* gonna explain Cold Harbor, then it cuts away for a while, then we see the same three people standing in silence as if they’ve been doing that for hours drove me nuts
They really need to nail this finale. I think Season 1 probably also had some meh-episodes we just forgot them all because its been so long/it ended on such a high note.
I was happy last week that the finale was meh and I can stop watching now and in 5 years when S3 drops I won't remember it. Then I found there's one more episode.
Milchick and Irv are so worth watching. Absolutely amazing in every scene. Everything else has gone so meh.
this most recent ep was fine but i got really annoyed when it seemed like we were finally gonna get an info dump from Cobel, then it cut away to a bunch of other shit, and now we have to wait for the info dump for no real reason
100%. I don’t even know what Cold Harbor could be at this point that would be satisfying? I’m sure it won’t be BAD but it’s wild how much uncertainty they’ve generated in me.
I think it'll end up a fairly weak "protect you from grief" angle. You can make your Innie endure your fears - like the dentist - or your chores, or giving birth, and they're testing if the Innie can endure the grief while the Outie is fine.
it’s emblematic of why i don’t love TV as a storytelling medium in general. we have no idea how many seasons there will be and i’m not sure the showrunners do either. it feels like there’s no plan so they’re just stalling for time
I’m convinced it’ll have to do with death and/or her and Mark’s hypothetical child. But then again I feel like any kind of speculation with this show sets up for further disappointment

Or something. I dunno. I was expecting more.
