I feel like I am trying so hard to understand what’s going on/looking for secrets that I don’t fully get to just enjoy the episodes haha. It looked like future Syd had black gunk on her hand, a dillusion?
I like that the overall plot seems pretty simple (Find Farouk's body before he does -> Help Farouk find his body because he can help prevent an even worse future), but the show is stretched out in such an interesting way. I can enjoy the all the weirdness without worrying about getting lost trying to follow the story, at least for now. Although, I'm probably missing clues here and there if the show is dropping them.
What the fucking fuck is going on. I don't know if I can stick with this - while the plot does seem relatively simple - I get so fucking lost getting there.
it's not that complicated and it's pretty artfully done. also, it's the second episode lol. i would have to assume any answers you might have will get answered as the season progresses, like they were in season one.
You kinda just need to go along for the ride and just take things as is - very different viewing experience than practically any other show out rn
That was an oddly straight forward episode. Still really dug it. Needs more Aubrey Plaza though. She went from such a huge presence to totally insignificant and it's a bummer
Oh yikes the ratings this season are abysmal. Hopefully critical acclaim is enough for FX to keep it going.
The ratings have always been awful. FX wouldn’t burn Hawley though, they would at least offer him a final season to tie things up. I wouldn’t be surprised if the third is the last though. That could be a good thing
The ratings have always been awful but they’re getting awful-er. The latest episode got almost half of the ratings of the lowest-rated episode from the first season. And the show doesn’t look cheap to make. Definitely agree about season 3 tho.
it's just not accessible to people jumping in so the ratings look worse bc they're not grabbing anyone along the way this isn't to say it's not doing bad just that it's not in a great position to start with
I understand giving up on the show, every time I watch I'm like do I like this or do I hate this what is going on why am I watch it, it's beautiful obviously but it's not an easy show to watch
yeah, this show is a fucking spectacle week in and week out. i've said this many times before but this show fills my hannibal void
This show is just a wonder in every respect. The way the script is written, the direction, the cinematography, the set design...it’s an absolute masterclass in experimentation.
This season has gone so far into the bizarre, it's great. O I love going into everyone's mind mazes, Syd is gonna be crazy
Think that one was a bit too self-indulgent for me. Loved that they did the opening title stuff at the very end tho lol.
