I both rewatched the first season and watched the whole second season over the last week or so and holy shit, this show is just an absolute masterclass in filmmaking. In terms of acting, cinematography and direction, it's probably one of the most effective and beautiful shows I've ever seen. I'm also so happy that Adam Scott got something like this, the dry humor that he specializes in infused with the best dramatic acting of his career is so effective here. Britt Lower is also incredible and Mr. Milchik is one of the best TV villains in years I definitely agree that some of the storytelling decisions in S2 were a tiny bit sloppy but I don't care because this show is so fucking good. I'm not gonna go all the way back in the discussion thread lol but the scene in the premiere of Mark running through the halls was absolutely amazing, the snow episode was one of the most gripping episodes of TV I've ever seen and the finale was just incredible. Everyone is justifiably talking about the amazing final sequence but the scene with innie and outtie Mark talking with the camcorder is one of the most insanely clever ideas I've seen in a long time. I cannot WAIT to see where this goes. I definitely agree that it probably shouldn't go more than one or MAYBE two more seasons though
first time watcher here. been going through s1. holy fuck at the wife reveal at the end of ep7. that and irv saying ;'lets burn this place to the ground" gave me chills. then the subsequent wellness session with mark at the beginning of e8 is a fucking gut punch. probably will finish s1 today. great show!
One of my friends who always kills it at giving gifts got me this for my birthday. She’s the one who got me into the show and when S2 was airing we would text back and forth with our thoughts and theories
aside from physical media (Blu-ray/DVD of S1, vinyl) and stuff given out/sold at conventions and in PR packages, i think the only official "merch" out there is this Youtooz figure of Mark that starts shipping next month. Mark S. – Youtooz Collectibles
I got a nice subtle Optics & Design mug for work where I am a designer. Same font and design as the placards/wall labels and the blue/teal accent color for more visual reference info but no other logos. No one has said anything at work about it which reflects poorly on them.
Just finished season. Whats the fucking marching band budget at this place? They got that many people on payroll and getting brain surgeries??
