TV Series


Just finished series 2 of Severance and I agree with a lot of what other people have posted already.

From episode four to episode nine it`s just muddled.

I know it`s designed to be a head bender and the acting is flawless, but it just wanders all over the place and as a result, it becomes really hard to focus on what`s going on.

I`m glad I watched it, but it`s not as good as the first ( imo )

I think world building was always a mandate for the second series, and it’s often where TV shows fall down. They build the world but lose a little of something that made the first season so very good. Stranger Things suffered from the same issue in its second season amongst others.

Thought it came together well at the end, opening up a whole new narrative. Agree about some of the middle episodes.
Feels like it has a lot in common with Westworld which if they’d kept at one series, would be remembered as one of the greats.
 
I have been watching Goliath over the last week or so, Billy Bob Thornton playing... BBT really. But its watchable and relatively easy on the brain. I quite like it.

Down and out lawyer who drinks too much or is deeply flawed but somehow works it out kind of scenarios... decent
 
So White Lotus finale...

Those who betray their ethics or principles, come away living. If you don't you end up in the water:
Jason Isaacs doesn't go through with his Jonestown scenario
Gaitok goes against his religion and gets the girl
Ladies who lunch return to normal surface dishonesty
Spa lady takes the money and screws Pornchai (in the same way that she was screwed)

Nice fade-out song.
