OMG, the Demons on the Punjab… well done! I’m really happy they’ve gone back to episodes set in history…
I thought this was interesting.
This episode order seems to be canon
https://www.netflix.com/ca/title/80174608
but for me the series started with Episode 8 (Good Hunting), followed by Episodes 1 through 6 in sequence (that’s as far as I’ve got).
No doubt this says something profound about my personality, and if Netflix releases their algorithm I can save a bundle on therapy.
I’m enjoying the bite-size format, by the way. I don’t think the cartoonish stories could hold up if they were made longer.
I will admit that I have only watched the Scalzi episodes, so far.
Three Robots was fun, especially having read the story. Yogurt is almost a little too on the nose for our current reality. Alternate Histories? Meh.
I started with Witness.
When I watched LDR I didn’t realize that the episode order was one of four, so my thought on Witness was that it was okay but a definite way to say Yes. This is TV Mature and we mean it.
Rewatched the episodes I really liked and now I’m looking for the original Heavy Metal because I’m really in the mood for seeing the Loc-Nar again.
Even the characters who are not New Age cult leaders talk like New Age cult leaders
Yup. I found The Leftovers to be more active at pissing me off, but OA is just ridiculous.
Don’t look up tea bagging.
i loved season one. it’s so bizarre – i didn’t realize season two had started. looking forward to catching up.
shoulda listened to you
I love OA, too. Excited for the new season. Gonna binge this weekend.
I was going to comment on that show, but now I want to wait and hear what you thought first.
I didn’t mind the ending, because I saw the time reset coming.
S2 should be interesting to see how they reconcile the different timelines and being back in their younger bodies.
I didn’t realize until later that there was going to be another season. I can’t imagine how they’re going to handle the noticeable aging of the kids. I also can’t imagine how they’re going to restart Russian Doll, unless they are going to use a whole new cast.
it’s like a self-help book full of magical thinking written by a rich white person who bought drugs in an abandoned building once
Story of my life.
you say you like the show, but you also like the terrible things i say about it
I love it. I am such the audience - yes, I know. I’m a terrible person who buys yoni eggs. No, not really. But I am that market.
Have you seen
the characters are flawed and corrupt but also are trafficking in actual wisdom that helps people
and they manage to keep it ambiguous whether the supernatural/pseudoscientific stuff is “real” or not
No…sounds interesting!
For Russian Doll, they kinda have to. There’s no point in watching it, otherwise.
I love the idea, but not the execution.
The other movies about near-death experiences I can think of are Brainstorm and Flatliners
