Spoilers and spoilers masquerading as "fan theories" are everywhere now, I think only this shows relatively small audience saved it.

Niwrad posted:It feels like Season 1 and 2 would have been the time for them to win them for. Justin Theroux is great but it's an 8 episode season and he hasn't appeared in two of the episodes so far. International Assassin is the best thing I've ever seen on TV.

Also very few people that kill themselves actually have nothing to live for. To the contrary they always have lots to live for. Which is what made the scene and phone call so realistic, heartbreaking, and moving.

Different stuff hits people in the feels in different ways. The well scene in International Assassin got me, the part with young Patty trying to talk Kevin into pushing her in. Before that the last one was The Constant in

UmOK was joking. Also, I think Laurie wanted to give the lighter to Kevin which is why she flipped out on Nora.

JethroMcB posted:Right, I'm saying that Grace became accustomed to having no closure. She had the glorious uncertainty of having her children Depart ripped away when their bodies were found, so she found a new question to fixate on. Even though she seems to want Kevin to get the answer for her I wonder if she'll be satisfied or willing to accept it if he can deliver it. Only if it leads to finding their shoes I'd say.

It's funny, for a show about 2% of the world population instantly vanishing, i feel like some people are a little too about nothing being supernatural other than departure.

oliwan posted:I just saw episode 7, I'm not sure where the penis scanner fits on the retard scale of the show. I guess right below the magical negro in the cabin called virgil who is a guide to the afterlife. For a second I tried to think of a show that has a passionate following that I could start watching and then trolling its fans with "edgy", contrarian critiques on internet message boards but then I realized that doing absolutely anything else would be a better use of my time.

Just my personal interpretation of the show and I'm totally down with reading others. Except for Oliwan. He/She has an MA in literature and is too smart for me. At any rate I'm right there with you, Oliwan is too smart for me as well.

Now that I've had some time to reflect a bit I'm warming up to it. Also, how amazing was it when Kevin said "sometimes I just like to get a little "? I don't feel cheapened by the Laurie thing. She said she was an avid diver and maybe she didn't think she'd get back to Australia. It really was now or never for her to dive there. It also explains how serene she was despite her kids calling. No need to be torn up if you aren't going to kill yourself.
