Thanks for making the thread. I finished the show yesterday and was surprised there wasn't alread thread for it. I mentioned it in the chat thread and it was kind of ignored so that was pretty strange, I guess the show flew under the radar somehow.TheOmegaWalrus posted:.. Didn't know about the podcast, these often seem to be a waste of time but I'll definitely give it a shot. Sassy Sasquatch posted:Watched it a week ago, as a Simons fan it did nothing for me. I'm not sure if it's the format or the source material but the pacing was pretty uneven with its overly long lulls intersped with awkward ellipses. Especially in the first half. Despite the good acting I could not get attached to most of the characters and ultimately felt like the show didn't have anything new or interesting to say about them. Most of them follow a predictable path and whatever social and political commentary there was felt trite to me. (cue the obvious parallels with the current US administration) quote:The show has good production values and does a great job at ramping up tension at times but it ultimately rings hollow.

I thought it was heavily implied they had multiple of those radar thingies and shot down the plane at another location, or at least saw it explode/crash by coincidence. That's the only way it makes sense that they prematurely shut down Alvin's station; they had to know it done. As for Evelyn and Lionel, they got the purge treatment form the VP. Somehow the FLOTUS had enough loyalists to get her out and get them released too and congress to remove the nazi VP (probably the least realistic part lol). They really betrayed the jews so I suppose nobody cared about that too much, it's not like racism was fixed

Escobarbarian posted:Why didn’t you just make it yourself? The people in Couch Chat don’t just exist to make threads at your behest. Sassy Sasquatch posted:A friend of mine argued that it sets up the youngest going to see Evelyn at her office on his own. Its not a great payoff but its not entirely useless. Alhazred posted:The show gives you just enough information so that you can piece it together yourself and I really like it when writers does that.
