Hakkesshu posted:I don't think this show is awful, but it really lacks the confidence of the previous seasons, and it's relying on so many tired and lazy writing tropes and it's not like the acting is carrying it like it was in season 3. Yeah...watched S1 when it first came out. Binged it a few days ago. There is definitely a difference lol. I will say Ennis County Memorial Hospital seems like a world class large hospital and bustling for the size of the community. Yet they need a vet to look at some corpses.

Given that they basically adlibbed the ending of episode 5, maybe that's how they ended up doing the entirety of 6.

Toaster Beef posted:I'm rewatching TD season one and gently caress almighty is it ever engaging. Like I've seen it a bunch of times now and obviously its reputation is sterling so it's entirely old news how great it is, but it catches me by surprise every single time with how hard it is to not just immediately start playing the next episode. Even if it's fuckin' two in the morning and I need sleep. I always enjoyed the extended car rides and how the conversations evolved as time went on. You start with Marty basically saying to Rust...STFU, you are insulting our culture...to nodding his head sagely a few episodes later maybe realizing the insomniac-quasi-junkie does actually have a few nuggets of wisdom.

God help me, strapping in to watch S2 again after binging S1 a few weeks ago. Will give it a fair shake. Now that I have a refresher of the absurdity of having 100 characters that don't mean much I might appreciate it more.

Cithen posted:Season 2 is legitimately The problem I had with 2 at the time it came out was...it was just a freaking onslaught of characters thrown at you week after week. I remember reading a synopsis of what was going on at the time to try to get a handle on it. Anyways, before my now ongoing rewatch, viewed another video that breaks it down quite nicely which makes it more enjoyable since you can pay attention and laugh at more of the absurdity of it all. Yeah, of course the VV lines...but always a good chuckle when someone responds back to him with just a goofy reply and VV does the ... back. lulz

Just finished S2. It fucks. Forgot about the batshit train station poo poo. Hell Frank had basically the entire weaponry of Tunisia's army in some poo poo speakeasy with substandard mattresses. I remember chuckling a few episodes back on that laundry list on a notepad that looks like some intern wrote it needing shotguns and grenade launchers down to the model types. With Velcoro strutting around in a cowboy hat to avoid authorities with that disguise (might be what another poster was hallucinating further up)...to the Brother going nutso and then everyone including Holloway getting lit up by friendly fire. Greatness. Is the ending perfect? Hell no. I would have made several changes.

Lampsacus posted:Hell yeah. I think one fun/interesting component of the ending was watching Frank almost escape to South America so many times. He had so many chances to leave with his life but kept going back for one more thing and then "i want my jacket back" hahaha powpow There was a lot going on that whole freight-train-sized from hell plot. He knew he needed more cash to bring him back to "whole" (or where his previous life was) along with his wife. And then you realize his thinking/ways is during the desert march.

The twist is he has a later stage of dementia, somehow buys some random plane ticket, ends up in Ennis and solves the drat thing within 5 minutes.

GABA ghoul posted:Started a s2 rewatch and there is absolutely no doubt that it slaps. It's all so extremely over the top though. Vslcoro just wailing on rear end pen's dad with some brass knuckles, Ani stashing something like 10 knives all over her body or Woodrow's maximally oblivious girlfriend. And everything and everyone is just so miserable and angry. But it all still kinda works because there is also some weird levity to all of it due to the jokes and it refusing to take itself seriously. I like how individually, at the start they weren't too bad...by the end they were even more hosed up disasters.

GABA ghoul posted:Finally finished the s2 rewatch and it's really, really good. I would put it on almost the same level as s1 now. Don't be a tough guy, don't be a fool, rewatch it! Said it before, it threw so much at you, and you didn't have the ability to binge watch to remember 40 characters that are running around week after week. That and S1 had the detectives at a crime scene within the first few minutes. S2 took until the end of the episode after some ham-fisted writing for them to get there. And of course, VV's dialogue. But yeah, it's great. Rewatch with subtitles on. It is somewhat funny on things I would have missed without them.

Ramrod Hotshot posted:I’ve only seen Season 1 (and one episode of 4 lol) because I saw the bad reviews when 2 came out and wrote it off. Started watching it finally after listening to the recent trueanon episode reviewing the show as a whole. It’s pretty good, and takes on new meaning post-Epstein. The dialogue is clunky and there are some confounding editing decisions here and there. Otherwise I don’t get the hate. When you weren't able to binge it...it was a mess to follow with all the characters and yeah, the editing that switched gears every 2 minutes. Requires a 2nd viewing to fully comprehend the greatness of the antics of Ray Velcoro.

The_Rob posted:Him having an existential crisis because of a stain on his ceiling is one of the best scenes in the entire series. He rules. Premise is this...
