Some stories are best served with a book. This is a hard show to watch.

They made a self contained love story within the confines of a fungal world calamity and made you love the 2 characters and mourn their losses all within 30 minutes of introducing you to them in the first place.
That’s pretty much as good as writing, direction, acting and pacing can get.
I certainly won’t say it’s ‘one of the best tv episodes ever’ but it was brilliant.

Whenever a thing is supposed to be big, all of a sudden the entertainment press will talk about it and talk it up, and are trying to create as much experience to drum up business. Manufacture controversy where there is none, talk about how amazing a B+ episode of a show was, talk up an actor who is prospective for several big roles, etc. Just watch what you like and ignore media press - its as manufactured as the shows and actors it’s reporting on.

Meh. It's a business and they're your employer. They exist to make money, not to "support" you.

It's either the greatest TV episode ever or over long filler.

Season 2 of The Leftovers is my favorite single season of any television show I’ve ever watched

Everyone just join bandwagoning a filler episode for whatever reason. Its good than most tv though, a slightly extended UP movie opening with zombie background

Reply to What's Your Pick From 2023 Anticipated TV Shows? Which Show Do You Want to Add in This List? by andreagabrie
The Last of Us so far is shattering expectations and could very likely end up on my best of TV list of 2023 if the remaining episodes are as good as the first 3. HBO is on track to having the best television output again with the fourth seasons of both Succession and Barry out this year. The White House Plumbers and Love and Death have potential with great casts. Hopefully True Detective has their best season since the first. Reservation Dogs S3 hasn't got a release date, but if it comes out this year it'd definitely be one of my most anticipated shows. Season 2 was my second favorite season of television in 2022 behind Better Call Saul Season 6. It was a perfect blend of humor and heartfelt drama.

Shit. I hate when shows get canceled on cliffhangers.
I enjoyed it anyway.

Just pick a 90s song. Is it really that hard Netflix?

You can recommend something but that doesn’t mean the other people will like or dislike it. Which is why it’s fucking STUPID to implement some algorithm that recommends skipping seasons and shows.

"So I'm thinking of watching The Godfather, is it any good?"
"Good?"
"Good, yeah, is it a good movie?"
"There's no such thing as an objectively good movie."
"Ok, but do people like, like it-"
"FFFFF FUUCK YOOU!"

At the very least I genuinely thought it would be some show about vampires when I clicked on it.

They end.
Edit: Re-submission of my idea for the next League of Legends based TV project just to be a Tales from The Crypt style story-time show with Lamb and Wolf as narrators showing random people who live in Runeterra with random champions showing up.

I actually wish it went even deeper into postapocalyptic theatre. With some dark humor. Then the mine episode happened.
I did not really like trying to both have action scenes and the theatre stuff, all with a very straight and serious tone.

You are currently throwing a tantrum because subjectivity freaks you out. That's some Rain Man shit right there.
