And I'm curious about what's going to happen.
I don't know when they showed up.
And so for me, season two is still the high watermark of when this show is operating at full blast, both in terms of its ability to make absolutely inexplicable choices that should never have been done.
And why did anyone not come in and be like, what are we doing here?
This is absurd.
But then also just so ballsy to...
have these incredible fight scenes these um you build the world you understand the world and then they're like yeah we're gonna blow up the world now it works so well when they can pull it off and it also is so good at here's a thread here here's one over here everything comes together at the end of the season and you see how all of the puzzle pieces yes connect
So satisfying.
And when it has been able to pull that off, which is an uneven record on this show, it goes so hard that you're just like, why is not everyone screaming about how great this thing is?
And the transition into the later seasons of this show have been fantastic.
frustrating and interesting for me because I think this most recent season is actually better at that early kind of all of the pieces are coming together and the world that you were watching get developed is now, they are perfectly happy to threaten it in ways that you kind of thought they weren't ever going to do.
And I feel that momentum again, except that the casting is not as good as it was.
It's a real problem.
Every time.
Yeah.
And the thing is like,
It is always hard when you have to transition to new casts.
But shows have done it.
It's not like this is a science that no one has ever figured out.
I mean, if you think about ER, ER ends with like seven casts later.
