Let's do that.

I get it.

Let's cross-cast.

At the same time, the show is really skirting on some stuff that's made me kind of uncomfortable.

Like, if the bad guys are these Koreans who are very organized and very cold and very whatever, it's like,

I don't know, man.

I don't know.

The first season was kind of groundbreaking for Asian-Americans to have just a normal contractor guy getting in a roadway beef with a normal woman.

And they don't know martial arts, and they're not mystical.

Their dad's not a 100,000-year-old snake monster.

You know what I mean?

There's nothing mystical about these Asians.

But even during the middle of the last season, I felt like maybe they're running out of steam a little bit, and they're starting to escalate to a place where it's like,

It started to feel a little desperate.

I was glad that it was over after 10.

This season, in only eight episodes, it felt like, to me, a continued escalation where there's so much stuff getting thrown at the wall here.

I feel like they really left some really kind of important stuff off of it that I wanted to know more about, to the point that I'm not even sure what the beef was exactly.

Like, what's the real, what are we mad about at each other?

You know, they bring up this idea that Gen Z workers are lazy and uninformed.

They make a lot about how, you know, Ashley, she thinks that an insurance deductible means a refund.
