Overall the show is just OK, but the dialogue in Flaked is pretty great.

What happened to the Netflix Watership Down miniseries?

There's this: https://www.netflix.com/title/80107989

But no official release date.

I'm kinda worried because of reports like this. If they turn WD into a kids show, I'm gonna.... gonna... gonna do something.

The whole point of WD is to scar children, otherwise why bother.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Amazon shows are almost universally poorly written and acted with terrible cinematography. Even Transparent and The Man in a High Castle had just one good season apeice.

The Sunday morning news shows are fucking terrible now.

I feel like they should all be renamed to not sully a once-great tradition.
