:heartbeat:

The S2 finale is one of the best episodes in the entire run. From that point on the show is pure magic.

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.

Aunty Donna's on Netflix. Absolutely fucking atrocious. Crazy unfunny. I somehow made it through an episode and a half

Watched A Creepshow Holiday Special last night, 'Satyr Claws' gave me a chuckle.

I think that's a really description of the show's appeal. It packs a lot of different elements into one package.

Thinking about this more, I really loved it.

It’s stupid. But it’s also extremely confident and bold. “We’re going to make a show about a jet setting flight attendant, a brutal murder, alcoholism, the power of self narrative, international spy games, middle aged malaise, meaningless sex, catty work relationships, and systemic power structures. Plus there’s a B-plot where Rosie Perez gets into hot water with North Korea. Oh and it’s all gonna be really light and silly, and we’ll do some weird fourth wall and unreliable narrator stuff.

We’ll stick it all in a blender, and cram it into eight episodes. Enjoy!”

I had not seen this show before.
told you it was good

Think im going to finally finish criminal minds.

Love this show and all its cheese and predictability.

Im pretty certain i've seen just about every episode up through season 12 over the years.

Think im finally gonna dive into the final couple seasons.
