Did'nt realize there was a second season of Russian Doll. I know a lot of people here didn't like the first one, but I thought it was pretty cool.

I liked it too. Season 2 felt minor and less emotional but it was still fun to watch, especially as Annie Murphy is in it

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.

yeah, they gave her a meaty role this season. Lots of different things to do. S1 was a good setup for her, but now her character is has more dimension maybe.
Same. At a basic level, the need to scatter her mother’s ashes felt like it dragged on too long, and it made her central conflict more internal than external.She feels more fleshed out this season, more engaged with the other characters than her own feelings
agreed.

If I were in charge I'd pass a law saying that every commercial starring a celebrity has to open with the line "remember me?"
