It’s massive. Feels like a small town. Let’s live there.

This was the tv show, which is my first viewing.

I’ve seen the movie twice fully, and one Anders viewing.

When the dialogue immediately repeats what the voice-over just said.

Example:
Voice-over: "Bubba knew everything there is to know about the shrimping business."
Bubba: "I know everything there is to know about the shrimping business."


Super cliché but it makes me smile every time

I get a kick out of that too.

Joe Montana was in an SNL sketch and this was the exact premise. Hilarious.
