I just watched the first two episodes of the FX/Hulu show The Patient, featuring Steve Carell and Domnhall Gleason. It's from the creators of The Americans. It was good, I liked them. Only two eps out so far, and we must wait for the others.
I wish they had all just dropped at once. The week is an artificial, astrological construct. Unlike the year, the month, and the day, the week has no basis in astronomy. It does not even have a biological basis, like the way our mathematics is built around the number ten, for our ten fingers. Some Babylonian wanted to honor seven gods and now my television diet must suffer? Why do I have to get episodes dripped out to me based on this nonsense?
Abolish the week!

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.

I don't think they're the same at all. Ted Lasso is a dressed-up 90s sitcom, The Bear might share some emotional notes here and there but is much more invested in understanding what it means to create something. I found it to be both profoundly engaging and affecting.

Yeah I agree with all of this. First two episodes were good, I think Gleason is underrated as an actor.
