My wife watches Love on the Spectrum and every time I come into the living room she’s in floods of tears and she has to reassure me they’re happy tears 😁
Great work, Amanda! You have my vote for the new format.
It is fascinating to see The Last of Us S2 discourse play out, as someone who was coming from the games. It is nowhere near as toxic and dehumanizing (which is good!) but seemingly just as divisive, in terms of the story as is, even with the structural/ characterization changes they've made. It'll be interesting to see just how well these final few episodes stick the landing.
It seems pretty clear where they're going to break for S3 but the question is, can they maintain that audience momentum until it airs two/three years from now. I'm not so sure.
On the reality TV side, both ongoing seasons of OG Below Deck and Survivor are putting me to sleep week-by-week, which is never a ringing endorsement. Like, I'm doing other things while these shows play but I still want to be have a modicum of engagement... and that's not the case (and yet, I'm still watching, so they got me).
Crazy to hear they've lightened the content for Last of Us...! But makes sense when I remember the first game. I'm definitely excited to see where it goes and I hope they can pull something off. I'd hate to lose interest!
Below Deck (any of them) is my flight show. I don't know why, but it's always what I look for first. I'm inconsistent at best, but I do enjoy it. I tried out Down Under the other day. Not bad!
That's the trick isn't it? Sometimes their claws are in too good!
They're great flight shows, for sure, especially Down Under! Good TV tourism, if nothing else. I've just gotten into Survivor again after quite a few years away and I definitely feel that!
😂 Also wow The Hills! What a throwback! I’ve never seen it in full because it aired when I felt I was too cool for reality TV and dating film school d-bags.
I LOVE this format!! Keep it up, this is my go-to for what to watch/read/listen to.
Definitely checking out Four Seasons and The Residence soon

So. Many. Tears. It is such a gem of a program!

Hurrah! +1 for new format.

I'll be curious to hear your thoughts!
