Love a series that doesn’t shy on irritating the viewer: Carol was bored and they carried the feeling by using a sloth pace, speedrunning it wouldn’t have conveyed the proper character development that they are masterfully doing in this show.
Manusos storyline is great and every shot during his trip is wonderful and sad at the same time. They show his determination even though he almost never speaks a word, but when he does, he kicks!
You believe the intention is to irritate? I doubt that. I think it’s the opposite: the show wants to appeal to our patience, and reward us. If you want instant gratification there’s a gajillion action thrillers to watch…this is a rare show that takes its time, and some of us appreciated it from the get go.
I mean…I think you agree.
I think some scenes are supposed to be, yes (I didn’t mean the whole episode): the petrol station scene or the window golf mainly. In most other cases, fully agree with you.
