Very glad she’s getting her flowers finally. She was half of what made Better Call Saul great and she got zero award recognition for it. Gilligan knew it and doubled down on her.

Well no, she got a healthy fan base and a big paycheck from Better Call Saul, and hundreds of job offers.

These stupid awards are not important.

In some regards you're right, in matters of paychecks though, being a emmy/golden globe/oscar winner deffo helps, as they can and will advertise with it.

They might not be important to you, but they are important to a lot of people, first and foremost to the recipients they honor.

The problem this show will have is the same problem all Apple+ shows have. We'll have to wait multiple years for season 2 and we'll have forgotten what happened in season 1 or just forget about the show entirely.

Ya, I hate this, but I am not sure if it's just me getting older or just training, but I just watch what I watch and if it stops/never comes back oh well.

There are a few shows I'm still disappointed they ended early, but either TV just isn't as good now, I just don't care as much or maybe a bit of both...

[–] Prove_your_argument@piefed.social 6 points 2 weeks ago

It could be worse, they could cancel most of their shit after season 1 or 2 like everybody else.

Does suck waiting years for subsequent series. I wish we could get some production quality drops in exchange for more focus on story, dialog and acting.

[–] Ronan@piefed.social 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Is that a problem though? The problem for me would be lackluster content and pushing out dozens terrible shows that producers do manage to push out on a yearly schedule. I much rather wait longer, for a better show. I actually believe it's an ad for a show if it has multiple years between seasons. It shows me, as a potential viewer, that the show prioritizes quality over quantity and that the IP is strong enough that the company producing the show is willing to invest in it that many years later.

Oh, you are gonna love reading and then waiting for the Game Of Thrones book series to end.

[–] Ronan@piefed.social 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I didn't live under a rock 😉 You can probably already make assumptions how I feel about the ending and what I believe they should have done (production) wise.

I don't get why they didn't take another year to deliver a qualitative ending. Even when the company believes they have good momentum, which they truly had. They now completely nuked it with that ending. It would have been a god tier series, that people would rewatch countless times. Now it's just remembered as a disappointment.

[–] z3rOR0ne@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Lol, no, I meant the book series. Totally agree on the show, that actually did deserve way more time in the oven to cook.

All I'm pointing out is the waiting game can get ridiculous like waiting over a decade for an author to create, granted, a very well done story, while said author goes off to work on other shit cuz he got bored or intimidated or whatever.

I rewatched Season 1 of Severance in the runup to Season 2.

If a show is strong, a rewatch enhances the experience. You notice details you might have missed.

I mean, how many people here post about how many times they've seen LOTR?

I heard her awhile back on some podcast talking about making her own furniture and she builds it to be easily portable, so she can get the fuck out, if she wants, not a quote

[–] RedSnt@feddit.dk 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Like a prepper or because she moves around a lot? From an interview I saw it seems like when she grew up she'd always be moving around with her parents, so maybe that has stuck with her in some way.

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 weeks ago

She might also be a prepper, don't remember, but it sounded like she liked the convenience and doing it with her own style

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Yay! Happy for mommy 😁
