Which is to say, if you'd spent like an hour reading it in graphic form, it would have been fun and visually appealing.

But as an eight hour miniseries, there are, well, a number of things that are just left hanging and/or don't make sense to the extent that you'd expect them to in a more primarily (what?) textual piece.

Something like that.

Hm, well, okay, that did have an ending! Not awful, but...

Made from a comic book -- I mean graphic novel -- does rather check out.

(I was afraid for a second there that they were going to break the loop by giving the bad guy Erectile Dysfunction...)

Woo woo! The loop's different this time around!

(I do feel like someone from 1890 and someone from 2053 might have a bit more of a language / accent problem than this.)

I'm also afraid that we aren't going to find out why the good guy got split into 3+ parts, but the bad guy didn't. (Or didn't so far?)

I do eagerly await the explanation of how traveling through time gives you a distinctive wrist tattoo...

I like the subtle 2053 London accents, too, assuming I'm not imagining it.

(Using different actors for young Polly and old Polly was certainly a better decision!)

Do you have a source on this? It's delightful. :)

So, #Facebook was displeased that I posted that King of the Hill image with Bill on the roof, assuming I was trying to kill myself, or some other suicide-adjacent idea. (The actual theme was more related to seasonal depression.)

And Facebook's response was to hide the post, shame me for it, cut me off from several points of communication on the site, and give me the option to 'appeal'.

If I really was _that_ suicidal, do you REALLY think any of those moves made was going to push someone back from the edge?

Fucking incompetent assholes.

GOOD LORD THIS IS SLOW-MOVING!

I kind of see what they're doing, but I'm not convinced it wouldn't have been better as say a 90-120 minute movie...

Man, watching media can really kill a whole afternoon, eh?

Show thread

Oh, they were just playing with us in an ordinary sort of way back at 6.5, weren't they?

Show thread

They seem to be waffling a bit in the direction of "the people involved *remember* having been around the loop before", which is an interesting take. But they aren't all-in on it. Yet?
