I care far more about Mindy than I do about Emily. Ashley Park is the best - along with the actress who plays Sylvie, another favorite of mine. I just wish they would give Mindy better stories.

I don't doubt that Orpheus loves Eurydice, but his obsession for her is very unhealthy. The lyrics of that song are creepy as hell. Hope his trip to find her in the underworld will teach him something. We don't know yet who the third human is, right?

I loved it! It's fun, It's new, It's interesting and thought provoking. Jeff Goldblum is the perfect clown and Riddy's quiet desperation touched my heart. On to the next!

Loved the finale. I don't know what I was expecting, but I wasn't expecting THIS. Just perfect. P.S. Wow just realized I'm pretty alone in this. For me, the ending gave meaning to everything that happened before. It always bothered me that the only thing they did was to save the world, again and again. But it turns out they were in a kind of loop, repeating themselves, only a little different with every new time-line. The only way to end the loop was to erase themselves, since they created it- well, Hargreaves did it, but they couldn't go to his world and erase him, so they were out of options. I guess the ending made sense to me emotionally. I loved the romance between Five and Lila. I loved the scene with all the Fives, and that our Five was the only one who figured out the solution. I mean, Five was always my favorite, so the fact that he got to be happy for seven years, and then he was the one who solved this mess, was very satisfying to me. I don't care about the unanswered questions, because for me they are all blips created by the hundreds of different timelines. I did love the ending. I'm going to watch it again now.

S04.E05: Six Years, Five Months, and Two Days
maddie965 replied to AnimeMania's topic in The Umbrella Academy
I kind of liked this episode, because it's clearly inspired by The Magicians, where two characters (two beautiful boys) get stuck in a timelune for years and fall in love. But one of them is in denial later. Hope Five and Lila can find a way to stay together. Proof of concept, anyone? Maybe the season will have two parts? No way they can solve this in two episodes. -
S01.E08: These Fragments I Have Shored Against My Ruin
maddie965 replied to AnimeMania's topic in Constellation
I was really enjoying this until Paul's episode. I think it went downhill from there. I still loved some moments in the last two episodes, but it was a big mess. Too bad. I wanted this to work. Any recommendations while we wait for a new season of FAM? -
Oh thank God! I would be so disappointed if she came back after everything she said about Sarah (and I believe every word). Also, stay away from this disaster, Kim!
-
Yes. Jo being able to play the piano in the end confused the hell out of me. Can she incorporate two universes at the same time, just relaxing her mind? Or something?
-
Oh I'm enjoying it a lot. I'm not sure about the specifics of this multiverse. Do those alternate versions exist and are just outside their usual universes, or is Jo ( and Henry) creating this? Guess we'll find out soon enough. P.S. love the name of the episode. Is that a real poem Paul is reading?
-
Of course Henry is an asshole right now, and of course we will end up liking him.

Three here. Loving it so far. No Margot, but some interesting Russians.
-
Very interesting, and probably true. Thank you!

Did I dream this, or did Carmy let something ar Claire's door at the end of the episode?
-
I was ready to defend this season to death, even after seeing all the bad reviews out there (hope Carmy did not see them!). But the last episode broke me. It's bad enough that the first half of the episode plays like a documentary with chefs talking about their lives (not interested, sorry), but then they have to go and NOT SOLVE ANYTHING. I mean, I don't need plots, I love the poetic reflexive episodes, I adored Napkins and Ice Chips, I worship the actors, the dialogue, the characters, the flashbacks, everything. But give me some resolution! Things hanging in the air: - Carmy and Claire; - Carmy and Syd; - Carmy and Ritchie; - Review (really, they couldn't show the f* review?) - Restaurant closing for lack of money. I feel like we were promised a whole season, but they gave us half. Even two more episodes might solve it. The way it is, The Bear is still miles above most of the shows out there, but was unable to give us a full, satisfying meal this time around.

Yes. Pete is the best. His tenderness on the last episode of the second season left me in tears.
