Great fukking show

I absolutely hate we gotta wait 2, sometimes 3 damn years in between seasons… when the fukk did that shyt become normal?

Its mostly HBO, a lot of other networks got Annual turn around times.

Fallout is coming back this december for example

She has the rope burn mark around her neck…

Yeah I caught that

Spoiler

they also showed the sky bridge that her and Lev crossed..

Speaking of Lev, they shot a wide angle of Abby in the theatre so I have no idea where she could be hiding in this version

Spoiler

I purposely looked and it looked like there was a slight walled off section from the camera. My only thing is abby didn’t have her jacket on when this happened lev had it on.

Ugh! Got in late so I’m watching now.


I’m highly upset we got 7 fukking episodes. This is ridiculous. And a 55min finale. Smdh This better be back in 2026

Even HoTD didn’t do us like this.

Van basically called this the worst episode of tv he has ever watched. Said Bella one of the most unlikable and unrelatable characters he can think of recently.

I agree with him all around. I held off on most of the criticisms out of curiousity of where the directors were taking things and to see if a lot of the changes were for good reason. I'll just say damn near every change made from the game was for the worse story wise. Season just felt too rushed. With the popularity of the show I just don't understand why they couldn't slow play more of the story instead of rushing through.

It's also like they went through great lengths to do everything they could to take away how bloodthirsty Elle was and tried to go so hard to make her a good guy.

Spoiler

I would've loved to see more focus put on just how much hell Elle went through as she was trying to track Abby and as she mowed down one friend after another through the process.

Let’s keep it a buck, this finale was mid

They slipped and fell on the landing now we gotta wait 3 years or some shyt for a season all about a character over half the casual watchers hate

Yo, fukk WB Discovery not greenlighting season 2 and 3 at the same time to streamline production.

 

[klientel]

That was really fukking good. Goddamn.

 

[Lord_nikon]

people aint shyt

Mazin probably wouldnt have been ready with a script in time anyway. He obviously dont know what he doing with this show/IP. How does he wait til now to say "we cant tell the full story w/o a season 4". That tells me he did some horrible planning and has no idea how to handle season 3.

 

[Gloxina]

She survived the rough waters in the speedboat, was seconds away from being gutted, survived another trip in the speedboat…

Plot armor is thiiiiiiiick.


I have 14min left

Hell of a way to go out for the season finale. As someone who hasn't played the game, I was throughout. I will say all the weather effects and dark scenes were shot really well. And with the wait between seasons, I need to stop bullshytting and just get around to playing the games.
