I know I am late to the party on this one, but I finally have AppleTV so got around to this show.

HOLY shite.

This might be the best thing on TV, or at least in the top 5.

I cannot believe how well done this was, how weird, dramatic, and funny it is. How emotionally invested I became.

My wife really does not care about what is on the TV, and especially not anything sci-fi adjacent, but she was completely hooked after the first few minutes and was paying attention. We had great conversations discussing it which is rare for a TV show.

I've went down so many rabbit holes since the finale (Which is one of the best and most shocking Season Finales I have seen in a very long time, maybe since the Lost S3 finale).


Anyone else totally in love with this show?

Absolutely. I recommend it to everyone. I’ve watched it at least twice. Any date yet on next season?

It’s absolutely brilliant TV. I need to do a rewatch soon. I think they’re back at work on season 2. The writers and actors strike out them way behind.

They are currently filming through April. Strike put them way behind.

Stiller said he thought it wouldn't be too long after filming that they would release.

Man I am just so stunned by how great this show was. The reveals in the last episode had me floored.

I'll likely watch S1 again with fresh eyes.

Its so twisty and intricate, that you have to miss a bunch of stuff. Just me looking at reddit posts about it last night made me realize how much stuff I didn't see.

incredible show

SPOILERS











What is up with Harmony/Ms. Selvig? Why is she...the way she is.

Is Lumon just a front for an actual cult (which seems fairly obvious). Kinda seems like the Eagons are basically like Mormons but fronted by a vast company.

Gemma is only "alive" for her sessions. So the rest of the time is she a vegetable? Did she not die and can only get out of it for brief times do to severance?

Did anyone notice the use of Red v Blue?

I just read about it, they have explained it and it makes total sense.

After your second rewatch you get a finger trap.


After your third you can get your own waffle party.


Seems like you need to get to binging and you can tell us…

I’m in like episode 3 or 4 right now and it seems interesting, but not all that great. Does it get better?

I would say yes, but I already thought it was phenomenal about 10 minutes in so
