Watched the first two episodes of the new, and last, season of The Handmaid's Tale and watched episode three this morning. I am interested to see how they tie things up and hope that the final season isn't a letdown like final seasons often are.

I’ve always thought - and I WILL fight people on this - that ‘The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt’ had the best final season and best series finale of all time.

But I do agree with your point. Final seasons that suck (most) do so because they’re out of ideas.

Many Korean dramas have only one season. They're conceived as whole entities rather than as an open-ended series. That probably explains a lot. Including the frustration when there is no season two.

If you know me (as well as recent Netflix drops), you might appreciate this.



It took a lot of tries to capture (eventually, I just took a photo of the iPad screen on my iPhone), and a lot of time using some online AI tool trying to remove the lines from the paper it was drawn on.

Watched the most recent available episode of Call the Midwife yesterday and just caught up with the newest episode of The Handmaid's Tale.

I have enjoyed The Handmaid's Tale for the most part but it's odd to me that the main character (June) and her husband (Luke) have no chemistry at all that I can see. I get that the other couples are paired up and not necessarily in love with each other but those two should at least pretend as though they belong together. Their words say yes but I just don't see it. Seems odd casting to me.

Call the Midwife is always good.

I've also been watching this season of Grey's Anatomy. This is more TV watching than normal for me and when the seasons/series are over I guess I will go back to TV as background noise only.

Started on my second watch of Hyper Knife. Park Eun-bin and Sul Kyung-gu delivered outstanding performances. The only regrettable thing is that it is so short at eight episodes.
