Idk what that is but i know that i need it

After a month of confusion and frustration, i’m finally done The Return.

Episode 16 is easily my favourite of the entire season. 17 is also great but i felt like it was wrapping up shockingly neatly. And then 18 was like “ah, HERES the confusion again.”

And at the end of each episode I'm left with a sense of "where the fuck is this going?" A few times i've said it in the tone of intrigue. But its been slowly going down to a resigned "let's get on with it".

I will say though: Laura Dern as Diane? Perfect. No notes.

With the Dougie thing, it's not completely devoid of enjoyment. The attempted assassinations from the brothers and Tom Sizemore backfiring completely by luck is hilarious. But that's like a few moments of in an ocean of bad comedy. Not "so bad it's good" like ppl have told me. Just bad.

Like, as much as I'm a fan of legacy sequels actively rebuking the past or any type of fan-service, my mentality with that idea is if you're going to do it, you better have something very compelling to take its place.

And with this show? I'm not liking most of it. Mainly the Dougie thing.

So next week I finally finish this odyssey with the last 3 episodes. But my general feelings on the season so far? On the real...I don't like it. Most of it.

So…that sex scene….don’t think a mf with a fried brain can consent….

HOLY SHIT

Is Currents gonna be the only album I love wholeheartedly from start to finish?

From the looks of things....maybe. 🙃

…………..

3 more episodes today, including this apparently incredible episode 8 which everyone keeps saying is one of the best hours of TV ever.

My press screening’s tomorrow. Very much looking forward to it!🙏🏿🙏🏿
