After really enjoying S1 of Abbott Elementary, I'm very lukewarm on S2 after watching the first few episodes. Feels like they've really honed in on everyone's annoying characteristics and how each episode feels like learning a lesson, rather than exploring some of the intriguing storylines introduced by last season's finale. The recent Ava-centric episode was very funny and probably the strongest episode to date. I think they need to introduce some more characters, not in a "we're running out of ideas" way but just because of the fact that theres more than 5 teachers in that damn school. That teacher's assistant looked like she was gonna become more of a regular but then she wasnt, thank god. I know her character is supposed to be annoying but she was unfunny annoying.

I had only seen up to the juice episode, but I’m glad to hear the teacher aide isn’t a factor. But yeah let’s see more teachers, maybe get a little more backstory on Barbara. Like I get that Melissa is a cRaZy eyetalian and that Jacob is a performative white guy, we don’t need to be beat over the head with that.

I was watching West World before it got pulled, and I actually liked the third season. Heard a lot of bad things about it, but I felt like season 2 wen't too deep into the characters instead of the story, so I liked the change of pace. I had just started season 4 but I guess it's gone for now.

They basically acted like the 3rd season didn't happen or was very unimportant to the overall story.

For White Lotus deaths, I'm thinking Albi's dad or grandad, Ethan, Cameron, and Harper. But also wouldn't put it past Tanya to accidentally massacre everyone on a yacht somehow. Yo lol Just finished the season, what a wild ride

Liked the second half of glass onion way more than the first. Overall liked it, but less than knives out

Been watching sex lives of college girls. It's kind of dumb, but there have been some parts that made me laugh out loud. It's a good palette cleanser between shows

After realizing that, I had a way harder time enjoying it.

Good rule: don’t watch tv shows with dances that go viral on tik tok.

From the trailer it just looked exactly like the garbage Sabrina Netflix show which is essentially edgier Harry Potter. I think these shows are made for teenagers and creeps though, so probably not the target audience.

That's exactly what it is I said earlier in the thread. Sabrina with the character switched to Wednesday Addams

Season 2 of White Lotus was fantastic. I have never been more attracted to Aubrey Plaza.

Started the Sopranos for the first time a few days ago. Already on season 2. Tony's mom is such a bitch.
