What is even happening?

Are you watching Station Eleven, sumi? Other Buffistas? A Twitter mutual recommended it to me today. I might check it out and was wondering what you all think of it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Not watching it yet, but plan to. Really enjoyed the book. Trying to coordinate viewing with friends.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I am finding myself strangely reluctant to watch it. I don't think I have a reason for that. I know I was also strangely reluctant to read the book but I did end up liking it when I got around to it. Maybe this is just some weird mental block that doesn't come up very much. Or maybe it's the pandemic. Dunno.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I think if I'd watched Station Eleven in 2018 I'd have loved it. Right now, it's really really good, but OOF. Pandemic.

Station Eleven

We ended up watching the first five episodes on either Christmas night or the next day. I can't remember. It really is an OOF, Jess. The latest episodes 1.6 and 1.7, * especially, really hit me hard. I think because I watched them yesterday, knowing Omicron doing its damndest to cripple our healthcare system. And I guess none of this is a spoiler, but I'm just going to let the spoiler font stay. * I was surprised HBO released two episodes in one week.

Also, is this the right thread for this (as opposed to the streaming thread)?

If anyone's up for a round of housekeeping on the board, we could probably combine these threads - the only real difference at this point is that HBO's been around longer than cord-cutting, right?

Our wings are not tired.

I loved Station Eleven and also YellowJackets!

Art Crawl!!!

I just started watching it. I have to admit that right now what I can handle right now are British gardening & home makeover shows so I’m kind of behind on most shows.

Oh, I just saw that Paulie Walnuts died. Sad now. Erica, thinking of you!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

HOTD was OK, I guess? Hard to tell from just this one episode.
