Fuck! I was wondering what I was going to watch today! I'm so glad I caught up on this thread, because I forgot it was the 26th today.
Must behave and also listen to the online course I'd promised myself to, but...whoo!
Fred: Oh my God! Angel, you're…cute! Angel: Fred, don't! Fred: Oh, but the little hands! And the hair! Angel: Hey! You're fired.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Just finished! I feel like I need a wiki to put together what the hell just happened.

That was totally a cameo by Dan Harmon, wasn't it?
(I feel like we should whitefont here, but it could also go in Premium where it wouldn't--does that make sense?)

YES IT WAS!
I guess technically Netflix would be Premium, but it feels weird not to talk about AD in here. Maybe follow movie rules? Whitefont for two weeks?

Oh, yeah, I hadn't really thought about it, but yeah.
But it's so Comedy with a capital C, it should be here! But I'm only halfway through and don't want to dodge spoilers. But will I avoid reading discussion wherever it happens? Unlikely.
I was actually kind of underwhelmed by the first episode, but it's certainly accumulating nicely. I find that I am already looking forward to the commentary tracks where I hope to find out what decisions were to make production easier/possible, I suspect that will be extremely interesting.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That's what I told Juliana yesterday--the first new ep was kind of weak, but since then it has gotten a lot better, and did so pretty quickly.
I am about half way through, but I may need to finish it today before I fall into the work rabbit hole
What ep was Harmon in?

Episode 2. Apparently he is credited as "yurt clerk."

Shit. I meant to spoiler font that. So much for my intentions, forget the rest of my post...
There is really no way I could talk about some of the episodes, because they overlap so much. I feel there's a sixteenth episode that has no new footage (which, really, the fifteenth almost accomplishes) but is a new story and experience because of the context.
Completely not story related--how long did it take you to realise the title cards were changing as well as the narration of the credits?

Maybe 3 or 4 episodes? Early enough that I went back to see the first few again - not watching the whole episode, just checking the titles.

I caught the title card/narration change pretty quickly, but it took me a while to notice that even the theme music was different sometimes. Also, I liked that Lindsay's card changed when she got a haircut.

Right? You can't really talk about the major scenes set up in the premiere because it takes the whole season to get the whole story.
