I’m watching it now. Give it 10 minutes — it starts as kind of a downer, but — trying to avoid spoilers — when it turns around, it turns around with a bang.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Ann, that's a ferret.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Yeah, agreed.
I didn't like how they presented or solved the password problem, but they did make it work to the benefit of telling the story. The odd thing is, just this weekend I updated my will and my instructions to my executor, to avoid exactly that problem.
Good song picks and performances, I thought.

I just noticed today that ZEP had unwatched episodes on my queue! Watched with gratitude. It really is wonderful distraction for me. Really enjoyed the performances. I'm going to miss Joan though. Pout.

ZEP: Funniest. Love. Scene. Ever.

Our wings are not tired.
Yes, Fred. I may have to rewatch that. I was dying. Great music selections.
There was sadness, but a little song, a little dance, and the world is a better place.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I laughed out loud at that scene.

ZEP
They started out cringeworthy, then moved to one of my favorite songs, then moved into "Oh, hell no!" territory, all in the opening.
That is soooo far beyond watch-from-the-hall for me, on several levels. Maybe I'll try watching the rest this weekend on the web site, when I can skip around. and pause, and take things in very small segments.

Oh dear, I haven't watched the latest one yet. Sounds, yikes! A couple episodes ago when DH watched with me he asked why I said this was a comedy.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Yes, it was a pretty heavy episode. And the comic relief part was pretty cringey.
On the other hand — trying not to spoil — the last musical number was a brilliant reimagination of a very familiar song. Almost unrecognizable in a good way.

Agreed on all the above.
Certainly not a comedy. If I have thoughts on further episodes, I'll put them in Natter.
