I have to assume that Din's disinterest in finding out his passenger's name was a characterization beat showing his continued misanthropy?
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Queen's Gambit is my favourite viewing this year. For rabbit hole fun, there are bunches of articles to read, and a really interesting interview on Pop Culture Happy Hour with a female child chess prodigy, though the series supposedly is based on Bobby Fisher.
The lead looks very much like Plei, don't you think? Anyone else a fan of the show?
It's right up there with Justified, Mad Men, The Americans, Breaking Bad et al.

Asking despite low expectations, anybody watching The Untamed on Netflix?

I watched a couple of episodes of The Untamed to see what the fannish buzz was about. Totally get it, too. But I'd prefer dubbed over subbed, as I am usually doing something while the tv's on, and it's easier if I can hear what's going on rather than reading it. So I haven't continued it. It's a beautiful show, though.

Did anybody tell you to start with Ep. 3, watch through ep. 30 something, watch 1&2 and continue? I didn't do that, and on rewatch I didn't again, b/c I knew stuff this time. I've rewatched, and have most of the characters, their connections and associations worked out, and am working on remembering the names. The pretty is very distracting.
I checked Netflix just now. I remembered there was a 'languages and subtitles' button, and yes, I was right. You have a choice of multiple languages, none of which is English, so I can see your problem. Thanks for giving it a shot though. I have no idea why I've tumbled in so deep to this series. I'm holding off on my third (!) rewatch and doing some meta reading. Plus, Netflix has several similar shows, so I'll be sampling some of those. I do think the complicated, gorgeous fantasy has been a valuable antidote to real life the past several weeks. I probably wouldn't have had the patience, otherwise.

Oh, my tumblr feed is roughly 40-40 The Untamed and The Witcher, with a smattering of Supernatural making up the rest. It’s definitely fannish catnip.

I'm going to end up watching The Untamed, aren't I? Dammit.

;^) I'm following a couple of Untamed mavens on my Tumblr--one is also an SPN and a Shadowhunters fan, so that works out nicely, she's laoih. Another, who has done a lot to help me clarify who's who and related to who and the whys and wherefores is hysieme--they do a lot of meta. And several gif and pic pushers are around, too.
So. very. pretty.
