That show (from OGDW's spoiler) isn't bad (at my speeds anyway), but I'm a sucker for the yet-another-teen-angst-in-supernatural-setting genre so your ymmv may vary.

First ep was really unnecessary. Practically counter-productive. And slow even at the 3x speed I wound up at. Rest of it was fine at 2.5x. Interesting story fill-in if not terribly entertaining.

I'm fine with him as a character but i really hope they don't let anywhere near the director's chair.

They're pretty good. Along with Tarkin and most of the Plagueis book they're my favorite of the new canon I've read, but I've not read a lot of it. Was audiobooking them as they came out until CoH came back and cut into my mindless puzzle game time 😀. The Thrawns are the only ones I've read since. They aren't as good as I remember the original Thrawn trilogy being but I've also not read that since I was a teen, so no idea about actual quality.

Re Brainy Smurf a lot of this is covered in the newer book trilogy.

One thing i noticed in this last ep is how ridiculous the ISB's pants are for spies. Sure these are the desk spies but could you imagine trying to follow someone quietly without knocking over everything in your path with those things Dedra had on?

The intro to ep 9 was worth the price of admission.

When that Mando ep came out I very nearly reinstalled SWTOR to compare the game area to the show. fortunately the innertubes had some screenshots to save me from myself. Also I've decided Doctor Quadpaw needs a spin-off where we learn the story of how his speculum-free gynecology practice was all the rage on Coruscant in the latter days of the Republic before the Empire's anti-alien policies forced him underground.

I've not, but I'm going to assume it was one of the writers' main on Virtue.

Doctor Quadpaws. That is all.

I thought it was ok. Was glad it wasn't their usual-of-late dad joke overload but it wasn't anything particularly stellar. Making the Man-Thing into Groot 2.0 was pretty lame.

I thought ep 5 was very good. The development in it actually feels like it has a point, unlike eps 1-3 which in retrospect seem more and more like they were glommed on to the real show because someone decided there should be an origin story.

I didn't mention it thinking it'd get bullet pointed but

Yay ep 4 was quite good. Idk how many viewers they lost from the first couple eps but at least there's a reward for slogging through them.

Meh, too contrived. And too little too late by that point in the slog.

Really hoping these eps were just prelude to a spy show as these bored the hell out of me as much as Boba's non-Mando episodes did.

About time? They just rebooted willow as Dr. Strange 2 this very year 😛

Do you have the frames limited to your monitor refresh rate? Might be churning out a billion fps just cuz it can. But of course it'd have done that before the update if that were the case.

You really needed a name drop to confirm

Someone was fooling around and switched her boots for the Mego Joker's.

Without a knowledge of the precise cause I'd not be so hasty to rule out naked goth bottling. Don't want to burn any nosological bridges.

Second ep was much better and more like what I was expecting. There's another mid-credits btw.

I found it very boring, which could be due to the high volume of period piece things i watch. I'd keep it and just pretend it was one of those were it not that I wince every time either of the leads are on-screen. I'll give it another week or two.

To be faaaiiiihhh, she wasn't claiming high levels of trauma, just showing that she's used to dealing with the anger she has in a healthy way. It was Bruce who expected her to have his extreme levels of anger without having had the extreme experiences.
