how does the latest season compare to the first? it's probably my favorite bit of television ive ever watched, but season 2 was so embarrassing i never finished it. i tried with s3 and got bored. but that first one man... i'll give this a go either way because it seems great but im interested to know what people who are fans of the first season think. im glad nic the big baby is crying in a corner somewhere rn.
Gonna be honest, season 1 is maybe the best 8 hours of tv you could watch IMO, and season 4 is nowhere near the same caliber. It’s not terrible, but it’s pretty clumsy at certain points. Overall I liked how it concluded so if you go in without expectations you’ll probably have a good time.
thank you! i suspected as much, but im also looking forward to checking this out. season 1 seems to be near impossible to get close to, even for the creator lol.
tbh if it didn’t have jodie foster it wouldn’t have been made lol. imo anyway, but also, season 1 is one of my favorite things ever and i have rewatched many times, i love it that much. didn’t fuck with season 2 or 3, but watched all of season 4. i enjoyed the setting, scene, the heavy female cast, and the indigenous themes/representation. they had a beautiful midwifery scene, and the woman giving birth was surrounded by other women throat singing and it was amazing, it made me cry and beam with joy and was just really beautiful. AND i also enjoyed the ~reveal scene

thank you for this thorough review! its weird because i could have almost guessed most of what youre saying and i have 0 clue about anything at all regarding this season. i just doubted that you can walk into someones set up universe and make it fresh and interesting and still somehow cohesive. and the fact that i keep hearing that they ~allude to s1 has worried me, because it feels like it'll be a rehash of the Top Moments and that doesnt bode well for a focused new plot
