Pacing was a little clunky but I otherwise liked the episode.

Was a decent thread-tie, but definitely clunky.

I enjoyed this episode. Although, as a non-american I don’t fully understand the reference to the honey candy. Is it just that it is very sticky?
Show threadlhxAug 3, 2023
Yeah. So sticky it would pull out fillings and the like. Called Bit O Honey.

As an American, I didn’t get it either.

I wasn’t too impressed with episode one, it felt very tired, and too self congratulatory.

How does ep 2 compare to ep 1?

I disagree. I think the constant self-congratulations were brilliant in rubbing it into all the darn nay-saying media executives. And when coupled with their constant self-degradation; it was chefs-kiss.

For me no.2 one was a bit of an uneven ride starting with the brilliant idea of 20-years-long plot connection but then spoiled with too much random stuff leading nowhere.

Nice tie in to season 5. So far I’m liking the new season and I enjoyed Kif being a bad ass
