@vga256 @ThreeOhFour Thanks for sharing this! Had no idea there was a short that preceded that marvelous series (which I’ve watched end to end at least twice now). What the hell were Max and now Netflix thinking NOT renewing it for a second season!? And both have raised their prices on me how many times lately?
@halfpress it's interesting how much the emotional tone and story changed between the short and the series. i've been saying for years that it's the only good thing hbo has broadcast in the past 5 years. i just wish they'd at *least* release a bluray.

@vga256 The same company that touted MAX as the comprehensive home of the Looney Tunes collection, then whacked it all. Why?!

Yeah, a tone change, but unquestionably the same creative DNA. Not quite as visually lush as the full series, but no less captivating. I appreciated the pacing of the series… brooding and not afraid to hold a shot. Patently the opposite of the exhausting pace of YouTube content where people jump cut every single breathe or pause so it’s one big run on sentence.
