    Bro the discourse around this s*** is so stupid because the ones crying are obviously angry about it not being not being American slop and than turning around and trying to act like that’s not why they are mad

    Yall are addicted to the word slop

    manousos almost died, had to be lifted to a hospital by the hive, carol gave in and tried to kill herself, she asked them to come back and reunited with zosia... a lot happened. we got some slow montage scenery scenes of manousos adventure and carol doing I Am Legend s*** for like 20 mins. the intention is not to "bore" the audience he's assuming people have some patience and enjoy the slow burn. we already know next episode is plot heavy from the description, I want to live in the world with the characters for a little bit, why is that inherently "dreadful" and "boring" unless you have low tolerance for this kind of pacing & worldbuilding

    Also, the fact that it isn’t dialogue-heavy doesn’t mean we aren’t being given characterization. For instance, Manousos is so utterly convinced he’ll reverse the effects of the hivemind and “save the world” that he leaves money behind for the gas he took - because he genuinely believes things will return to normal, and those individuals deserve be paid

    The show doesnt have a large cast, it's really just 4 actual characters so it feels pretty empty. There's extended moments of no dialouge. The overall plot doesnt move forward that much per episode. The show is pretty slow paced and I can get why people might not fw that.

    But I feel like the slow burn is just Vince style and it'll pay off. It might be more exaggerated here because the cast is small. But I appreciate and enjoy all the world building and visual storytelling elements going on like these little moments in this season that people might think are boring or insignificant can become something larger in the future. Thats just how vince does things.

    Like I can see this show being extremely rewarding upon rewatch after the season or show is over.

    I agree with all of this and an adverse reaction to some not loving it outright isn’t necessarily. It’s a shoe that can bring feelings of being alone , depression or isolation

    Carol does take a penny leave a penny because she still wants to believe in the value of community and unity .
