It&#8217;s even more ridiculous that I&#8217;ve never seen it because my cousin was ON it, dominating a huge plot-line in Season 4. But what can I say. I have so many family members in Show Biz, I can&#8217;t see EVERYthing. Nevertheless, I finally caught up with it. Binge-watched it like a madwoman during the terrible month of January. Probably within the first 10 minutes of the pilot, not much longer, I realized, &#8220;Oh. Okay. This is what the fuss was all about.&#8221; It was immediately apparent. And since my OTHER show is currently rating a D average, I needed something to fill that void. I just completed it yesterday. I am in love with it. I found the whole thing &#8211; the DIALOGUE, the CHARACTERS, the complexity &#8211; pleasurable to an almost incapacitating degree. Hence, the gif of Tim above. (One of my favorite characters. Dolly Parton! Fantasy graphic novels! Sigourney Weaver&#8217;s thighs! What??) And boy, that ending &#8230; that final scene &#8230; Don&#8217;t have time to write more than that but wanted to put up an open thread for discussion. A couple of you I know have just started watching it. A couple of you were fans during its airing. So we&#8217;re all at different stages of it. <\/p>\n<p>Not sure how to handle spoilers in the comments. Let&#8217;s just say &#8230; if you&#8217;re going to discuss a plot point, shout SPOILERS in all caps beforehand and so those of you still catching up know to skip that part. <\/p>\n<p>Why is it so good?<br \/>\nWhy do you love it?<br \/>\nFavorite character?<br \/>\nFavorite\/least favorite season?<br \/>\nAnd etc.<\/p>\n<p>Have at it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, it&#8217;s over now, but no time like the present.
