s2 is insanely good television. just watch it.

Yep. Much less yelling, and you get episodes like Forks that are slower, quieter, and develop a great character arc.
But Fishes will make you clench from beginning to end.


I didn’t love Season 3 but Season 2 is perfection. “Fishes” gets a lot of love but “Forks” is the best episode of TV I saw in 2023. Phenomenal.

I have never seen insanity like I did in Fishes. Always expected the uplifting cheerful conclusion but it just went more crazy. Talk about subverting your expectations. 

Shame on me not even noticing it was JLC til the end with the face to face with Carmy.

Y’all are fortunate. Every single damned Christmas gathering was packed with tension after I hit junior high. 

My grandmother was a JLC type. She wouldn’t drive her car through the living room, but she took bad news very poorly. Usually sobbing and the worst guilt trip you can imagine. The family would usually wait until the last few minutes of the Christmas gathering and tell her bad news. Almost always people moving 

Again, this show speaks to me like few others can.

Anticipating S4 as my kid is in a scene with Carmy as an extra. My buddy owns as busy a restaurant as I've ever seen and as a spectator fan I will sit by the kitchen waiting on food and watch 20 staff bounce around like seemingly chaotic maniacs, plus I have a huge crush on one of his managers (she looks like Emmy Rossum from Shameless).

She tells me she watches The Bear to calm her nerves.
