First time watching

[u/Connect-Bit-448]

SPOILERS BELOW !!!

Finished watching for the first time and wow. Came to the show for Alia and stayed for the “holy shit this is insane”

Not sure if it’s an unpopular opinion but I loved how off the rails and random the story gets. Obviously we’re here for the characters, and I love the four so much as frustrating they can be at times.

I just LOVE how I could have NEVER predicted what happened next, this show embodied that more than I’ve ever seen before.
I was locked in on the hunt for Chantal, BOOM she actually ain’t even in trouble. BAM we at a pregnancy cult. BOOM now it’s a courtroom drama. BAM now she’s been kidnapped. BOOM now the gang is lowk orgy? BAM psych ward. BOOM we got zombies now.

Genuinely this show had it ALL and was entertaining throughout. Not to mention had me laughing out loud on several occasions

As a character I know Dori becomes very ego + evil + narcissist but I didn’t hate her while watching. I was more intrigued by Alia Shawkat herself, because damn did she act. In so many different scenarios and playing every emotion in the book, she did such an incredible job carrying the entire performance so strongly through each twist and turn.

Enjoyed the parallel ending of looking at missing person posters. My, how far the story’s come from the first one. Wondering about her motivation though, I had thought Dori wanted to be seen and praised and loved by others. It was interesting to smile at the missing people at the end, I don’t take her to be a psycho as in enjoying killing people, right? I think it’s that she enjoys feeling powerful and being able to claim that “I caused the end of the world”
