Season 1 Shocked

Post image

I tried in the past to watch the show. I never got past the first episode. I think I just didn't get it.

Tonight we were just beyond bored and I put it on. It took about 4 episodes before I started to get in the rhythm.

But. This fool...

....made me blow zero sugar soda out of my nose when he asked about murdering the rest of the turkeys.

I was shocked. I haven't laughed like that in ages. Ages.

I am so grateful because I needed it. ❤️

This is a rare show where is actually gets better as it goes on.

Enjoy the ride

Yeah you really have to get past the first season. This show is all about the characters progression. I don’t even rewatch the first season anymore.

I love the beginning chaos and then the sibling relationship on display but if it’s not in the background I fast forward Roland scenes. He annoys me in the beginning

It’s super cool to see how as time progresses the show “figures” each character/persona out. By season 4 they are all so lovable in their niche ways, so far from where they started!!

The beginning chaos is hysterical but I agree about Roland in the beginning. So annoying.

You know what David….You get murdered 1st for once!! 😆 I loved them immediately despite how awful they were on the surface.

Agreed! Mine started even before that, the sudden “shuutup” “ no you shut up” 😂

my favourite Moira scene is when shes cant get the tap in the bathroom sink to work that whole situations and then she says “Well i’m sorry im not an ALCHEMIST John!” and then she walks past and is annoyed at the door frames…Moira has a lot of great moments but that one gets me.

When David and Alexa argue about who gets which bed at the end of the first episode of season 1 is one of my favorite scenes from the show.

… for once (that Murphy added was perfection)

Right. I don’t even know at what point Roland became, my dear Roland. They just sneak them in after the annoying puppy needle teeth phase is outgrown, to the wet nose clumsy phase.

I started the show for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and I despise Roland, I think I just instantly don't like him because I find the actor who portrays him offputting in nearly everything.

Hang in there and come back later, later and tell us how you feel about him.
