It absolutely works like that.

Snowpiercer was worse.

You are obsessed with the American version of seasons, let it be more flexible, like the European version.

Or the walking dead variants, the characters aren't in all of them, it's like that, make it 2 series, wool with what's her face, and the silo with the others.

Meh, it's going.

I might do the rest at once, it's about setting up a link between the two first (wireguard etc), then bringing servers over and up.

What terrifies me is trying to move my monitors, those are massive and beautiful with 0 room for error.

Used metal carriers with foam inserts for storage, but the balance is still back home.

Fiber in Europe is glorious, so that helps.

Trying to move my fully populated 42u rack to Europe.

So far been doing it piecemeal, but that will have to accelerate at some point.

I could not even get 50 pages in, i rarely have that much trouble but it felt like it was trying to discourage me from reading.

And?

They had other characters there, it built tension, but finally, HAVE SEASONS WITH LESS OF A BREAK!!!

Season 2 could have been cheaper without Reverend mother Juliet, it could have been a half season with all these supporting characters we otherwise don't care about, and the 4 episodes could have ended with a teaser that she was alive.

They're throwing so much bullshit at the wall while trying to make it 'prestige', that it takes years and we stop caring about the characters and plot.

Slow horses is the opposite of this, short, cheap seasons, but more frequent so you enjoy the plot progression.

Great, I agree.

But how do you know?

Whats the difference between normal, violent racism of your worthless trash, and right wing hate inspired by Russian trolls to divide the west?

I read the books, I don't think it was quite this unfilmable.

I mean, ok.

It was achingly slow, and not in a 'slow burn' kind of way, but in a 'we need to drag this shit out because we don't have anything left after the questions are answered kind of way.

This is the TV version of a meeting that could have been an email, but more like a slack chat.

It seems like they just completely forgot to write characters, and every single time I see common I'm hoping to hell he has one of those horrible deaths where everybody cheers.

Apathetic in the large scale, but very warm and friendly at the smaller one.

I lived in the American South, I find this to be much more to my liking as the smiling faces seem less likely to be covering deep, hateful racism looking for an excuse to resort to violence.
