  • I just don’t see how coming back to the setup of the first season would be a good idea. It was a masterpiece, I love it, but where could it actually go? I feel like it’s just going to be yet another of the masses of mostly badly done remakes and reboots at the moment cos the TV and Film industries are struggling with original ideas and have for a long while now

    Also obviously I don’t know if they’ll do the same kinda vibe as the first season but I’m not sure if it would go over well these days? Like the darkness of it, sure, and the philosophical pessimism could to an extent but if they do it as it was in the first season I think it’d just come across edgelordy and a bit cringe nowadays. Especially seeing as it really didn’t do female characters well at all, they were mostly just there to “get in the men’s way” or want their dick. I could see it getting labeled as “the incel show”

    Wow fair enough, I’ve heard so many do it. Obviously I don’t know your background but I think maybe it’s because I grew up and have spent a fair bit of my adult life in the northern countryside? The non-White English demographic round my home region is very low. And I’ve never met a Spaniard or Latin person around there either, I’m pretty sure. Just a theory, anyways

    I should make clear by the way that I didn’t think every person from the UK does this. I realise it might have come across that way now

    Ok fair enough, I take back my comment and I’m sorry for it. I was talking more from a “getting each ingredient individually is cheaper and then you can make more later” perspective, rather than a “you’d get way more for your one meal” perspective. But I understand what you mean and I see I was wrong to tar everyone with the same brush. Which isn’t something you should do ever

    As someone who grew up in a family that would just buy something like this because they don’t consider they can just get everything cheaper otherwise, and pronounces so many Spanish words cringely wrong and refuses to change when corrected, I guess all I could see was a load of people just like them lol
