Just watched Episode 1 of new season. So glad it is back.

This is probably the best drama show in about a decade.

I loved that character. I don’t know if you know anyone with severe mental illness, but he nailed it!

Just finished bingeing all 7 episodes. A couple if slow parts but overall really good and I still love Jason Bateman. This season felt more Wendy-focused than anyone else. Ruth is amazing.

They don't quite - and they're not. She's 4 yrs older.

Too much time on Ben? My god he was the heart-blood of that season. I don't think this show is for you, buddy.

Right? So difficult to watch with all that darkness.


I did spend earlier seasons trying to adjust the brightness of the screen, but by now I have acclimated to the gloom. I also really like all the blue - painted walls, everyone's shirts etc.

Did you notice the directing credit was "Robin Wright" - I am assuming the actress...?


Actress/director -- I thought the episodes she directed were fantastic.

Ruth just breaks my heart. She has had such a hard life.

I had a “wtf” moment because I thought this season was coming to a terrible ending. Then, I googled it. There are seven more episodes dropping at a future date. They just finished filming in October 2021.

Yes, this. And Zeke is still a tiny baby.


Zeke aged a week (they are still supporting his head and neck) and Jonah is now 18


Jonah in the story, is 14


Yeah the issue is no time has passed in th storyline but the actor grew up in real life. Not much you can do about that unless you just replace him with a different actor with no explanation like Darren on Bewitched.


You could Chuck Cunningham him.
