Hope that level of viewership is sustained all the way to the end.

I feel like it could go up. I imagine there are a ton of people out there who are holding off on subscribing until Vol. 2 comes out.

 

[squeekness]

Up is even better.

It's called subtext.

Remember Netflix counts 2 views per account, so it's actually 29.8 million.

A bit skewed as Im the only one watching it in my house.

 

[DyeLorean]

Really weird measurements.

[Still Wynning]

It’s pretty apparent.

Episode 4 was pure adrenaline. I’ve oscillated between really enjoying this season and being a bit whelmed. Some of the needless CGI/cinematography took me out of it, but there’s plenty of great scenes that reel me back in.

That's way too specific to be a coincidence. It had to be an easter egg homage.

 

[squeekness]

Wow, I missed that one. Good catch!

You would think she would get tired of the whole tickling blood drop from her nose, lol.

 

[Sawyer]

I’m inclined to agree.

What do care bears have to do with the show???

 

[Still Wynning]

Well, the Care Bears had the Care Bear Stare, an attack which they used to defeat the enemy by holding hands together and combining their powers. Maybe whatever psionic attack our psychic heroes perform requires them joining or putting their powers together in some way to finally defeat Vecna and the Mind Flayer.

I can buy that. Just hard for someone like me who didn't watch care bears to get it.
