Pacing was a little clunky but I otherwise liked the episode.

Was a decent thread-tie, but definitely clunky.

Nice tie in to season 5. So far I'm liking the new season and I enjoyed Kif being a bad ass

I wasn't too impressed with episode one, it felt very tired, and too self congratulatory.

How does ep 2 compare to ep 1?

[–] poopknife@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I disagree. I think the constant self-congratulations were brilliant in rubbing it into all the darn nay-saying media executives. And when coupled with their constant self-degradation; it was chefs-kiss.

For me no.2 one was a bit of an uneven ride starting with the brilliant idea of 20-years-long plot connection but then spoiled with too much random stuff leading nowhere.
