Machete 10/16/19 9:13:33 PM #1:	I watched from the beginning because it seemed like an interesting premise but the show faded in season one and faded worse in season 2. Didn't even remember much about the end of season 2 when I found out Netflix picked it up for a 3rd season. Binged that and actually really liked it. Definitely biased on the centrist angle because the far right was made to look like shit while the far left was basically just footnotes. Can't say the current political climate is much different though lol. All in all I thought the show was dead after disappearing off network TV but I was impressed by where Netflix went with it. --- https://talktotransformer.com The Internet is kind of the whole ****ing Internet. <cite>Machete posted [p:928862677] in Anyone els...

Might go back and watch it someday. --- Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame <cite>Shotgunnova posted [p:928862807] in Anyone els...

It gets really relevant to actual US current politics in season 3. Before that, it's just kinda meh and even after, there are lots of references to the first 2 seasons that feel like "oh hey let's not let watchers forget all this stuff but let's not have them think we're still doing that >_>" so I would personally recommend sticking with it if you do pick it back up but don't expect much until season 3. --- https://talktotransformer.com The Internet is kind of the whole ****ing Internet. <cite>Machete posted [p:928862918] in Anyone els...
