THE [email protected] 2017

Average episode rating: 8.0

I started this show in late 2017, and continued through episode 22 in early 2018 before taking a five-year pause. There's honestly no good reason for that. Initially I held off on the last two episodes so I could watch them together with a colleague (we were both in a community theater production, and this would have filled the time between performances on our double-show Saturday). There were several reasons for that plan not working out, unfortunately, but I kept waiting like an idiot.

Meanwhile, for most of the last five years, one of the insert songs has been my default alarm ringtone—across two phones. Thrice during the last episode, I looked at my phone wondering what alarm I'd forgotten about setting. :joy_cat: (That song was used a lot in the finale.)

Having finally finished the series, I wish I remembered the plot details better. The wrap-up leaned heavily on certain characters getting "big reveals" that the audience already knew, so the show skipped over the actual information to avoid annoying viewers with old information. If I need to fill 18 hours sometime, I'll consider rewatching.
