Finally got a chance to finish watching this, and man, what a fine series it is! It absolutely didn't disappoint. Just like its predecessor series was in the 80's, this is an instant classic!

Not sure what they have in mind for a new season, but I'll keep an open mind.
 
Not me. I won't be wasting my time.

I've finally learned my lesson from watching several one-season shows that were "extended" due to high ratings, and every single one of them was godawful.

Greed + laziness = terrible television.
 
One of the best actor on actor interviews I have ever seen.

He truly is a genius Loki S2 was freaking epic.

She truly is also a genius BUT OMG you will want to spend the rest of your life with her.

She is a perfect female.
She is a gorgeous.
Her voice is freaking angelic.
As a man gazing upon her beauty and elegance I am just blown away she truly takes your breath away, wow.

God created perfection with her, sheesh.

Sawai is physically stunning yeah ... I know a lot of actors and dated a couple over the years. To be honest I'm at a point where they turn me off.

As stereotypical as it sounds there's something all too self-conscious, contrived and occasionally narcissistic about the ones I've known well.

Don't get me wrong, I love beautiful women but I'm way more attracted to the athletic type; they seem more grounded and forthright in many ways. Just my experience talking here. Maybe I've just met a lot of bad or immature actors.
 
Yeah I think you probably have to be a bit full of yourself to become an actor, especially when you're constantly being asked to explain your "process". And the constant showering of praise and awards doesn't help either.

I will say Sawai does come across really sweet and humble in interviews though. And yeah she's freakin gorgeous in that Variety video.

The last one I dated was often really arrogant but at the same time suffering from low self-esteem. Her charm wore off very quickly.

Maybe it's a chicken or an egg question -- did the struggle in a brutal industry warp them, or does the profession attract a certain kind of broken person? Bit of column A, bit of column B?

Again, I can't paint every actor everywhere with the same brush without knowing them at all, but the ones I've got to know platonically or romantically are exhausting.
 
Finally got to finish this. Really liked the ending and how they brought all of the character arcs to a close. Not sure what else they will cover in Season 2 though.
