Season 2, Episode 6
10/10
ORIGINAL like never before!

We will look back at this episode as a pivot point never before seen on television or probably elsewhere. I'm sure in some Sci-fi novel this kinda thing has happened, but never on TV, never.

I thought Mr R jumped shark and like some gave up on this show. People lack faith. We are all guilty of lacking faith. Ballsy? Oh yeah. Original. Yup! Deep and over most of the heads watching? Probably. This kinda stuff is something we, no me, feels. Best way I can explain it is watching a drummer play jazz and then for no reason at all play a rock beat. It makes no sense at first, but it is done just to do it.

Psychologically (and I need to be brief here) what happened the first 15 minutes was something a great therapist might try (there are so few great ones so they won't get it) and that is to alter reality when reality doesn't work. To get out of head, to shift a paradigm so deeply it refreshes and reboots the system. Get it now? You need to get it because life will crash down on you. When it does, can you reboot? Can you? Can you? Can you? Oh...drinking another beer isn't what I mean. Watching more porn isn't what I mean. Going into fantasy isn't what I mean.

the end.
