If you take out the filler in a story then it's just full of gaps.
genuinely one of the worst things that’s happened to television in the last few years (exacerbated by streaming services) is death of Filler. going from 20 episodes to 8 because “we didn’t really need that episode where the main characters went to the beach right? it had no long lasting effect” but we DID!!! we needed to see how they act without the Big Bad Plot and to establish the dynamics between the characters and lay in the sun (do they forget sunscreen? how do they react to a thieving seagull? do they get buried in the sand or do they do the burying?). the plot isn’t everything. the action doesn’t hit as hard without the quiet moments. give us character development and our little scenes back
honestly I think Andrew is just weird. i think his brain just never shuts off, and he's always thinking bizarre thoughts. being off the meds gives him a filter, that's all. it's not like the medication created those weird thoughts for him, it just caused him to voice them. as neil and andrew spend more time alone together, he becomes more comfortable just speaking his thoughts out loud to neil. at first he was like "andrew wtf" but now he's just unphased. see:
andrew: do you think mermaid tails are a gradient or a direct cutoff
neil: what
andrew: at what point when you're eating a mermaid does it stop being sushi and become cannibalism
neil:
anyway andrew is just a little freak and i love him
People trying to pathologize like eating sweets and jerking off is wild. "I stopped doing this thing that feels good and I want more now ?? So this is an addiction and I have to keep avoiding it until the craving goes away" no you just want to enjoy things because you're a human being. Chocolate and porn and whatever aren't, like. Meth. It won't kill you to feel good. You don't have to be a medieval monk
One of my biggest pet peeves that 19th century is the 1800's, 20th is 1900's and 21st century is 2000's. But since I know why it is it makes me feel insane for being annoyed about it
