so we missed it when it started and are playing catch-up. one episode to go but man, is it just me or is this one of the best series in recent memory?

great acting - best direction. the thing i’m most stumped by is that there’s only 4 seasons. can completely see at least another season here right?

    Honestly I think it’s good where they left it. No spoilers, but it’s a satisfying arc for who ends up on top, and I feel like that last evening with the siblings and then the board meeting the next day was the perfect encapsulation of their whole relationship.

      For me it’s not that I don’t particularly like the characters. I thought they were well written and it was possible to sympathise with them at certain times, despite them doing awful things.

      My problem with this show, and previously In The Thick of It, is that watching people being mean to each other in a workplace environment gives me a fight/flight response 🫣 I’m sure it’s a great show with great writing etc but I’m gonna stick with rewatching The Office. I’ve gone through enough workplace stress in my life, I don’t need to sit through an extra hour of it a week during my leisure time!
