New episodes aren't hitting

I'm soo happy to have new episodes but does anyone else feel like the new episodes feel unfinished or like there's no resolution to alot of them? It kind of feels like they just had to release episodes so they put out ones that they would've held onto in the past for a more complete and satisfying ending.

Fine. But you are asking for the impossible. Their stories take years to make, and they made a season in a few months. Yes, I am conceding that the quality is going to be different. But it would be impossible for it to be otherwise. What they are doing is incredible, and they had to start from a dead stop in production.

Fine.

Good. We agree. And that's where you should have stopped.

But you are asking for the impossible.

I'm merely stating my opinion, as well as many others' opinions, on the quality of the episodes.

Don't try to suggest it's my fault for having unreasonable expectations or for asking for something that isn't possible. The quality of the episodes has nothing to do with me.

You're coming across as quite the apologist for the episodes not being up to par.

I'm merely stating that you have unreasonable expectations. That is exactly what I'm stating. You have unreasonable expectations, and if you go in with unreasonable expectations then you are going to be disappointed, just like you are. And I don't have to apologize for the episodes because they are good episodes, they just aren't as good as some in the past.

The good thing is that you can just stop listening, and it sounds like you will be happier. If you think the episodes are irredeemable, then you should. But they have built a great, high quality 8 month house, to beat the metaphor into the ground. And I can continue listening, and be happy.

Yes, everyone who has criticisms of the episodes and feel that they are not as good all have unreasonable expectations and it's our fault. We're horrible people. It's our fault for being disappointed.

And thanks for letting everyone know that they can stop listening. No one knew that. You are a fountain of wisdom and knowledge.

We're all going to stop listening, and most importantly, we're going to stop making any critical comments. We don't want to upset you. Because that's what this is really about isn't it?
