6. ep 4: Sasha (Uzo Aduba)
thought i wouldve liked this one more than i did (i mean duh dont we all feel like this). but the concepts were there i just think the writing was too over the top. it doesnt have the subtly of other episodes.
7. ep 6: Nera (Nicole Beharie)
felt too black mirror-y. with a show like this mostly about loneliness/connections and having the only true connection at the very end for 30 secs it wasnt at all satisfactory.
the first 3 were really great but the last 4 were too black mirror. it hard not to compare these 2 shows but the first 3 didnt have these giant dark plot twist (dark being the key word) in them and it felt so lovely just watching people act their hearts out and talking about longing. the last 3 though, greatly acted, but these dark twists just set a block between me and their characters.
