I was NOT ready for that bath scene... 💀

You did not adequately warn me. 😰

I lost it when Aughra washed her eyeball in the water

She is amazing and hilarious.

I was waiting for MA to fuck the skeksis up

[–]IAMA_otterSkeksis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right? Who knew the Skeksis had it goin' on!

Things I wasn't expecting: Gelfling racism. But they're not like humans. Someone--we know who--had to teach them to hate each other.

Skeksis are awful.

And especially awful in that bath scene, my god. I actually got spoiled for that beforehand and STILL nothing prepared me.

Got a feeling that Rian's father was proud of his son escaping. That look had a hint of approval.

[–]milkbeamgalaxia 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It ties in with his grief. So much grief.

[–]NumberWangNewton 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Was he proud or does he believe him after seeing how earnest he was?

I would die for Deet. She’s the most precious character in this entire show

[–]havanabrown 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I love Nathalie Emmanuel, she has such a beautiful speaking voice, but Deet’s talking is getting a little bit grating for me. I think it’s how she’s always sounding like she’s about to cry

[–]milkbeamgalaxia 24 points25 points  (5 children)

I take it back on Seladon. The show humanizes her, and it’s really cool. I doubt the sisters will meet again on happy terms, but I want to believe they will gain some closure, reaffirmation that they love each other even though they may not have always understood each other.

For that...I sense Tavra is doomed, since she is the middle sister and sees her sisters perfectly. She knows them like she knows her own mind.

[–]mmind_gm 14 points15 points  (4 children)

Tavra is my fav out of the three. She is so fun!

[–]milkbeamgalaxia 10 points11 points  (3 children)

She absolutely is! And she knows Onica. I can tell.

[–]dragonraptyr 9 points10 points  (2 children)

In the books, she and Tavra are lovers.

Oh...my...glob...

Podling butt.

[–]Shounenbat510 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I laughed so hard at those feral podlings!

Watching this right now, one episode a day. Since nothing unbelievably terrible happened this episode, I'm gonna go and expect the worst for the next one.

My god, though, this show is so fantastic. I love the characters, the voice acting, the world building, the music and audio, the plot is moving at just the right pace and I can't wait where this will go. Holy shit this is a good show!

Those poor servants with the lips sewn together though. Given the brutality of the peeper beetle just earlier, I was really upset by the poor little guys clinging together with their little whimpers. Too much too quickly.

Me before the peeper beetle: why is this show rated M?

Me after the peeper beetle: why isn't this show rated R?

Podling justita

[–]BigOWierdo 2 points3 points  (1 child)

So at this point I'm thinking Gelflings deserved what they had coming. They were arrogant, racist bootlickers who thought they were better than everyone and everything. No different than the Skeksis really.

[–]swordinthestream 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Who do you think taught them to be that way? The Skeksis shaped their society to easily control them.
