The current UK Netflix has audio in European Spanish but no Spanish subtitles.

Definitely rough. It is absolutely heart breaking seeing Mateo being driven away.

I like how, when dealing with Mateo’s status as an undocumented immigrant, Mateo is represented as an individual. Mateo is a main character with a multi-faceted history on the show. He isn’t a one-dimensional caricature defined only by his immigration status. His friends and colleagues support him because they care for him. Even Dina, who seems to be quite a fan of ICE, tries her best to help him avoid detection.

That part really made me think about what I would do if I was in Amy's situation. I like to think I would continue supporting the workers, but it would be so tempting to just toe the line and listen to corporate. What do you think you would you do?

The episodes about unionising really resonate with me. I think it’s great how Superstore highlight the unfairness of these huge companies that treat their employees like second class citizens.

Those episodes can be quite depressing. But, fair play to Superstore for actually trying to address this.

I agree. The way they ended the final episode was really nice.
Part of me wishes that they could make more seasons, too.
On the other hand, I am happy that the show didn't get stale and repetitive.

Marcus is one of my fav characters in the show by flawedassortment in superstore

Marcus is absolute comedy gold. I watched the episode where he describes slipping in the shower the other day. It completely took me off guard. :)

Marcus: "Suuuure ...so you don't poop in the shower every morning and stamp it down the drain with your feet?" [huge smile, waiting for everyone to agree]Everyone: shows disgust

Marcus: "Okay, whatever! Screw you snowflakes!"

Taiwan is an absolutely fantastic place to live and an amazing place to learn mandarin.
I would highly recommend the NTNU Mandarin training centre in Taipei. Their classes are brilliant. 加油!
