[poebrey]

rewatching disco has been a gift because knowing what happens in the overarching plot means I get to stop being mad at different thematic issues and stop and appreciate every episode individually for what they are and some of the go so much harder when I’m not sitting around mad that Michael still isn’t captain or we’re on the 7th consecutive episode of no real mystery resolution or there’s yet another interpersonal conflict that’s mildly uncomfortable to watch

#have I made this post before? #new eden is an easy episode to like because it’s so self-contained #meanwhile project daedalus and unification iii I did not like and found difficult to watch #one for obvious reasons the other because it wasn’t what I wanted it to be #and it wasn’t until after such sweet sorrow that I could go back and appreciate the former #and not until a few episodes into s4 that I so at peace with where they were going with michaels character that i liked all of u3 #and don’t even get me started on there is a tide #I keep seeing people reassuring new watchers that you sort of have to just get through s1 if you find it too heavy #and like s4 does not feel as earned unless you watch everyone eat shit for the first 2 seasons #it isn’t the therapy and feelings ship until after everyone on board gets ptsd lol
