Pluribus (with spoilers)

Looks like we did it 13 years ago. Late September, 2012.



I think we hit most of those. I don't recall the pickup point or The Grove (though we might have gone to those). We also visited the laundry and the FBI building where Hank worked. Maybe some other places as well that aren't coming to mind at the moment. Oh yeah, we saw the building where Saul worked, though it was hard to recognize. Twisters was fun. I was excited to eat there and it was absolutely... ok. Nothing special, but it filled the belly.

I brought some home for my friends as well. I still have mine somewhere. I couldn't bring myself to eat it. It was too cool to eat. It's not like I can't find sugary candy in a bazillion other places.

Cool! I couldn't eat much of mine, either, though I had a taste.

The hotel we stayed at was the Parq Central, which used to be a psychiatric facility. I just looked at the map, and I see that it was only a block or so from The Grove. Interestingly, I also noticed that the street next to the cafe is Walter St, which would be a funny coincidence unless it was changed because of the show.

The hotel we stayed at was my wife's son's apartment. It was tiny, cramped and not much in the way of amenities. But it was cheap!

Her son and his wife still live down there. And her daughter is getting ready to move back next month to be with her boyfriend.

Episode 9 dropped tonight, so no need to wait until Thursday. Only one more to go in season 1.

Tonight’s was the season finale.

Tonight’s was the season finale.

Dang, you’re right. I had read that there were 10 episodes. Since this one was #9, I was expecting another.

The good news about the finale: I loved it. No guarantee that y’all will, but my wife and I did.

Medium news: It took an interesting turn and ended in a cliffhanger.

Bad news: We may not see season 2 until late 2027 or even 2028. That’s incredibly frustrating for us viewers, especially in my demographic.

Since they gave it a two season order up front, I would hope the second season won’t take quite that long. But if it does, it will give me a good excuse to rewatch the first season later.

First season reminded me a lot of the first season of BCS. A lot of character work to set up the actual plot, which comes later.
