Genuinely surprised at the hate this show got. It was definitely in my top 10 seasons of last year.

It wasn't perfect, of course. I found the "Mordor" text reveal super jarring and out of place. I thought the first episode and the finale were weaker than the rest of the season.

But overall I found it really beautiful, exciting, and different!

You seriously think this is a "drama superhero show" ???

I thought it was pretty great. The 4th-wall breaking, "oh look a big set piece, I wonder if we'll get a big red hulk or some shoe-horned action set piece" only for it to be insecure men wanting to take her down a peg by slutshaming her publicly. Went right in line with the themes the show has been showing you all along. Subverted the expectation that she'd have a big CGI final battle of some sort.

I get the criticism, but this is the show you've been watching all along.
