K-dramas are trending now, it's been that case since last few years where everything Korean is getting mainstream attention.

What happens after this Korean wave settles down? They need original shows or just finish whatever shit they have started. You need to build a cache with the audience.

While I enjoyed s1 of shadow and bone, S2 started kinda slow and I am reluctant to finish it because if Netflix cancels it, I have wasted my time and investment.

Malcolm in the Middle and Breaking Bad exist in the same universe, via the X-files, leaving us with not one, not two, but three distinct Bryans Cranston occupying a very small region of the fiction omniverse. Except Breaking Bad is also a dream within Malcolm in the Middle... which is itself all part of some other kid's dream!

kid writes some damn good teevee though, I'll give him that

And for the price that it takes for Netflix to greenlight, write, film, produce, edit, air and then cancel a new show; how many more Kdramas could they get dubbed? 10? 20? All of the ones they have currently available? I'm a slow reader with again eyes. So I need the biggest caption size. So with that and all the reading, I miss a lot of what is going on on screen. Specially the acting.

Or at the very least add an icon to the title picture for which ones are dubbed. That way I dont have to click into each show and scroll to the audio section to see if it has english. And/or even show in the description when the DUB is coming. I know the Dub for season 2 of Alchemy of Souls is coming (hell the preview is already dubbed) I just don't know when, and I'm tired of checking every day.

They did not capture the horror thriller or apocalyptic elements of the story that made their journey feel so dangerous. In the game they are pushed to the limits and that experience makes their bond so much stronger.

The danger, outside of the first clicker and the one swarm with the bloater, comes almost entirely from the other very few humans in the show. That is not in balance with the game. As a result Joel saving Ellie at the hospital didn’t have the same emotional effect the game had.

The Last of Us is a zombie show lmao. Like, that's the whole point of the vaccine. If the world is not dangerous, why civilization couldn't thrive?

The infected barely feel like a threat 90% of the time so a cure feels a lot less urgent. If they had invented it, they'd still be dealing with almost everything they're dealing with now.
