Not bad not great

[AfricanBro · 7/10 · 18 August 2021]

I liked the last episode, this episode, it just didn't have the magical fairy stuff that I wanted to feel but it was a good way to end the season. I just wish I got more from the previous episodes because I didn't come into this one with high hopes.

Season two is just... not what I expected, even though I tried keeping my expectations in check. It's not bad, but it's just not season 1. Season one was gripping, I fell in love with almost, if not every character in each episode. It felt like every episode peaked, while this season felt a bit anticlimactic for the most part. Season one was immaculate and it almost feels unfair to expect them to best it.

Down to earth but a little boring

I like how the story is realistic. Nothing is sugar coated. It just lacks the excitement I craved for. But I guess that's life. It's not always exciting.

I sobbed

This was a beautiful episode, the character development over a 33 minute story arc was stellar.

But how?

A good writer uses everything - no dialogue is wasted - only that which adds to the story is used.

What if we did that in life as well?

The best way to finish the season

I love this episode. I can connect with both characters, something that didn't happen with other episodes in this season. I love how Tobias Menzies plays his roll and how the story develops. If you want to skip some episodes, please, don't skip this one. I have to say this season was bad, only 3 or maybe 4 episodes are worth to watch, but don't miss this one!

Second chances and hope

My favorite episode this season. It's so beautiful and I felt so moved by it having breast cancer myself. Sophie Okonedo and Tobias Menzies are simply brilliant.

Brilliant!!!

I don't have the words to give this episode justice. Don't miss this one! Brilliant season end with two powerhouse actors and lovely supporting cast. The chemistry between the two couldn't have been better to carry this storyline. I giggled watching Tobias Menzies morning run and sobbed through the end credits and so many feels in between.

Tobias perfect as always

I've been in love with this actor and his performances long before Game of Thrones and The Crown. In this touching portrayal he was perfectly balanced by Sophie Okendo. I'll admit it, I cried tears of compassion for their characters' dilemma.
