Local woman Brittany Williams is today copping some nagging from her mate when it was revealed for the fifth time that no, she hadn’t watched that show yet.
Not that her mate was doing the best job of describing it, citing that ‘it gets really good’ after a few seasons, you just have to sit through it.
This is also the same mate who suggested watching Black Mirror, but not by starting with the first episode i.e. the one where a prime minister fornicates with a pig.
Which is fair enough, given that the first three seasons of Black Mirror are terrific and it’s an odd choice by the showrunners to pick that one as a pilot.
As usual, her mate has taken the few courteous nods as encouragement, leading to a long winded explanation of why Brittany should waste twenty odd hours of his life to get to the good stuff.
“Honestly you’ll love it, you just need to wait it out a bit and then it gets really good, promise.”
“It’s kind of like how the first season of The Office sucked but the rest of it is brilliant, I swear.”
“It’s a bit slow but it’s important to learn about the characters, it all makes sense at the end.”
Nodding as she agrees yet again that she’ll give it a go, Blake doesn’t have to heart to admit to hers mate that she still hasn’t gotten over wasting nine years of her life on Game of Thrones and can’t see herself ever committing to a show again in fear of another dumpster fire ending.
More to come.
