The Great Jahy #02 — Enjoying Privilege

August 7th, 2021

 

You are a boring and tedious character that consumed almost the entire episode.

Impressions:

I'm not sure if this episode was significantly worse than the first, or if I was just in a particularly forgiving mood last week. It's probably a bit of both. The entire episode is spent waiting for something… anything… to happen, and it just… doesn't. The introduction of this new girl, a delusional former servant and masochist, just keeps going on and on, repeating itself about how she's richer and more fortunate in the human world until sixteen minutes into the episode, it just abruptly stops. No real conflict between them is introduced. Neither character learns any lesson or attempts to do much more than snatch a magic rock that suddenly appears in front of them and then drops. It's all setup, no punchline or resolution.

Then with about a quarter of the episode left, it totally switches gears to futz around with birds in a tree in the rain. Five minutes for the punchline that she said she was in the wilderness, but was actually in her own backyard is not time efficiently spent. So if they're cutting way back on the T&A, the boinging boobs, and the silly faces, is this all the effort that they're going to be putting into the show from here out?
