The curse of the 8th decade is a mysterious and almost biblical prophecy but with a material reality, countries sometimes don't last past the 8th decade of their existence, but why?
Bears have been spotted near schools, train stations, supermarkets and even a hot springs resort, with almost daily reports of attacks across Japan, primarily in the north. Since April, over 100 people have been injured and at least 12 killed in bear attacks throughout Japan, as per Environment Ministry statistics from the end of October.
"Every day, bears intrude into residential areas in the region and their impact is expanding," Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary Fumitoshi Sato informed reporters. "Responses to the bear problem are an urgent matter."
I agree @simmerskool.I loved Killing Eve, Season 1 excellent, IIRC Season 2 still very good..., but by its final Season the writing and the story fizzled, or that's how I remember it.![]()
when I gap in tv (youtube) watching, I'll revisit season 1 too.I agree @simmerskool.
Last year, I finally decided to watch an episode of Killing Eve Season 1 when I saw it on Netflix when my brother CC was visiting.
I had seen comments online about it that suggested that people who liked the BBC TV show Luther, especially those who liked the character Alice Morgan, would probably also like Killing Eve.
Killing Eve Season 1 caught me by surprise.
I somewhat did not expect to like it.
But it kept my attention and I ended up almost binge-watching all three seasons, and it was probably my favorite TV show of last year.
Season 1 was probably the best, Season 2 was probably still good enough but not as much as Season 1, and Season 3 started to go off the rails & I did not like how it ended.
I still liked the TV show overall, enough that I started watching it again, I am still on Season 1.
Thank you for reminding me that I need to make a review for Season 2 and Season 3.![]()
I forgot Season 4 and that it was the last season, that is where it really went off the rails.I loved Killing Eve, Season 1 excellent, IIRC Season 2 still very good..., but by its final Season the writing and the story fizzled, or that's how I remember it.![]()
doubled-checked my memory, my bad! I guess s3 was good enough for me to watch s4, I just recalled it ended poorly. IMO good writing can save mediocre acting but great actors cannot save bad writing. Odd that such a well-liked, well-written, got reduced to crappy in the end. I forget what happened, why Waller-Bridge left...I forgot Season 4 and that it was the last season, that is where it really went off the rails.
The other seasons probably took a somewhat downward dip each season.
While I did not like the ending, and it hurt the show, it still was not as bad as how Game Of Thrones ended.
I wish that Phoebe Waller-Bridge would have stayed the head writer et cetera each season to see how she would have handled the other seasons since she handled season 1 well.
I asked chatGPT 5.1 and it said that was the way Killing Eve was originally planned, that Waller-Bridge would only do s1, then new head writer every season. It did not workout as intended IMO.I forget what happened, why Waller-Bridge left...
