Can they possibly do another season? Cause this was genius
The creators said in interviews that they have an outline for a season 2 with the 2 characters coming back to a different school trying to solve a case.

As for season 1 I LOVED it :bryan:

When I watched the trailer I legit :russ: because I legit thought it was a parody.

But when I found out it really was a series :mjlol:

When the show went on I was getting drawn in more and more to the whole mystery of it and the amount of details they went into all the characters.

And the fact that with every suspect all his theories made sense like “:ohhh: yeah they did it!!”

But obviously it was
Christia

Especially during the interview when she was giving Peter that blank stare with vague answers and everytime you thought she was going to break she just kept it :aicmon:

I saw a deeper and more abstract philosophical meaning behind the show. The show is basically a representation of the shortcomings of reasoning and the powerful effects this has on everything. Our conclusions are only good as

1.) Our assumptions
2.) The information we have
3.) The information we can obtain
4.) The information we pay attention to and the information that we ignore
5.) Our perception of the information that we have, can obtain, pay attention to and do not pay attention to

All of these things are muddied by explicit and implicit biases. habits of mind, and uncontrollable factors that influence the information that we work with.

In general our minds can gather evidence to try and support just about anything. Just because a theory has evidence to support it, no matter how overwhelming or convincing, does not mean the theory is true or accurate.

The documentary kid with the glasses came to this realization at the end of the season.

And this is why I said the writing gets a lot deeper. Great analysis.

Just started watching this is absolutely brilliant. I saw the trailer a while ago and thought it was just a parody trailer of those documentaries. Come to find out it's a full length show. This is legendary.

It's like The Night Of, but with dikks.
I just finished the Night Of last week so watching this now it's just so good.
