Que?

Did you expect to see more for $120 million? The Set design looks expensive to me.

 

[Tasha And]

It's already one of the most expensive TV seasons in history. More than Game of Thrones. And based on the trailer I struggle to see where the money went. But apparently it's a reflection of the production failures and not anything we'll see in the sets or costumes or cinematography. And the fact that it looks like it's the first Netflix show to not release the full season seems really weird too.

Still excited to watch but yeah seeing $120 million after watching the trailer had me like

I'm definitely for a gritty coming of age drama about 70s hiphop/south bronx but this look like a real hokey, sappy musical hope I'm wrong

Not sure how I feel about them pretty much going against their model and dropping half of it now.

but it also feels good not to feel obligated to watch 12 right now
