Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The Bear is back

I have forgotten just about everything about the plot so far but I think that’s ok. I hope this season is going to take a feel-good, healing journey sort of route.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I loved how they wrapped up season one of Murderbot, and I love even more that we’ll get a season 2!

Yes! It feels like the people making it love it like I do which is SUCH a TREAT (on top of being a really good adaptation which is great on its own merits)

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

The last episode in particular was a brilliant way to adapt the end of the novelette for the end of a TV season.

I had forgotten how much it can matter what the document (there is probably a better word but hopefully you know what I mean) that we are reading actually is (ie, letter to Mensah, ReadMe for SecUnits, documentary transcript excerpt, etc) and whether we know that while reading. If I had thought about that prior to watching the show, I would have been worried about how they could possibly handle it
