Even more character development, slicker plot twists, wilder fights and character deaths than I&#8217;d expected. (They even killed off a character I liked, which bummed me out a little.) I was completely grooving on it, all the way to the end of the credits on Episode #133.<\/p>\n<p><b>So now what do I do?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>One of the great things about the show is the way it continues from one episode to the next. Nice if you&#8217;ve got a stack of them to watch &#8211; but not so hot when you&#8217;ve got to wait a week between each one. Especially with the cliffhangers they like to use. It seems every episode ends with a serious <b>&#8220;Tune in next week!&#8221; <\/b>moment to keep viewers coming back. (Episode 124 was probably the best of these from the whole series.)<\/p>\n<p><b>But I don&#8217;t want to tune in next week!<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I know if I hadn&#8217;t hurt my back I wouldn&#8217;t have spent the whole weekend gorging myself on the show, but I&#8217;m glad I had that big a pile of downloads as I don&#8217;t know what I&#8217;d have done otherwise. But just the same, it would&#8217;ve been nice to space my viewing out a little more and enjoy it longer. Ah well, it&#8217;s not as though I can un-watch them.<\/p>\n<p><b>Guess I&#8217;ll have to find another series to get into. ^.^<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s not just cool &#8211; it&#8217;s really fucking cool!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-339","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/wheresdrew.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/wheresdrew.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/wheresdrew.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/wheresdrew.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/wheresdrew.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=339"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/wheresdrew.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/wheresdrew.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=339"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/wheresdrew.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=339"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/wheresdrew.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=339"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
