Oh my god I really don't have any interest in watching the next season of The UK. I don't like any of the actors, and the plot is just off the rails bonkers at this point.
It used to be this big, seafaring epic, but even when it kind of narrowed the focus to just the one island and the wars it was pretty gripping. Now it's just kind of a cartoon and the plot lines are paper thin. They had a literal clown in charge (whoever did his wig should be barred from the industry) and they wouldn't drop the royalty stories even when they didn't make any sense with the rest of the show. Now they have some terrible actress who is supposed to be in charge because she was like ... the most ruthless rat drowning in a barrel? I don't even know how it works. I thought they were supposed to elect people? Not the royals, obviously, but the people who make deals with businesses to avoid tax? And speaking of the royals that actress that's been on it since like ... season three got killed off so now they have the guy that looks like a corpse with Mickey Mouse hands as the focus of that whole side-story and nobody wants to watch that.
It kind of reminds me of America, which is hopefully also ending soon. That show had an awesome start and a great cast.
Remember the tea thing and the big wars? Even the space stuff was done super well. Great production values, great central themes, a solid writers room ... It should have been a mini-series. Maybe three, four seasons and then wrap it up, but the networks always want to drag these things out and just continually dumb them down for broader appeal. More and more ridiculous plot lines, shittier actors, half the budget. And it shows! I mean, look at the last few seasons of that consistently-renewed car wreck. Another clown with hair that breaks immersion, some sort of race war?!, and they still haven't addressed the healthcare thing after like ... a million episodes.
And don't get me started on the crossover. We're supposed to believe there was a GLOBAL pandemic that derailed both shows for a whole season and then everything just went back to normal or worse? No major changes were made when they had everyone's collective attention ON THE WHOLE PLANET? It's such shit writing I'm mad just thinking about it, let alone watching it.
Anyway, we made cannoli from chicken skin and there's a veggie samosa bun, so come get those or maybe something else and if you have any better show recommendations let us know because this one suuuuuuuuucks now.
