So Season Two is dropped. Watched the first couple. Not sure what is missing but it feels phoned in. Pretty though! ---

Season 1 ended all Game of Thrones-ish from what I recall. ---

[Moderating] Edited title to include name of the show. ---

Season 3 or 2 (depending on if you concider the last two sets two seasons or two halves of one) is out. 10 episodes, I’m about halfway through, and loving it. ---

I’m also about halfway through and I’m liking it too. I was iffy at first, but the storyline has really picked up. Also, Richard Ayoade is now (probably) a recurring character and I’m a big Richard Ayoade fan. By my count he’s the third _IT Crowd_ alum to lend a voice to _Disenchanted_. ---

Good season. But I was NOT thrilled with the cliffhanger it ended with. I hate when producers leave you with NO closure at all. ---

There are 10 more episodes on the way. You can break it down as either S1: 20 episodes S2: 20 episodes or S1.0: 10 episodes S1.5: 10 episodes S2.0: 10 episodes S2.5: 10 episodes So we are either through the 3rd season with a 4th season on the way or in the mid-season finale of season 2, however you want to look at it. ---

And now I have finished either 2 seasons or 4 seasons, and still like it. ---

2 episodes into this season, still loving it. ---

It is interesting that _The Simpons_ is almost completely episodic with few advancements making it past the weekly reset button, _Futurama_ has some plot advancements but episodes are still mostly self-contained, and _Disenchantment_ has a single seasons-long sweeping story arc and you absolutely can’t just drop in anywhere and understand it. I suppose that’s the trend for TV in general, though. ---

I didn’t find the latest season particularly interesting. I ended up kind of half-listening to it in the background while I did other stuff. ---

Not enough Richard Ayoade, but I have the same complaint about practically everything. 🙂 Matt Berry seems to be missing too. Noel Fielding is the last of the IT Crowd still around. ---

And the final 10 episodes are out. An epic end that provides a proper wrap-up for the various plot threads. (The last episode is double length.) ---

I don’t know about “wrapping up”, it’s just too zany… How did Scruffles get killed? And why would Luci, or Dagmar, sit around for too long without making a break? :þ Can’t say it truly needs more episodes, though. ---

The newest episode of _Futurama_ ( 11x09, “A New New York Yankee in King Elfo’s Court”) is a crossover. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/disenchantment-new-matt-groening-animated-series-coming-to-netflix/792108.md?page=5)
