You do you bro. It's fine if you never learned how to calm yourself long enough to get the full experience the writers and directors wanted... because there's a lot more than "pensive looks" going on. There are several dozen layers of subtlety happening on screen at any moment, and you're bound to miss some shit. But whatever dude. I'm not here to tell you how to enjoy what is arguably one of the best first seasons of a television show in ages.
You literally showed up here to tell me how to enjoy it, bro. I don't actually need to feel the boredom and desolation that the innies do.
I didn't demand, I suggested. Because it's a show with tons of intentional subtlety. Every moment on the screen has a purpose. Not to mention all the brilliant dialog. There are so many great lines that come out of nowhere.
Sure, you can get the basics by skimming it... but you're not going to get the full experience that way.
Hell, I'm on my fourth watch through and I'm still finding new shit.
