The 5 season rewatch that finally made the finale make sense
I first watched this show in 2021 and hated how it ended. Felt like the writers just gave up. But last month I did a full rewatch, one episode a night for like 6 weeks. Picking up on small stuff, like the red bracelet in season 2 and that weird phone call in season 4. On the second go around, that ending hit totally different. Anyone else ever had a rewatch completely flip their take on a show finale?
Three episodes into my rewatch I actually fell asleep and woke up to my cat sitting on the remote, somehow pausing on the exact scene where the red bracelet shows up in the background. Thought that was a sign from the universe telling me to pay better attention, so I grabbed a notebook like a total nerd and started tracking stuff. By season 4 I caught that phone call too and honestly felt dumb for missing it the first time, since it basically spells out the whole twist. The finale still isn't perfect, but it works way better when you know what to look for, kind of like finding out the magic trick after watching it ten times. Did you also notice the weird ticking sound in the background of episode 3, or was that just my neighbor's clock?
