The show is too long and should have been halved in length. The actor Dahmer's performance is too sympathetic and not very frightening. I like the focus on his neighbour, the racism played out by the cops, and the focus on the victims at the end. This was a show about empathy on all ends with just a bit of terror. I don't really understand the controversy because they covered all of the bases here. I think most people didn't watch the show until they end. The ending, parallels to Gacy and different forms of God's wrath / mercy happening all at once was something truly fascinating and touching in terms of story.

Marvel hasn't quite gotten their shows right. The episodes are a bit too overstretched with not much happening in each episode. There is a lot of forced humour that is extremely jarring and awkward. Most importantly it lacks this unifying soul. They all feel so much like people just acting but not like a real story with real people.

Second season really had me thinking of the whole boss and employee dynamic. How it's so fragile. It's better to risk everything to be your own boss than beg for money or attention from an interview and then a boss for decades - that's just pathetic if you know you can do more. Saul was given everything that other people dreamed about but it just didn't match his free, or some would say mischievous wolf soul. I'd take homelessness over comfort in slavery and I'm saying that with a lot on the line, it's not just me. That's real courage, people who choose to live like that.
