Watching episode 10 right now and already I’m thinking that Exodus is just far, further out than what season one or two could ever have done. Not too dissimilar in how Twin Peaks: The Return is higher-octane distillation of the original TP. Of course this is something that happens with aging.

Also, it’s funny as fuck.

We’re still critiquing the Swedish Anonymous segment in ep 10 w.r.t. sexual harassment at Zentropa and I suppose the fact that we are means that Lars has won. Glad to have him back.

I believe we have had one Finn and two Norwegians, now down to one, don’t know about any Danes or Swedes.

Don’t know how I feel about this Either/Or guy.

Naver.

I guess maybe the way to do this is watch the new episodes first as they appear and then go back and watch the old ones as time permits.

Also good way to brush up on my Danish.

I like how I can’t always be sure if somebody is a replacement of sorts or from the original cast, although as far as I can tell there are only the two obvious successor characters. No, make it four.

I wonder how much of this is informed by Lars' experience in the global health care industry

two weeks pass...

So this wrapped up in a pretty Lars-like fashion, alright.

This reminded a little bit of the X-files with the arrogant science vs funny spiritualism thing between the Swedish doc and the old lady. That keeps the first series going for me.

Any sense of that is abandoned, it becomes a lot more random by the 2nd season, real "what can we fuck with?" vibe but I end up not caring. Not sure I can get to the end of it.

Really one of the best things Trier has ever done.

I love the whole "my name is Lars Von Trier and I wish you a good evening" stuff at the end credits.
