Yeah. So are hit men. What's your point?

Sweet Tooth | 2.05
I missed you. Yeah, I missed you too.
i saw a review that called season 2 of sweet tooth "too confined" and maybe it's just me but i feel like that's misidentifying what's actually a strength of the show. in an era where streaming series that try to Go Bigger and do as much as possible in their second seasons out of fear of not getting renewed again frequently result in bloated, poorly-paced messes that speedrun plotlines without giving them room to breathe, having a season of tv that focuses very tightly on playing out and resolving the problems established by the prior season is fucking refreshing.
sweet tooth on netflix literally has everything. found family. two different terrified trembling soaking wet war criminals. trains. failed attempts at dinner party power plays. a mother of 12 who keeps attacking a warlord with explosives. whimsy. attempted suicide by flower. indie rock needle drops. teenage furries with motorcycles. hallucinatory visions. that gopher kid.
On the one hand, I hope this event puts mortal fear back into the wealthy. I hope it's reminded them that money can't always save their stupid asses. I hope they have learned to fear death again.
On the other, I hope they don't, and keep taking out more billionaires through their own hubris in increasingly absurd and ironic ways.

I can’t believe you guys are making fun of those poor innocent billionaires… how can you sink so low… are you really that shallow? I’m imploding with rage.
Don't let them reframe this as the unavoidable cost of innovation. Don't let them say that because it's sad that people died, we need to give their deaths purpose and meaning. This was absolutely avoidable. The deaths, including that of the 19-year-old, were completely pointless. Regulations exist for a reason. And ignoring expert after expert after expert who warns you that your enterprise is highly unsafe is not innovative, it's just stupid. Billionaire hubris isn't some magical energy that transcends the basic laws of physics. Money can't do that.
Typically, it's the working man who pays in blood in these situations but this time, it wasn't. It's too much to hope that maybe this will teach the billionaire class anything, but at the very least, it should be a reminder to everyone else that billionaires aren't better or smarter or harder working than people with less money. They just have more resources to exploit.
