What does "kept watching" even mean here? The 3rd episode isn't out, yet and the first two released on the same day last week.

Often these media analysis have the same energy as a kid trying to hit the word count on an essay. Just babbling for the sake of it because Salon needs a Star Wars article this week.

I'd say it's just a click bait title. I guess they're referring to the fact that Carrie-Ann Moss dies within the first 10 minutes of the first episode and people didn't immediately turn it off lol
