Schitts creek.

It was pushed so hard by Netflix when it first came out that I ignored it. Just seemed like an overdone rich fish out of water idea and I just wasn't interested.

I finally got round to it when I think they did another promotional push. After watching it I basically forced every person I know to watch it and it is now a comfort show that I've watched a bazillion times.

But it is just so good.

Help me through this, because I watched the first couple seasons, maybe even the first three? To the point where the son opens up his own store.

I found it charming, quirky, and largely enjoyable. But then it just sort of felt repetitive? Like, I couldn't see where the plot was going and the characters while enjoyable, I felt I'd enjoyed enough.

Is there a drastic uptick that I just needed to hold out for? Or at that point is the show pretty much what you sees what you get?

If David didn't have an effect on you? Why the fuck are you ending statements with question marks?

😂

I see it as a stand-in for the inflection people sometimes make irl when seeking affirmation for what they're saying. Imo, it's not bad as a way to add tone or subtext ("I get this might be an unpopular opinion; what do you think?"), but it is not grammatically correct in a professional email
