And they were both good and I enjoyed both of them, but I really wish I had known going in that they weren't resolved. (Managing expectations helps a lot.)

And I'm sort of flashing back to when I had so many favorite shows canceled on cliffhangers. There was a trend for a while that everything had to end on a dramatic cliffhanger and, of course, not every show gets renewed so that means several ended in really bad places. And then when streaming series were new and shiny, we briefly had a period with a handful of short series with satisfying endings and I naively thought we had turned a corner and gotten away from the needless cliffhangers.

I feel like they've missed the point of cliffhangers as well. Cliffhangers should have very short gaps between cliffhanger and resolution. "Tune in next week!" I already object to having to wait over a hiatus, but with cinematic cliffhangers and series that take multiple years to produce ... ugh. It makes me grumpy.

I shouldn't complain. My list of things I've been meaning to watch never seems to get any shorter as we really have been blessed with a lot of amazing media over the last few years. (I'm worried the actor & writer strikes are going to drag out specifically because there is such a backlog of media out there that studios won't feel the pain for a while.)
