You know Me...always here to help out! 😉👍

🤠 No, I was on the edge of my seat until the last episode when I binge watched all 8 episodes in two days back when it streamed for the first time on HBO. I can't help thinking how things might have been different when Rust first talked to the guy mowing if only the angle of the sun had been shining on his scarred face instead of being backlit behind him and in Rust's eyes. Wow!

I dont follow these types of shows nearly as well as you do Jen. One of the reasons I love watching your reactions is that I feel like you are really good at picking up on subtle details, which is something I am not great at. Keep making great content and good luck!

Thanks!

Thanks Adam! 👍

The name "Carcosa" is technically from _An Inhabitant of Carcosa_ by Ambrose Bierce, which Chambers borrowed for his stories.

Chambers is the same dude who wrote the story about the "lost city of Ys" right?? or was that one of his inspirations? I know there's a connection between Ys and The Yellow King but i cant remember it off the top of my head. Like, i forget if Ys was supposed to be ruled by the yellow king or if it was his rival or something like that - but the story is basically about this ancient kingdom that was protected by a giant wall/dam that held back the ocean waves from swallowing the city because it had been built long before the rising of the oceans and so the wall had been built to keep the city safe. but there were floodgates that could be opened and the only key belonged to the princess of Ys and she was like... seduced or robbed or something and the key to the floodgates was used, crushing the city beneath a tidal wave.

@@LiquidAwesomePersonified: I wrote a longer response, but it sadly got interrupted by KZfaq shenanigans; long story short: - Ys is a mythic city off the coast of Brittany that was supposedly swallowed by the sea, and has been referenced in literature since at least the 15th century. - Chambers wrote a short story called _The Demoiselle d'Ys_ as part of his collection called _The King in Yellow_ (which is referenced in the show), but that's not the title you seem to recall. - A children's book by the title of _City of Ys: A Traditional Breton Tale_ was published in 2020, so perhaps that might be what you're thinking of. - The king of Ys was the mythical Gradlon, whose legends date back way longer than Ys itself, but as you can tell from the above there's not really any connection between him or the King in Yellow. - In the most common accounts, the city of Ys was not built before the rising of the oceans, but was built on low land knowingly, with a dike to protect it from inundation. - Gradlon's daughter Dahut, who in some accounts is the one the city itself was built for, is generally depicted as being unruly and engaging in excessive lustful and frivolous behaviors, like drinking too much and a lot of promiscuity. She steals the key to the dike one night because of a lover (the exact reason why varies), and then unlocks the floodgates because she's drunk and/or by mistake. The city is flooded, killing everyone except for the king and his daughter, and he is then convinced by some supernatural saintly voice to throw her off his horse.

@@hoon_sol mate - youtubes messing me up too right now, so i'll make this short if it posts - I really appreciate you backing me up and correcting me, top tier legend material, thank you for the effort you put into that response.

@@hoon_sol second reply - because youtube - no i never read that 2020 book so i cant possibly be thinking of that, i think i might have just mixed stuff up that i had read 20yrs ago... but im positive that Chambers was the story i read to do with Ys, because, well, i literally asked "Didn't he write that story about the lost kingdom of ys??" lol and he did. But i very well may be confusing his story with another old variant of the tale from who knows where.

Such a brilliant show 👍

We keep in as much footage as we can. These episodes were copyright claimed a ton of times. We do our best.

Yes, that last line from Rust sums up his character arc

Another really powerful moment cut was Marty's family seeing him in the hospital. Giving him love and respect.... ANd marty breaks down in front of them.

Cant include everything. This show has too many great moments to get everything in.

@@79glane928 it was the most important line for the ending... lol

Thanks MT! ☺️👍

Thanks Michael 👍

Thanks 👍

Yes, the brain is a fascinating organ.

Thanks Derek 👍

Agree. Breaking bad was excellent but there were times that the same ground was covered over and over- namely that Jesse would find a reason to break off from Walter then somehow they end up back together for some reason. You can't do that but once or else it borders on unbelievability. This series is the best ever produced on television. Everything about it is perfection.

Thanks Robert 👍

Good info, thanks Kase 👍

Rust? You mean Marty, right? (Might help to edit your comment)

Thanks Wayne 👍

What I remember is people disappointed that it didn't turn into an actual Lovecraftian story, with Carcosa and the King in Yellow leading to a real supernatural turn.

Thanks Steve! My editor Mira did these 2 parts, she did an awesome job 👍

Thanks John, you too 👍

It's currently winning my Paul Newman poll on Patreon 👍

@@jenmurrayxo and you will also notice many of the character actors that you have seen in other films on your channel

Thanks Tom 👍

Don't worry Tom, I didn't figure it out either. Great minds think alike...right Scott.

@@e.d.2096 Hey Eric, Tara has got "The Avengers" on today! See You there. . .

@@tomhoffman4330 OH...now you say something! I've already put on the notification and left a stupid message! Well thanks for nothing...SCOTT!

Thanks! ☺️👍

Thanks JD 👍

Thanks M 👍

Thanks Randy 👍

Thanks Eric! ☺️👍

@@jenmurrayxo Sorry Jen, I got his name wrong it's Woody Harrelson. Anyway thanks again Jen, great reaction!

Good Evening, My Friend! Sorry I'm a little late tonight. How has your week been..?

@@tomhoffman4330 Where you been? I was looking for you. I'm doing good, baked a cake today. Iwas just enjoying it while watching Jens reaction. How's about you?

@@e.d.2096 Nice! Right before Jen posted this, I was already engaged in my favorite Friday night show, "S.W.A.T." Other than that, more of the same old daily drama; warm days and cold nights. I'm managing to stay positive lately, or so far at least. . .

For sure!

I wouldn't say it's as good but season 2 got Abit of an unfair rep..I wasn't bored at all during it

@@dannyb9209 love how dad took care of his kids bully

Coming soon
