One thing kind of bothering me, Ben seems to talk to the hologram in crowds, in front of people, etc. without trying to hide it. I think episode 4 might have missed an opportunity: there was a black Deputy Sheriff (I think his name was Henry) and another black townsperson named Reeves. Had they simply switched the characters names the Deputy could have been an homage to "Bass" Reeves.
Back in the OG QL, that would have actually been Bass Reeves or his direct father/son.

Yep. Just felt like they missed an opportunity.

I'm trying, but it's just so very, very poorly written.

Sunken cost fallacy. Cut it loose.

Watched the latest two episodes yesterday (bodyguard and young doctor). Actually thought they were well done, and I continue to enjoy the mystery aspect as to why Ben leapt in the first place.

Is it overly cheesy? Yeah, but still an overall fun show.

I've stuck with it. Not bad enough to cut loose for me yet. I like some of where they are going. Definitely better when non-binary boy isn't in it (although, he occasionally says something funny). Funny thing I noticed recently: the original QL was futuristic but the reboot, despite chronologically taking place after the original, is set in current times.

First episode season 2 is trying to force me to quit watching. Anyone else stuck it out this far?
