The writing and the character arcs are fantastic. My better half especially loved Rebecca and Keeley’s err… bromance?

It’s so well written in terms of how much it gets right about the fandom of it all too - and how it only sinks in to Ted how significant it is to the community as the season moves on.

(After all, it’s the hope that kills you!)

I appreciate how it manages not to go wrong, in a whole bunch of ways it easily could have. Could have gone too dark. Or not dark enough. Ted could have been too perfect. All sorts of things they could have done too much of, or too fast, with various relationships. Could have let various plots linger too long, or resolved them too fast. Tons of ways for it to tip off the knife-edge it's on, and it just... never does.
