I enjoyed it. Peter Sarsgaard never disappoints.
I think the character Kaan said, "You either have servants or you are a servant." But maybe it was, "Serve or be served."

Fiona: [after Bond finds her in the bathtub in his hotel room], "Since you're here, would you mind giving me something to put on?"
[Bond casually hands Fiona her shoes]
Not a line per se, but amusing. That exchange has stuck with me.

The name of the video/song, "Emperor's new clothes." I get it...cute, but, wrong. Are you glum?

I supposed 18 on up is an adult. But, some behavior is not okay at any age. Also, I realize that sexual harassment is way different than nudity while playing a scene in a movie.
HarveyManFredSin, I find your nom de plume or should it be nom de moviechat very curious and ,perhaps, telling.

I hope there will be a new season.

Well, if that was Sarah Giles' intention to make viewers "Unsettled," Sarah succeeded.

Ah, there it is. From your own response, "Dissonant sound." A definition I found states, "Dissonance is when two or more tones clash and create a harsh, unpleasant sound." Notice that last bit, "A harsh, unpleasant sound."

PS I just viewed "Poor Things" by the same director. There were parts of the soundtrack that also had, "Dissonant sound."
"They wanted me to be another Washington."
This is an article about George Washington. But it does mention a quote from a distraught Napoleon.

To the OP, "Too good at what it does, so it will be cancelled."
I totally agree with you. This show is good at what it does. And, it is uncomfortable to watch. Here is a show that is satirizing the virtual signaling PC warriors of the world done by a Hollywood crew. I love it. But, it is hard to watch because no one is good enough; ever. Of course the couple condescend to everyone without realizing what vacuous people they are. I feel sad for this pretentious couple. They are never going to be happy. I mean I can feel their pain. I enjoyed the part played by Dean Cain. Mr. Cain an unapologetic conservative, plays a character that Whitney does not like. Why? Because he has a "Police" flag on his truck. She makes assumptions immediately and does not even want to touch him. Of course, upon inspection, when he does not fit into her preconceived narrative she is dyspeptic all the more. She lives in a state of anger.
PS There was a show called, "The Comeback." It was about a revamp of a popular TV show with a very popular star. The star played by the great Lisa Kudrow, has been experiencing a down period of her carrier. The show, at first, is very welcomed by the character played by Ms. Kudrow. But as the show progresses, Ms. Kudroew's character becomes marginalized and even ridiculed. It was very well done and hard to watch.
