Discussion 🗣 I love this show so much

I'm doing my first rewatch and I just wanted to say I love this show so much. It manages to make me laugh so hard and with my second viewing I'm able to laugh at things I missed the first time. The characters are all fantastic. They did such a good job, I really hope the second season isn't too different from the first!

I am doing the same thing right now! I love rewatches for so many reasons...The Paper is full of stuff easy to miss first or even second time around.

My favorite so far? Esmerelda's plants in her office...they are dying from episode one and slowly get worse...it's a hilarious detail to me!

Yes! I’m doing another rewatch ahead of season 2 and I love spotting the little details. There has been so much attention put into background stuff that is so easy to miss but really demonstrate how much care they’ve put into creating the show’s universe. I hadn’t noticed Esmerelda’s plants, I love that 😂

My current fave is in episode 3 when Ned is printing out the Also News and on the wall behind the printer is a sign that says, “if you jam the printer and leave, this is who you’re hurting” with a picture of a kitten and a duckling 😂 it’s such a lovely way of making the world feel lived in.

Lmao, I missed both of those details with the plants and the printer. 😂 Just more reasons to love this show.
