I've been considering this approach. I know the plot of the first two but don't want to go through them based on what I've heard - I guess it will be fine to just jump into S3?
Nice, I will try that approach then, thanks!
One of the difficulties of the making of season 2 was that it was happening at the same time as the making of season 3 so they couldn't really connect them that much... so you are fine skipping right to season 3 if you want
The only problem is that if you skip those 2 (though I admit that 1 is sort of okay at best and 2 is... pretty bad), a lot of the best stuff that happens in 3 is a lot to handle.
I'm very new to Lemmy and can't find a spoiler button so I'll be vague instead: there is a huge plot in season 3 for a beloved character, and if that had all happened in the first season, it wouldn't have felt earned.
I believe we're in the same boat.
And tragically, on the Jerboa app, no such button, and your spoiler text is just showing as normal text. Growing pains!
