I'm watching the series a bit more slowly, and I have so. many. thoughts.

While it makes me sad for Princess Carolyn to see all her endless struggling, while Todd continues to fall upward, he's just so pleasant in his incompetence! And helpful at times! He's the un-Bojack -- riding waves of privilege, but not kicking people on his way up (or forward, or down).

But really, I wanted to share my love of baby giggles. After (or more realistically, between) dealing with crying and screaming, baby giggles and baby cuddles are the best things in the world. Seeing Princess Caroline say silly things and cuddle up with a giggling Unnamed Princess Caroline Project made me really happy, and maybe a bit teary-eyed.

I already have a Netflix show starring Alison Brie and featuring a character named Ruth, thank you very much.
