Fascism and censorship is making it pretty damn hard, David. But I'm trying.

I enjoy your Enthusiasm...

But I don't trust any studio to make a good life is strange series.

Casting seems solid, I have no complaints there, but i didn't mind the casting for Rings of power either. (Same Studio, Remember?) While Amazon's animated shows like Invincible and the critical role shows are solid, the Live action stuff has been... vexing. Yeah, vexing is the right word.

Take Fallout for example. Its the same studio, and its success is without a doubt why video game based series are now seen by Amazon as profitable. It's a decent show with solid casting, vibe, dialogue, decent action and humor, but as a Fallout fan-girl i find the OVERALL writing, the plot and such, just kind of offensive to the Fallout franchise.

So you can see my hesitation to get excited about the whole thing. ESPECIALLY, because any good show based on a game of franchise, like say The Last of Us, has made an effort to get the original creators of that franchise on board for creative input. Hell that happened with Fallout too. (Though it can be suggested that Bethesda and Todd Howard where the wrong choice) But because DON'T NOD doesn't really own the life is strange franchise anymore, and clearly both Square Enix and DeckNine seem to be focused on making profit, rather than art, none of the original creators have any say in what happens to life is strange.

Understand? The TV show will have nothing and no-one from the original game attached to it. I'm happy people can still find enthusiasm for news about the show (If it ever gets made. Casting means nothing), but i can't find the same energy myself. Think I'm just gonna replay the original game next week.

So wait...

I was looking into the medication that you can find in Chloe's house. Fluoxetine.

Fluoxetine is a SSRI, sold under the brand name Prozac in the US. It's an anti-depressant, basically, though it can be used as a mood stabilizer in a variety of disorders and illnesses.

In the fandom it's speculated the pills are either for David or Chloe.

Now, I'm not from the US, and where I'm from, pills rarely come in bottles, even generic non-brand types like this, so I was a bit confused. Did 2013 pills really come in bottles like this? What about those little orrange bottles I always see on TV? I unleashed my google-fu (I'm a brown belt) and found this:

Look familiar?

Lets actually go to that store.

I'm sorry?

BONGO?
