    This show is still under rated IMO (I think it would be even bigger if it had been on HBO) big props to showtime though. They do offer the 1st episode of season one for free on YT and it seems like they started to market the show much better going into season 2.. I don’t think they did any marketing or anything for season 1 and the popularity was a slow build. These women deserve their Emmy’s this year for real!

      I have a feeling it might have a White Lotus S2 trajectory - S1 people watched, but s2 was water cooler television. I rock with Showtime shows over HBO shows if i was forced to pick, but I agree this being slotted in to replace The Last of Us would have guaranteed the above happening.

You can see three girls standing by themselves behind the main group. I am guessing 15-16 survivors left. Remember Rachel died in the plane. Plus Misty’s bestie, be she real or not.
