Season 3 is off to a good start

I very much enjoyed this episode. Right off the bat we are introduced to Tuca's life heading back on track with a new job working as a tour guide and visiting her new boyfriend, though her anxieties get the best of her while having fear that her typical "Tuca self" is setting her back. Bertie has to make a choice of whether or not she wants to continue her baking business or tag along in an existing one featuring a famous baker and leaving her business behind. A nice balance of humor and moments that leave you on the edge wondering what's going to happen next. A wonderful first episode for the season.

What happened, oh fair mental maiden?

The episode seems to be about not letting pride get to your brain, while watching others seemingly get further in life than you ever feel you'll get.

Sounds so familiar to former episodes' themes, that I feel like I'm watching a re-run, but as a bootleg with its script based on playing the telephone game.

And then there's the facetiousness that seems to have reached its peak.

I'm so sorry, the show that used to tag along my own therapies. You didn't deserve this:

I do not know who's written you this time around, but your humour has grown away so much, that it took you 4 minutes to introduce an actually funny tidbit that isn't slapstick, or glamorise being able to scream about an issue - as if it achieved anything rather than foolhardily attempt at seeming intellectual.

And then you added in the so on time caricature of a millennial job-seeker's attitude. Car Seat Headrest got backlash over "Hollywood". This episode deserves it far much more.

Two stars, because while still on Adult Swim's shoestring animation budget, there was another funny joke. Maybe I'll edit the review once I make it past the first half of the episode. I feel like I can't take it anymore. Another show, but with a beginning as awful as Dexter New Blood's lack of resonance in its ending.
