Finished Spider Noir early this week (Swype's first interpretation was Shower Now 🫠). These days, I always get nervous when I approach the end of a season-long storyline, but this one worked. So often they don't. Nic Cage got one episode to go full Cage and I think that was the right amount.

We watched in color since we both agreed that the black & white looked too sharp. It's a modern piece in a noir setting; in color, it is exactly what it claims to be. Palette-shifted to B&W it looks like a fake. Maybe with some treatment, it would have played differently. The color was almost perfect, imo. The palette wasn't too bright, although I might have preferred slightly less realistic hues in order to mimic colorized versions of old movies. But then again, maybe not--I would have to see it to know if it was what I truly wanted.

In the end, the only part of the show I actually disliked was that it had too many commercials (Amazon Prime 😖).
