screaming crying tearing out my hair about how much i hate cuckoo nest episodes
#the only good cuckoos nest episodes are the ones that invert it#like where like the 'fake reality' is so absurd (see: farscape wont get fooled again - great episode i love it)#or where its like a very short goof where the characters are then like no <3 (that community s3 episode cant rmbr the name)#like. theyre just always so bad.#most of them have like. 'tension' that is written as though the audience is going to believe that the entire show theyve already seen wasnt#real and so its just insulting.#but beyond that. the really bad shit is the whole normalisation of institutionalisation and psychiatric abuse#bc theres this like. theres this constant like oh the other people there are 'scary' but the character is the only person whos sane#n so u get this like. vibe? cant recall the right word#but like. that the show believes that the abuse the character suffers is completely fine if they were actually 'crazy'#easily my most behated trope i skip those episodes when i rewatch shows that have them (like mostly scifi shows. why scifi why)#tho to clarify. LOVE lotus eater episodes. those are awesome#bc ive seen ppl call lotus eaters cuckoo nests before and like. no theyre not the same at all
