If had a magic wand, I would do away with this entire show except S1, S2, maybe half a dozen episodes from 3, and a few scenes/moments from 4. Beyond that, the only things of value to me are the machine-kissing scene, the phone-peeling scene, and the blatantly shippy cake-eating H/R scene from Cooper Extraction. (*Not* the accidental kiss from Boyfriend Complexity, which was contrived and condescending and psychologically icky.) So, that's about ten minutes out of five years. I'd keep Intimacy if the Shennies wanted me to. The rest of it is truly and totally irrelevant to me.
But I don't have a magic wand. Bernadette probably hid it. But she doesn't exist, so whatever.
TBH, I might do away with this show entirely, if it meant seeing the same actors in something better. I can't discount the writing, though, so that's a quandary. These actors' outside projects have been resoundingly meh, so far.
Even with the early seasons, I like the potential more than the execution. I've realized this is why I'm not particularly into blow-by-blow dissection of specific eps; because I like the characters and the "worldbuilding" more than the eps.
