      I agree mostly, but there are some real gems if you stick with it. (Mild spoiler follows)

        Idk i watched most of it but Forks I got halfway and skipped to the next episode. If the complaint is that the show is too intense, Forks is not the reason to power through.

        Yes I can see how it could induce PTSD if you’ve lived it, similar to veterans watching war movies I guess. I heard it said that the show did extremely well in representing the stress of working in a kitchen.
