Frankly, the thought came to me out of the blue. I have no idea what it means. And of course M&S are determined idealists, but the show--no, I don't credit CC with a philosophical pov, other than a rather soggy and sentimental religiosity--strikes me as very Sisyphian. Yes, it's the result of bad writing, also bad longterm planning, but since when don't we get to evaluate canon when it suits our purposes?
We are surrounded by evidences of nihilism. Seinfeld is an excellent example, actually. Politics. We have love, which redeems. Talent helps too.
