Honestly it was extra funny watching all of Miss Fisher afterwards because even though we had just seen every case not more than a month previously, our friend T could still never remember how the mystery was going to resolve while I'd get two minutes in and be like "oh, this is the one with the evil beauty pageant director!"
(It was also very funny having just enough Pop History Period Knowledge to sometimes be able to predict what salacious/dramatic bit of historical detail a case was going to unravel around; I think I'm proudest of the one where they showed us a shiny watch and I was like 'OH, I bet that guy's dead wife was a radium girl and he's doing an absurdly convoluted murder for revenge!' And Indeed, Twenty Minutes Later, He Was.)

I TRULY DO UNDERSTAND THIS.
