bar

In the second half of the first episode, Sylvia brought a lawyer over to sell the bar. Old Pete poured a glass of 100-year-old whisky for the lawyer and told him the 100-year history of the bar.
I almost cried. Without him, life is full of mutual oppression and conflict. From this scene, I decided to finish the show.

It tells about all kinds of life, through Horace, through Pete, through guests... It's hard to remember every detail now, because it's so small. But when it comes to every detail, there will be bursts of taste, because it is too real.
There were a few times in this drama that I almost burst into tears. One was when old Pete talked about the history of the bar. The second is when Pete brought back his blind date and was exposed by Horace to be mentally ill. From the moment my sweet blind date came in, I wanted to rush into the screen and say, "Please go out with him!" To Horace and Sylvia, "Please don't be mean to them!" I wanted to hug Pete? Once, Pete's doctor wanted to cut off his medication and put him back in a mental hospital. Later, he tried to use his mind with Tricia to return to normal, but he went berserk.
When I was young, I always felt that disease was not worth mentioning. Later, when I was seriously ill, I always remember the powerlessness when I was sitting in the hospital corridor, and the feeling of seeing the world again when I was discharged from the hospital.
I've seen a lot of comments expressing deep feelings for the ex-wife episode, something that touched me, like Horace saying if you want to get out of the mess, just leave it. It’s not about escaping. If you can’t give up the temptation and can’t go back to the past, but you don’t want to get caught up in it, then leave. But I didn't feel much about the ex-wife cheating itself. It's like I don't feel much when the guests are trying to tune out politicians. This is the so-called life experience, the difference in vision. When a person's knowledge is limited, even if he hears about other things and spends a lot of time thinking about it every day, it is difficult for him to get more than his knowledge. Like a frog in a well.

In fact, half of the time I saw it, I had the idea of ​​giving up the show. Because it puts the pain of life in front of your eyes helplessly, just like every day you go out, there are lifeless trivial things that haunt you, and when you come back and watch it demonstrate in front of you, you will sink directly into it. So depressing. A few years ago, one of my front desks was a naive girl. Once I was watching "The Other Side of the World", she asked the summary of the book with a smile and crooked eyes, and then flattened her mouth: "It's too dark, we I should read some positive books..." I laughed inwardly: This is what really happened, this is part of the world, watching chicken soup will make life really bright. But now when I watch "Hundred Years Tavern", I feel too depressed to look directly. But every night when I go back to my dorm, I can't help but turn it on.

Life can sometimes be bad, but you have to live it, and look forward to the future.
