“will we be able to live above ground?” is a hilarious callback to S1 when Connor asks Willa to move to his ranch. (“how far is it to a Starbucks?”)

yeah, i think it was a pretty accurate depiction of how the wealthy elite operate; “right” vs. “left” performatively standing on opposite sides of some nebulous political spectrum, but in the end, everyone finds themselves in the same room, eating the same hors d’oeuvres, making contingencies for any possible outcome.…

listen, i’m no prude, but i just wanted to say that i found it QUITE off-putting that the show went out of its way to explicitly state that young Charlotte was 17 years old, then proceeded to show us some of the most graphic sex scenes i’ve ever seen on a Netflix show. they then repeat her age a second time in a later…

“One (Roman) toward slavish recreation of their father’s last wishes and the other (Kendall) toward trying to cosplay as him.”

i mean, let’s not discount the foreshadowing/easter egg of Logan always referring to Roman as “Romulus”, infamously known for killing his brother, as the legend goes. Kendall might be the one cosplaying as the boss right now, but Roman is the only one of the 3 with a lick of actual business sense.

Victoire was runner-up on season 2 of Top Chef: Italy, but her hometown is listed as Brazzaville, Republic of the Congo. So, decidedly not French. (Unless you want to get into a debate about whether people from former Belgian or French colonies are considered Belgian/French.)

“wahhhh i’m in the comments section of an episode i didn’t watch complaining about things that were resolved by said episode!” 

maybe watch the episode first before commenting, as they do indeed shout out The Police, specifically, during this exchange. 

can’t believe we got a whole love letter to perfect 4-season TV shows without so much as a *passing mention* of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, the most perfect 4 season show to ever do it. (a roadmap which was pitched from the very beginning, in fact.)

i mean, Huff ran for 2 seasons and it was about a therapist and that was funny (and dark) as hell, so.

“this Segel-Ford-led project seems to want to find the funny in how we work on our mental health. That is, I’ll admit, quite the ambitious aim.”

>>Also, how did we not even get an actual Laura Dern cameo? Might she, perhaps, be the DiGrasso we see in The White Lotus season three?

hey, actual sex worker here, and for the millionth time: we don’t “sell our bodies” (in fact, i’m sitting here, in mine, right now!) we sell our time and our companionship. there’s really no need to parrot one of the most ignorant and cliched descriptions about our profession in service of your review. thanks!

that rate is pretty standard (it’s actually on the lower end of standard, by Vegas/NYC/Miami/LA standards, anyway) but also, when you’re booked by a client, you don’t pay for anything. you never reach into your own pocket for things like drinks, tips, cabs, etc. so Lucia charging drinks and food and shopping to Dom’s…

actual Vegas SW here: $2k for an overnight is on the lower end of standard. (also, she’s “only” charging Cam $1300 because he already handed her some money on her way out of the room.) #themoreyouknow

sure, but there’s definitely a reason why they chose to make her kids blonde. it’s saying something without saying it.

“He’s not a complete idiot, he just wants you to think he is because then you pay his rent and bail him out for 30 years.”

we were never going to get a neutral ending. Jimmy/Saul’s whole deal is that he is constantly chasing something just out of reach, which inevitably leads to his downfall. (it happened with Chuck, with Howard, with Kim, with Walt & Jesse, and now it’s likely going to happen to Gene and the Nebraska gang.)

not a single word to say about Physical? Rose Byrne is giving the tragic comedy performance of a lifetime.

Howard is to Better Call Saul what Skylar was to Breaking Bad.
