I didn't really get Atlanta until this episode. I kept watching to support the new wave of Black artists, but I wasn't feeling it until now. Despite my being the exact target audience (Black, mid 20s, college educated) it didn't feel relatable at all. But this episode was fire. I watched it two times in a row and was…

The Scandal effect but for Asians is something I could get behind. It is not just race but body size and age inclusion that is happening. It is amazing how many actors who couldn't get a shot before are popping up. My current favs are Donna Lynn Champlin and Sterling K Brown.

I really love this show so far. Bell is as funny as always, and the supporting characters fit the world well. Also, another Asian supporting character on TV that isn't a stereotype! So hoping it does well in the ratings. This and Crazy Ex Girlfriend are just the type of humor I need to keep my mind off the election.

Mary Alice who originated Rose won the tony for supporting actress while Viola won best leading actress for revival. Crazy to think that she might have three tony awards had Intimate Apparel opened on broadway rather than off (she won the drama desk and critics award for that play).

Nate Parker doesn't have nearly the number of friends that Allen does.
