There is no "the church". There are sects of majority black churches. So saying there is a unified front in which they all are trying to stamp down resistance is incorrect.

I can't remember how Kerwin put it exactly, I think it was something akin to "maybe there's something to it" and I thought that was such a nice representation of cautious optimism and hope. I really love this show.

I liked this one better than the episode in which Robert sold himself into slavery.

Season 3 was its strongest and most consistent season.

I'll never watch this bullshit, Uncle Tom nigga shit of an episode again. How it got a B+ is beyond me. Hamfisted fucking pseudo-satirical nonsense. Nothing about it was funny or enjoyable.

I don't see how it's problematic. Why aren't you panicking? B/c things I've been through has prepared me for this. Oh, ok!

Every time he said don't prick me I laughed.

The fights always felt unidirectional, though. Like it was constantly Jess being upset or disappointed in Nick. Doesn't that become lecturing at some point? And it was always him trying to live up to her standard, even when she put him in an uncomfortable position (like babysitting her sister).

Yea, Migos has meaning like donuts have nutritional value

I don't understand the Harvey/Scottie thing. Why can't he just say that he's helping Mike with something, that it isn't his (Harvey's) secret to tell and if it only concerned him he'd gladly let Scottie know the details. Just because you're a couple doesn't mean you have to tell that person everything, it's called…

Now I do too.

It was less epic but a part of me likes it. At the end of the day, until he drives an arrow through his eye, Slade is just going to dick Ollie around and enjoy it. He's like the bizarro Raylan Givens and I can appreciate a man's grand scheme centering on him being an asshole. Besides, he seems so happy. Slade you…

Aaron wanted S3 to be the end.

I don't think Mike is a hero.

Louis helps rich assholes screw other rich assholes or tax dodge because he can and he gets paid handsomely for it. Mike loves that kind of law, too. Neither are fighting injustice so they are both using their powers for the good of themselves. Which is fine, but that Louis loves the law stuff is just eh, no and or…

Decide if he wants to forgive her and stay together or not and then proceed from there.

She could stop demanding he fight. She could acknowledge she didn't support him and when things got tough she sought comfort in another man, adding further to her lack of support. She could admit that if she were having a tough time with the arrangement it was an arrangement of her doing and that she is a bulldozer…

What has Julia done? She prods Joel to fight for her but what has she done? He felt unsupported, what has she done to demonstrate she understands and will be more supportive in the future? She comes off like a brat that is angry her victim didn't snap back to normal after she apologized. She's pissy that Joel…

Samurai Champloo

Mike being less sympathetic because he lied feels like some simplistic moral reasoning. Also, he scammed a system that is created, primarily, to restrict the number of people who could feasibly do said job in the name of prestige and profit. He lied. Reviewer, please.
