Yeah. She wanted to be her father but in the end she chose to become her mother.

It’s the decision that keeps her in that world. She’s married to the CEO and will probably be able to keep having a voice in the company some way or another— probably a lot more than if Kendall was in power. If she really wanted out she’d have broken it off with Tom but that doesn’t seem to be happening.

Yeah, Tom could conceivably even outlast Matsson.

I thought Shiv might be doing the math, she is married to the CEO and is about to have Logan Roy’s grandchild. She’s still in a position of some power and who knows, one of her own kids could be CEO someday... I could see them rising through the ranks on the legacy name. Heck she and Tom could name a child “Logan” and…

As far as I know that was never mentioned again once Logan died. I don’t need closure on everything (like the election, which is fine being vague) but I wish they’d have been a little more clear on that. I assume it’s dead though.

I do think he has more range than you give him credit for, but he is limited when it comes to comedy. He can be very funny in roles where he’s a straightman (Midnight Run) or the character doesn’t realize how ridiculous they are (King of Comedy, even Casino) but when he does broad comedy it really doesn’t work and it…

They didn’t even start writing Euphoria scripts yet? The last season aired almost a year and a half ago! It’s a hit show and these are supposedly teenagers, what were you waiting for?

It’s reasonable not to want to be told “I’m in the same boat as you” by a millionaire who has to spend a little more time in their beautiful and spacious home while you’re sharing a small apartment with too many people and one will inevitably bring home Covid. Resentment of the rich for being rich is one thing,…

It’s watchable but it’s like a 90s syndicated version of Game of Thrones.

Probably because so many people watched Lost all the way through and dropped out of True Blood long before it ended.

Joan earned that ending. She wasn’t that person but after seven seasons worth of experience, now she is. That’s life and that’s fitting for a time when many women were entering the workforce or starting second act careers in their lives. 

These are all valid and interesting interpretations but Ewan is a fictional character so it’s a little silly for anyone to say with absolutely certainty what Ewan thinks, unless perhaps they’re Jesse Armstrong.

I think Ken recruiting (or trying to recruit) Colin in this episode is going to lead to something regarding the waiter.

My guess... They won’t reveal who’s eventually president. Of course we the audience care, but it’s not the point or the story being told. The finale will be the resolution of the Matsson deal and which kid (if any) is left standing. Maybe they’ll do a flash forward epilogue but Mencken eventually winning or losing is…

I wouldn’t want to do it either. But it would make sense they’re going to extensively screen candidates, I mean they do so on any reality show and the success of these completely depends on finding someone who is generally trusting and good natured and is capable of laughing at themselves so they’ll be extra diligent.…

There’s a difference if you think long term. If the fascist leader eventually falls the guy like Logan and Roman will still be standing and ready to enable the next monster who’ll keep them in power, whatever -ist they may be. I think that’s a takeaway we’re supposed to have here.  

Yeah. It’s not the same. A Roman is more dangerous than a Mencken. If the political tide turns against a Mencken he’s done. He gets one shot, more or less- maybe a comeback but there’s no reinventing himself. Roman doesn’t believe in anything so he can be playing all the angles with multiple Menckens of different…

I think the “out of service” message is a common TV writer cheat to quickly show they’re faking the call.

I’m not even sure she was indulging, I think she may have just seen an opportunity. Considering how much time she’s spent at this toxic company I would expect Roman wasn’t the first man to harass her. She probably learned how to navigate these situations to her advantage in a time where reporting it would get her…
