Professional actors tend to be wealthy and conventionally attractive, so my understanding is that they’re kind of the people in charge when they go to prison. Right?

Goodbye Wisconsin!

Red Forman: “Dumbass.”

Which is why I said “looked like” that person. She’s the quickest on her feet and seemed to have a feel for the inside game, which made her look the closest to the mercenary needed to run that company. But again you eventually realize that she isn’t any more competent then Ken, she just doesn’t spend as much time with…

Snook gradually revealing how mean and petty Shiv was at her core was probably my favorite character arc.  Kendall was pretty much the same throughout, a jargon-spouting bullshit artist, and Roman a fragile manchild.  Shiv looked like the most emotionally developed and least susceptible to nonsense.  You figured out…

If he “favored” Roman, it was because kindness from his father is what Roman craved. Kendall needed respect as a businessman, and Shiv as a crafty operator. He gave just enough of those things to each to string them along. But no, he was never going to appoint any of them to the CEO role. He had seen throughout their…

He should definitely submit the funeral episode as his sample of work for the Emmy. It was masterful work. 

Yeah, I think he would easily have claimed the Emmy in supporting. Matthew Macfadyen had much more to do last season and his win then was deserved. But this season was all Roman. In an ensemble like Succession I’m not sure he can lock down the Best Actor awards, but best supporting he would have cleaned up.

Kieran Culkin’s performances throughout this season have been exemplary but none more so than in the penultimate episode. His fall from cocksure in the penthouse apartment (top of the world) to being beaten on the ground in the riot (down in the gutter) could have been too on-the-nose in the wrong hands but Culkin…

Damn I want to live in your world, where there aren’t busloads of right-wing extremists dropping by polling stations, there aren’t arsons blamed on both sides, and the financial elite don’t jerk the reins this way or that nominally for business reasons but mostly for coddling ego and daddy issues, where an election…

I don’t know, but they might talk like that if they’re not particularly ideological and only care about money. It’s plausible super rich people might accurately describe the fascist right wing and corporate Dems since it’s common knowledge for any one who follows the news that both exist. That they’re the sons of a…

This site only cares about mental health crises up to a point, like much of America. 

It’s a complicated thing to balance giving a person in crisis grace and also holding them accountable for their actions.

As a great man once said, “Hooray for Fuckywood.”

You’re thinking of Dalton Wilcox:

He reportedly kept waggling his eyebrows and saying “What, no one wants to eff Murray Abraham?”

Give the Emmy to whoever managed to create a perfectly ambiguous line that could easily be read as an underline or a cross-out.

Samuel L Jackson as Jay Sherman.  It stinks motherfucker!

It’s the reboot of The Critic we deserve.

Only on marketing!
