It started with the new owners. As always these things are top down. Hate your boss and it starts to reflect in your work. Everything is given a gauze of anger. The fact that the writers despise their boss is not even remotely a secret.

This is exactly how I feel.
Thank you for so eloquently expressing my thoughts! LOL! I agree that Andrew is likely observing how Molly responds to the Issa situation as a litmus test of how she handles issues in relationships. I’m betting there will be a breakup next episode. I’ve felt that his character has been a bit off this season, but I’m…
Honestly what in the actual fuck is wrong with Jezebel now? I am almost completely done with this site and the faux outrage over every single thing. The interviewed SO MANY survivors for this - but somehow it’s not good enough. You know that they can’t talk about wealthy and powerful men without extreme danger to…
The shots of mansions are juxtaposed with shots of the poor and very modest neighborhoods where some of the survivors grew up. Many of the interior shots focused on details like artwork, placement of certain rooms, which also came up in survivors’ stories (and come from police raid footage, rather than some…
If you’re a survivor of sexual abuse, it may be too difficult to watch, but I didn’t see the focus on his wealth in the same way as the author. The (now) women he abused described how broken their home lives were, how he essentially set up an abuse pyramid scheme where underage girls who were not wealthy got money to…
That’s honestly not at all what happens, and it’s a shame that they author decided to be outraged just to be outraged.
The girls tell their story, name names, and let it all out. His wealth is shown so the viewer can feel how powerless these girls felt in contrast. Is it perfect? No, it probably could have done more,…
The victims had their say which adds much legitimacy to the endeavor
You really need to evaluate your hatred of Lawrence. Did you date someone who looked like him and have your heart broken or something? It was funny at first but now, it is a bit unhinged. He is not a terrible person and wasn’t to blame for his and Issa’s breakup, so enough already! You can dislike the fact that they…
Lawrence hasn’t even gotten an actual job offer and basically used one trip to San Francisco to manipulate Issa’s nostalgia.
I think you completely nailed it. I think Andrew is nudging Molly gently towards making small concessions in life but Molly just isnt making any progress and he is seeing it. Especially like when she changed the food and blew off going to the game. Molly is going to end up alone and have a huge realization.
I, uh, really liked the opening montage with Issa and Lawrence. More than them hooking up, I thought them working side-by-side was the most effective at showing their growth and how good they can be together. Like, yes, they’re charming and charismatic together, but they’ve stepped up enough that now they’re both…
*”Yeah, it feels good to see them back together, but they both realize it feels shallow.” I didn’t get that from Issa. When she told Lawrence (or was it Nathan?) that she met with Molly, Issa said she thought it went well. Molly is the one who said it was surface. Maybe Issa realizes it once Molly forces the issue…
Unlike the author of this Season 4, Episode 9 recap, I find Issa and Lawrence tolerable too. I enjoy the show for its entertainment value, but I also enjoy it because I find the writing and situations relatable as well as ENJOY seeing black people on television that are contemporary, engaging in a practical manner,…
Oh wow
Michaela Coel is SO talented. I'm glad this show is being reviewed because it already feels like something I'm going to want to read more about and discuss after every episode. So thank you!
You can watch this movie, now, free on tubi.
All I remember is Eddie Cibrian teaching me how to rake.
Damn! It’s been 20 years since this movie came out?? I’m old.... Where’s my heart meds? Where’s my walker? Nurse! Nurse! It’s cold in here!
But I’m a cheerleader showed me a film where the gay people were allowed to be happy and witty and funny and could be the butt of the joke and still the victors.
