Well I can. Now.

So, foreshadowing with the “THE NOTORIOUS KEN: READY TO DIE,” signage? Maybe they’ll go for it as Kendall is pushed farther out and the series begins drawing to a close. It would be bold. Somebody’s gotta take over at the end of this thing. I’d have pulled for Greg running a game on all of them somehow (with his

I think your credit is a bit misplaced here. A person can go to a gym and exercise regularly for six months and can get in really good shape. No one can show up at NASA for six months and be an engineer. Remember, we’re not saying she’s an Olympic diver, or incredible downhill skier, or champion lifter. She’s in shape

I get that she’s been a privileged conniving asshole since the show started. That’s exactly why I question picking up her story as she has risen to be the right hand of a the ultimate liberal do-gooder (while being from a Murdoch -like family). Never happen.

Similarly with Tom. We picked her character up already linked

If she wasn’t a liberal she’d have never risen to be the sidekick of the biggest liberal Senator in the United States. That’s my point about the character as we actually see her in the show. They filmed it as she is now from the initial episode on- but I’m convinced she wasn’t supposed to be this version of Shiv from

The further and further this show continues with Shiv being as much a privileged conniving asshole as any of the rest of the family, the more I become more convinced her character was re-written after an early “pilot” or test views. It’s never made sense to me that, as ultimately and currently played, that, 1) She’d

I usually cannot stand him, but I think he nailed this part. 

Good point about Greg. We didn’t SEE him sign it, and the scene’s resolution displayed so much animosity it would certainly imply he WOULDN’T sign it. Maybe it’s just a bit of poor writing and editing there. We’ll see.

Not a Brody fan, but I loved this storyline and his performance. This was a setup from the get-go. The call to the island, the “hike” for lunch, the passive aggressive offers for a return ride in a cart. He baited a frail and egotistical Logan to expose his own frailty (anti-Semitism), and likewise exposed dimwitted

It is occurring to me that these folks fly around NYC and the entire planet faster than GOT ravens at this point.

IMO Kendall turning on Logan is not a hidden reveal. That’s a plot development. Having Greg suddenly appear at a news conference full of confidence and loaded with receipts and a takeover plan- THAT would have been a hidden reveal - and a ridiculous one at that.

Kendall got his lackey to go buy speakers and HE blasted Nirvana. The writers as much TOLD us all that with the shopping list and the speaker boxes- no conspiracy here. That is, however, a plot hole, because they also showed how security was all over them when they entered the building, so there’s no way the lackey

Are you off your meds? WTF does this word salad mean?

Nah, the recent (last year) bizarre time-warp flick where he may or may not have died in a snow-bound car in his old high school parking lot.  The writer apparently didn’t know WTF he was trying to say.

Someone let him out of that car at the high school?

“E-Bow” has a definite Mott the Hoople “Dudes” vibe behind it, but it’s missing that ascending chorus to balance the composition.

Just stay off my lawn as I say too many orbiting CGI fights, superhero drops, and tone-deaf snarky comments make most of these films uninteresting. They’ve become a cinematic WWE. And a LOT of people like that obviously, but, meh.... “gods” cracking jokes and no real risk and tension just saps them of interest.

meretricious”
I am so using that in a sentence today, like, “Hey, I don’t know what “meretricious” means.”

Speaking of accents, it always amazes me to watch a scene between Shiv and Tom - and Aussie and a Brit.

I just want to say how impressed I am with the portrayal of Kendall being turned in by Depeche Mode’s singer. Amazing career pivot.
