Well I really liked this episode.

I saw it mentioned in another comment, so I ‘m not the only one expecting this, but I think the Roy/Keely complications are going to end up with them getting married.

If nothing else(and I don’t agree with this review, for the most part), the acting’s still superb. Sudeikis earned that Emmy win. That letter-reading scene and him reading Trent’s messages were amazing.

Pre-Covid, I worked in a midsize city school system that is still very rural by culture. I worked with many kids who had a family member incarcerated and the school system just ignored the needs of these kids. It falls under social work, but the social workers are overwhelmed. I know, my direct boss was a school…

It is remarkable that Ted, who had a hugely memorable speech about “curiosity” last year during the darts scene, has been manager of this team for 2 years and has managed to apparently learn nothing at all about the sport.

Incidentally, I feel that since the teachers know that Uncle/Coach Roy is the famous Roy Kent, they would also know about his relationship with Keeley, which would have been all over the gossip papers after she split from superstar Jamie Tartt.  (It just occurred to me that Roy/Keeley, and even Jamie/Keeley, have a…

This was my takeaway. When Roy got to the photoshoot he had the look of a man who is deciding if he should propose or not (which is amazing considering how little emotions Brett Goldstein lets through). 

“You spelled ‘favo[u]rite’ wrong.”

Look, I loathe what Nate is turning into, but I’ve gotta give it up to Nick Mohammed for selling it so fucking well. In the hands of another actor, I could see it happening with a shit-ton of mustache-twirling or cartoonishness. But the thing is, I think we as viewers see Nate heading down this path, being consumed by…

Also, I think this episode really cemented how low Nate’s self esteem is. And rightly so. Even though he is a team coach, he is not really taken seriously by anyone.

I didn’t really read the Ms. Bowen/Jamie thing as the show setting up love triangles.

Ted - “You spelled favorite wrong.” 😂

I’ll just say this, as theres enough comments talking about the finer details of the episode and a full review:

I don’t know who came up with the idea of Nate spitting, writers or actor, but it is so very disgusting.

that same tom cruisian ability to control their entire beimg perfectly except for the dead eyes

I’ve talked about this before. I had a fear reactive dog. He was genetically fearful. He was dumped at a shelter with his litter mates. That’s a high stress environment especially for a puppy and a fearful puppy at that. Then he was attacked by an off leash dog during a fear period. It was very minor and probably…

Starred for truth, and I hope someone can bring you out of the grays. Labrador retrievers inflict far more bites every year than pitties do, and absolutely can kill you. Sure, a pit bull has a wider mouth and formidable bite strength — but the difference in bite strength really isn’t meaningful, since all dogs have…

Any dog can do a lot of damage to a human being. Please don’t perpetuate the myth of pitties being more vicious than other animals. It’s hard enough already for them to be treated with respect. So many are ignored at shelters and/or are euthanized just by virtue of being a pitbull type dog

I bet he doesn’t give them any money, or makes them ask any time they want to buy anything, and I bet he also knows that money is the only thing he has going for him and that realization only makes him an even worse partner. 

When I think about all of the women who stay in horrible relationships, and then how no woman will stay with Musk in spite of the fact that he is rich AF and famous.  He must be bringing being a bad partner to dizzying new heights.
