I’m a fan of the show, so yeah.

So this article is that someone who is really good at their job, is getting shit because some snarky people in the media don’t like difficult people anymore. 

“Succession” can be really funny but it isn’t played or structured for delivering laughs and calling it a comedy seems a bit glib. On television “comedy” conjures up sitcom pacing and relentless jokes at the expense of story. I was two episodes in before I even realized it was OK to laugh at some of the awfulness…

Who was complaining that the show ways doing ‘ships’ or pandering to fans? If anything it’s been the opposite–not getting Gerri and Roman together, for instance 

“Be kind to each other, don’t be an asshole”

Because people don’t know things

Holy shit, the amount of people in this comment section finding a way to connect Ono to the Beatles breaking up no matter how petty, is insane.

tedious pop-culture debates that need to just die.

There are people who consider Billy Preston a mediocrity?

Billy coming into the fold was the most fascinating part to me.

Paul jamming Get Back into existence from thin air was both breathtaking and a moment we would never see in a music biopic, which would have done something like

This is a weird hill to die on. People named John who go by Jack must drive you crazy.

‘If Roman and Gerri don’t actually hook up this season, what are we even doing?’

Maybe it helps to think of it as “Shiv” is a badass DIY murder weapon and “Siobh” is too close to “Slob”? 

Bad skin and fuel shortages — it’s the 70s, baby!!! Really, though, this is how I wish all period pieces felt: natural, lived-in, but also immediate.

I’ve always approved of ICP just because they target a demographic (poor white rural males) that’s otherwise at extremely high risk of becoming racist right-wing shitheads

Adding insult to injury is the fact that ICP is, underneath their ultra-juvenile attempts at sarcasm and satire, pretty anti-right-wing.
