It had been so long since I’d heard any update on this that I was genuinely starting to worry about it. Thank god it’s still on and double thank god Barry Jenkins will be directing all of it. One of my favorite authors and one of the best emerging filmmakers is a match made in heaven.

The second season has been more mind numbing than mind blowing.

It’s kind of a weird thought for a show I really enjoy, but I’m almost hoping the third season goes back to 8 episodes. This season has ultimately had a lot (we’ve been introduced to: the real Farouk, the monks, Fukuyama and the eccentricities of Division 3, Lenny-as-not-quite-antagonist, and in-depth personal looks…

It’s very important that if someone demonstrates any talent in writing or directing anything of quality with fresh ideas and a unique voice we get them directing a Marvel or Star Wars movie right away.
