The magic of that scene, and character development in general, is that they both raised great points against one another. That was 2 heavyweights standing in the pocket landing haymakers.

#TeamTom

It’s unabashedly selfish assholes all the way down on this show.

I love it.

Unlike your pitch, that no one believed and everyone now hates you for

Lotta hostility there, buddy.

My ex from the Belize trip would recommend meditation and box breathing.

Seems I’m in the minority but this season seems boring.

That’s like saying Patrick Mahoney is boring.

Getting big Michael Corleone vibes from Kendall.

Another thread to shit up by me I guess, and it was bound to happen, but it seems the writers finally got around to letting us know their opinions on right wing news. My least favorite episode since probably the handful of early season 1 episodes.

Finally got around to it?

I'm confused.

The protagonists in the show have demonstrated time and time again that they're not good people. They also own a right wing news network.

What occurred that seemed like they were pushing some agenda rather than letting the story take a very logical path?

It's whatever. Conservatives are nazis that you shouldn't work for and keep your children away from.

Last 2 episodes have been very on the nose in that regard, but it was to be expected. The signs were always there.

The only part that has really made me roll my eyes is the storyline with Kendall's ex-wife and (adopted?) daughter. GMAFB with that shit.

Still an amazing season though.

It's been an incredible season, 10/10 for me. I was just hoping against all hopes that we could get through the show without the tarnish of 2020 politics but unfortunately we didn't and any show that does it will be worse for it.

I got the vibe too.

I'm going to spoiler the DC type stuff. IF YOU CANNOT HANDLE IT, DON'T READ IT.

Spoiler!


Overall, I think there was a lot to complain about, but overall I think they did a good job of not beating it over the head too much. The America Decides episode obviously laid it on thick, and I wish they would have chosen a different approach to it, but it is what it is.

BigBeauford 05-24-2023 08:08 AM

I just don't understand why Menken
