I was bracing myself when I realized most of this week's episode is going to be a big flashforward, as I feel my favorite parts of this season so far have been about Midge's new writing job. But it turned out to be the show's best episode in years (personally -- maybe ever?), as the structure is cleverly used to weave our characters' future and conflicts among the fast-paced remembrance and humor. Then it ended on such an unexpectedly moving note; I teared up literally at the same time Susie did (Borstein is great throughout the ep). “Tits up, old friend"
I really can not stand Hisam.
Props to the man randomly spinning on the street. Now that's a unique bit of local flavor for the episode!
Kaleb’s gamble on Emily in episode 2 paying DIVIDENDS!!!
I've got to be honest, Abe's instant praise of Miriam's achievement (once he understood) got me bawling.
I find it difficult to see awards going anywhere but to the cast and crew of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel this year (or next year, I guess, for most of them). Tony Shalhoub's performance last week and Alex Borstein's in this, with that incredible monologue, are certs.
But everyone's top notch. There's been a lot of discussion over the years about who Miriam would end up with. This finale answers that in the best way possible. They were already with them. Sometimes a fulfilling life doesn't necessarily rely on romantic love.
Xavier really likes to say if I’m being honest
What a way to not stick the landing in the absolute slightest...
I got goosebumps when they started talking about the music video. This is so f:asterisk_symbol::asterisk_symbol::asterisk_symbol: up. What the hell. I never had a big opinion about him other than he is a talented artist and a very smart person, but this is insane. He needs help, but these girls need it more. And he’s just one of many. This is so sickening. I’m impressed beyond words how these women managed to stand up in the end and come forward.
Did I miss your first movie? :joy:
People are taking this show too seriously, I think. I'm having quite a good time finding out how they wrap the comedy aspects around the missions. Y'all need to relax more.
Please don't let this season be consumed with her crazy. It will be great if she ends this having conquered her demons?
ROM POM POM POM MAN DOWN
“Holy shit Bruckheimer! When you get an abortion you’re supposed to leave the mangled fetus at the clinic, not staple it to the skeleton of a gay condor and run it for president.”
“Just give it to one of those gay-converting Baptist colleges to fund a statue of a gold-plated Jesus fucking a triceratops.”
“-I have your estrogen patch, if you’d like.
-You wear it. Maybe you’ll grow some hair on your vagina!”
“-What do you think it says?
-I don’t read mandarin, ma’am.
-When do the new Kents come out?”
God, i will miss this show so much!! :(
Interesting that the episode has an average 8/10 rating but most of the comments come from people rating this less than that. It's almost as if the 'hate' Star Wars is getting these days is from a vocal minority and not the view of the fanbase as a whole.
Sure Burg was an all-brawn-and-no-brain cliché, but still had personality. Anyone saying the production quality was bad clearly doesn't have eyes and anyone who doesn't understand why he didn't kill clearly doesn't have ears, because Mando's code in that regard is very clear.
Gotta comment after seeing so many haters complain about episodes diverting from the main arc. That’s what so amazing about a Star Wars SHOW. We get to have a little fun outside the bigger picture.
To me, these aren’t filler. These sporadic adventures-of-the-week episodes give us some breathing room to understand our characters a bit more and play around in such an epic sandbox on the small screen. The big story will continue — and we’ll appreciate it even more.
We’re oh-so-lucky to have this echelon of television in our lives. Absolutely stellar.
So June really raped Luke huh....
This show is so weird. It seems nothing has anything to do with anything. Maybe I've forgotten things from the previous season but why are they where they are this season. Head scratcher.
This episode destroyed me. After Nacho's death and Kim behavior turning more and more like Saul's behavior, the last important character with uncertain future was Howard and I really had hoped that he could escape of all the caos the Wexler-McGill couple generates. But no. No one is safe in this show, no one saves :(
Poor Howard, I said that a lot of times in the last seasons. He deserved better. The bad things he did were only the ones he said to the main characters in their house: not letting Jimmy work at HHM (which wasn't his choice) and sending Kim to the mail room. Then, like since season 3 or mid 2, I don't remember any error from him but he kept receiving shit and mistreating from them.
PD: Hate the way Jimmy and Kim lie when everyone know the truth, same level hypocrisy Walter White had.
Chet Hanks haha, makes sense
That footage of the very good dog riding down the escalator is a special gift that the extra 30 minutes gives us viewers.
That invisible car payoff was so good.
Man fuck Tony's mom. The worst human being in a show where gangsters, corrupted cops and rats reign supreme.
Overall a great episode of looming tensions and ambiguity of the unknown.
Fuck this episode for making me rewind to check her hand and then not showing both her hands.
Most of the episode was good story with exceptional acting, but the ending makes no sense, unless you are a TV show writer that needs June to be in constant danger next season too.
Well the game just got 64% less interesting without Cam in the house.
I case no one noticed, this whole episode was loosely based on the true story of The Hart Family Massacre .
Fun ending to this episode. Did she decline the sleepover because the room looked dirty? (Per earlier hotel room convo with the wise Carole) Or was Midge dissatisfied with Lenny’s critique of her act, knowing that there were flaws and disappointed at his silver tongue?
