Trakt really should implement a feature that stop people from rating shows that aren't even out yet.
Louise's character development throughout the seasons is beautiful. What a sweet episode!
Just wow. The subtle change in Crosshair's voice when Mayday was buried in the snow, you could hear genuine compassion and concern in him for the first time. Dee Bradley Baker is a vocal wizard.
Idris Elba is carrying this show so hard.
lol the Crosshair episodes are the best in the season by far , ironic considering the batch arent in them at all
An interesting episode about sons and chafing at the lives their father figures have thrust them into. Chris finds out that being a made man is tougher than he expected and seems to have reluctance about it despite his initial excitement once he sees the black bird. Jackie Aprille Jr. is trying to live up to his father and uncle's role and chafing at Tony and his organization.
And then Tony himself connects his fainting issues to seeing how his father made a living, and it's a big bundle of the meat, the violence, and sexualization. And then when AJ feels like he's being groomed for the same kind of life as his father, and gets leadership through violence while he's cheered on by his dad, he faints too. There's a lot of interesting parallels in the episode and it works well as a sort of sequel to Season 1's "Down Neck" that plays in the same theme of generational neglect and inherited problems.
This is the kind of episode that makes me agree with everyone who says that James Gandolfini was an important pillar on this series, I think he made The Sopranos something better than what it could have been without him.
Enjoyed this episode less than others before it. The whole "fixing portrait" story was very far-fetched. No one would try so hard to fix it... you dropped it, you hang it back on the wall, run away.
with the way this ended, I’m quite content on completing the series here. Or make it anthology to explore more platonic relationships with different ppl. idk just spitballing
PB and Finn being just friends is nice
the parallels of both pb & marcy and gary & marshal was so so incredible. maybe the best work of the show so far!!!
the underlying theme of parents this ep was so well layed-out too martin saying he likes baby finn made me cry but it's so fine (it isnt at all)
Funny how the best episodes of the Bad Batch in this season is when its not about the Bad Batch and they don’t appear.
First season takes a bit of time finding its voice, but this season is humming along nicely from the start on a tonal balance between goofy irrelevance, fluidly animated sight gags, and an overarching but gentle weight of real-world concerns/relationships. Love its throughline of conveying the latter's unavoidable messiness in a reassuring, life-affirming way.
Okay, I have to admit, I liked the ending, it was subtle and emotionally bittersweet. Probably don't even need season 2 at all.
I found it pretty difficult to sit through this episode., it felt like filler.
I understand the writers needed a reason for Sylvia to be fired but I find it hard to believe that any person above the age of 15 would ever think that it's a viable option to try and fix the painting instead of going to HR and admit what happened since it's a legitimate accident. And more importantly why on Earth does Sylvia put the 'fixed' painting back at all?
What this episode highlighted to me is that Seth Rogen is the weak link. I usually enjoy watching Sylvia, but as soon as Will got involved, I found myself so annoyed by his character.
Such a thoughtful and creative way to visualize autism, and the stuff with Scat? Beautiful and heartbreaking.
