Episode 3
|
Only thing this show is missing is a dope intro. Though I do love the title cards
Laurie Blake! I love Jean Smart, she’s always great. Fake robbery was kinda fun. Senator Keene played by “NOT GREAT BOB!”
Love the Warhol style art on Laurie’s wall
Sounds like Dan got locked up??
Blink and you miss it “Black Freighter” motel
Funeral scene was great
The Veidt scenes are so fun. Jeremy Irons is perfect. Ooo the classic costume!
A Manhattan vibrator NIIIICE
Great ep |

I watched the first episode when it aired but decided to stop so that I could read the graphic novel first | |

Episode 4
|
Each ep feels more and more Lindelofy. Especially the opening of this one at the lil farmhouse, great opening
Lube man sliding into the drain was a fun wtf moment
They must've had so much fun coming up with the Veidt scenes. They're so entertaining |

Episode 5
|
That Squid money shotttt. Loved that. Excited for a Looking Glass centric ep, I always like Tim Blake Nelson
Omg that poor dog no
Ooo Nostalgia, fun
Oh god, in walks fucking nutcase TRIXIE!
lol the fake Pale Horse Spielberg movie in place of Schindler's List. That's fun
Love how many mirror shots of Wade they're doing throughout this one
I knew the senator was gonna be up to some sorta shit. That Veidt squid reveal scene was really good
I looooved the Veidt outer space reveal. And the reason he had launched so many bodies up there. And Clair de Lune playing
Oh noooo Ive been worried Wane could die this ep. Hope that ending doesn't mean hes toast
Loved this ep

Episode 6
|
Mannnnn. Maybe the best yet
Veryyy well directed and choreographed and cut, some fun stuff throughout. By the end it felt like Damon's next Constant/International Assassin in terms of the journey the character goes through and comes back from by the end
Hooded Justice reveal was p heavily hinted at but still great. When I figured he was HJ I just assumed they decided to swap the race and certainly didn't think they'd address it, but him donning the sliver of white face added a whole new element, I loved that. A mask beneath a mask. Clever stuff
Jovan Adepo carried, he's good. Glenn Fleshler also always good in the worst way
Also I really love how they blatantly shit on Ryan Murphy with American Hero Story. From the gratuitousness of his garbo shows down to casting one of his usual actors in the fake Hooded Justice role

Episode 7
|
Man oh man. What an ep, probably the best yet
- knew the Manhattan twist from before I started unfortunately. The image of the actor in Manhattan makeup hasn’t been possible to avoid over the past year. A shame, I wouldn’t have seen it coming otherwise. Still really great. I’ve been listening to the Reznor song for awhile now but it’s even better in context
- glad to see looking glass likely survived
- loved the “I think I’ll try to be a blue man” line. Scary realization that he’s been trying to recreate Jon’s accident (I assume). I hope to see him get fried in the finale or something
- didn’t see the Crawford’s wife moment coming
Overall worked on every level for me. Angela’s flashbacks were seamless, they really nail transitions and the whole show has just been edited perfectly. That transition from Angela’s eyes to those stained glass windows...what a beaut. Nearly every scene in this one was so intriguing

and the song made it even better | |

Yeah lol, I’ve seen it dozens of times all over the place. Honestly I saw it like the day after the episode aired so I likely would’ve been spoiled if I was watching it more or less on time anyway
But also god am I glad I waited and finally finished reading first. Imagine watching this without having read, it would be so weird | |

Done

Solid ending. A little too traditional for this show/Damon though. That kinda surprised me. It wrapped things up but compared to the previous handful of eps it certainly felt weaker and less risk taking. Some good moments though. Leftovers series finale much much better in comparison
Thought for sure we were gonna see Angela fall into the pool and then surface and just start cackling with laugher @ Jon or something. Could've been good. I still liked the final shot though. Certainly doesn't feel ambiguous to me that she got his powers. Almost kinda...fucked up of him! He knew how detached he became and now she would surely become detached from her kids. As a single mother!! smh jon
Whole show was great though, I really enjoyed it. What a run of episodes in the back half. Worthy of its praise |
