so far s4 has really blown my expectations out of the water even though it's just barely started. from the beginning of the show everything from even the most subtle details are written so deliberately that I feel like there is never a boring moment… this show is insane. I really like how pretty much everyone gets their own moment where it seems like they are going to win everything before getting it ripped out of their hands lol. I think this season is turning me into a conhead, atm his moments have been my favorite in s4. though the insanity of the tom and greg dynamic has always been my favorite. sucks about nic braun being a pest though because I feel like I can't really enjoy greg scenes nearly as much anymore even though I still love the way he is written as a character. it makes the minor drama about jeremy strong's method acting look like basically nothing in comparison. shit like this is why I hesitate to fawn over 3d tbh

Nothing can take my enjoyment of this scene away from me! tbh it helps that I never actually liked Greg. Laughed at him, yes, and he's a good character but he's cringe personified. I think I actually physically cringed when he kept calling himself and Tom the disgusting brothers lmao.

at least he is just mirroring what a pest he is in the show. if his character was meant to be the "good guy" then it was be more jarring, but let's be real Greg is definitely the kind of guy to do what Nicolaus did. i know what you mean though, i can no longer laugh when he is being pervy for comic effect.
thankfully he hasn't been in it too much so far and the rest of the show has been fucking amazing.

did you guys listen to the podcast for the latest episode? its worth listening to.

also i read somewhere in an interview that brian cox said he "wasn't like logan" and didnt know why people were scared of him irl–but then i listened to his interview on that latest podcast, uh yeah, I can see why people approach him that way.

>uh yeah, I can see why people approach him that way
kek. i haven't listened to the podcast (but i will, thanks for the recommendation) but any interview or appearance I've seen with him gives off a very strong personality and his booming voice must be terrifying in contexts where he is genuinely pissed off/angry IRL. sure, he is more of a humanitarian and an all-round more pleasant, good-humoured person than Logan but you can totally tell why people might be scared of him.

will give this a listen this evening!

i actually think tom is more likely to have some kind of villain arc than roman going off the preview for the next episode. roman is going to launch a brand new rocket right onto mencken's dick before logan's body is even cold though. i like roman and gerri "together" too but it seems dead. at least mencken is less boring than swedish elon musk

i agree with tom villain arc, honestly fucking hate tom so much obvi his impotence is annoying as hell but whats really distasteful is his slimy brand of ruthlessness, i always thought he was like the opposite of the kids- emotional, thoughtful, and sensitive (relatively, and only to those he can get something from) in his language but absolutely cold, power hungry, and self interested in his character.

No. 289569

>>289568
hm didnt phrase this so well because obviously the kids are deeply careless/thoughtless and (and shiv and roman are actively cruel) as a central part of their characters but i was thinking about how they all use language as an armour (most obviously in s1 kendall with his aggressive business jock lingo) but are still extremely emotional characters. ok idgaf about explaining what i meant anymore

No. 289623

>>289568
>sensitive in his language but absolutely cold, power hungry, and self interested in his character
i get what you mean nona. that's a good observation. the kids are up front about being power hungry and like you say, it's a shield for what are some very sensitive and fragile emotions underneath. with tom, he doesn't even have the balls to be up front about what he wants (power) and his soft, sensitive exterior is all an act for what is a very empty shell underneath. i think the same could be said for greg too.

>Synopsis: As Roman, Kendall, and Shiv navigate a misstep with Matsson, the Waystar team discusses a pivotal recommendation to the board ahead of the GoJo sale. Angling for position, Kendall seeks support from Stewy and Hugo

i find skarsgard's character pretty boring so i'm not really looking forward to seeing him in this episode, roman is much more interesting paired with/being manipulated by mencken. i think both kendall and tom are going to have a go at getting ceo, i also like the theory that tom could get greg to leak something about logan's death and i'm curious what was in his "logistics" folder. iirc cruises was briefly mentioned last episode so maybe that problem won't stay gone forever?

ep4 spoiler ahead anyway nonas how are we feeling shivs current situation will wind up? personally i love abortion and divorce. feeling kind of iffy about this plotline though, on the one hand i get annoyed when this is made a central part of a womans character development but on the other hand it kind of is something straight women go through. really worried itll be mishandled and if we do get abortion era itll be framed as her like throwing away any chance of a normal life which imo would be cheap and tone deaf. would be interesting if she keeps it and we get a gone girl sort of youre trapped in here with me thing from her, i wonder if this is something specified in the prenup?

i think the succ writers are too smart to do a generic ass plotiline with her pregnncey. i don't think it will be presentzd at somethign positive. they've been really good at showing the kind of misogyny shiv faces o far and i'm sure the pregnancy will play into that. After all the first time it was mentioned it was tom trying to cintrol her in s3.

>>290175
i doubt we'll ever know. If you look closely at the doc there's a slo a mention of his sister rose, i think it says he wants to get buried with a picture of her. i hope we'll finally get some deets on her (and connnor's ma)

likely is a contributing factor.
personally i hope the trailer scene of tom saying youve hurt me more than you could possibly imagine boo hoo whatever is a reaction to her having an abortion and only telling him afterwards i will be popping bottles.i hate tom so fucking much (mcfadyen had a really excellent performance with his disgusting slimy little lovebomb on the stairs, skin crawling shit)
unfortunately i am getting the sense that this season will be kendall doomed to repeat logan and (way more tragic and tortured IMO shiv for best character ever) shiv doomed to repeat caroline.

i kind of want shiv to leak the s1 drowning incident to fuck over kendall. i do wish they could all be friends but unfortunately i can never forgive any male character for how they have treated my queen this episode…

he's definitely trying to get her on side but I think she is getting what she wants out of it too. maybe she sensed the brothers were trying to tank it on purpose and that's why she gave the subtle suggestions to mattson. she is such a dark horse i love her.
I also wonder if him telling Shiv about the blood thing was a way to try and make her fear him or perhaps just a test (he mentions having terrible boundaries so this might have been his way of testing them).

he's already high on his own ego despite not having any of logan's business sense. and he does his best to shideline shiv at every turn (whereas roman at least keeps trying to include her.)

i think either something rly bad happens to kendall (suicide or OD or some shit) or he ends up becoming logan 2.0. i don't think jesse armstrong will want to to do a very definite ending with all loose ends neatly tied up.
most likely the cycle of abuse will continue with someone else as logan
or maybe waystar will implode (kendall is already making completely retarded decisions on a whim) and the kids will be left with no purpose
also i hope connor messes up the election for menken or something
anyway yeah no happy ending. It's pretty obvious the kids are too fucked up

i reallllyyyyyyy want him to kill himself soooo bad but he probably wont, he'll just become logan
i think waystar imploding or being left on the cusp of implosion, or matson basically ousting all the roys from the board/company is more likely that i first thought and could be in line with that thing macfadyen said about the ending being "slightly optimistic" or w/e (iirc)- like the kids are suddenly cut off from that insane world and have to actually build their own lives away from logans ghost. that would be nice i think though could also probably catalyse a kendall suicide moment

I think the funniest most cathartic ending would be if the company imploded (like anons speculating above mentioned) but the most realistic imo is Kendall fully becoming Logan and running the company. Though I think that this rides on the siblings staying together as a team because every time they’ve fucked up so far this season individually one of them picks up the pieces ..but also the status quo will continue to reinforce itself no matter what they do I don’t know!! I don’t know and I’m terrified to find out! I love this show gosh I love businessmen standing around and talking.

god i hate kendall and roman even more after this episode. also, i have only one hope for this season and it's that i don't want shiv to settle down with tom. he's a snake. he is out of options and obviously sucking up to her because without her he's a goner. even in the last episode when he and greg went inside shiv's crying room, greg was setting up their "options for tonight". i can't stand how everywhere online people are falling for his good guy act

I'm on my first watch and is it me or season 3 is really draggy? I don't know, I enjoyed 1 and 2 and it almost feels like 3 becomes more of a regular drama with occasional ridiculous moments that I seriously have to suspend my disbelief with. Characters that I enjoyed before (Shiv, Roman, Tom, Kendall) have bored or annoyed me through the season or felt really redundant. Does season 4 pick up?

I could see her a crypto terf. She was openly a democrat and woke to contrast her father's image before she started intimidating rape victims. She isn't a feminist character at all imo.

No. 295992

>>295966
She's neither but finds whole gender thing ridiculous and laughs at ugly men in dresses. At the same time, she probably one of those who'd say "I don't need feminism, I'm strong enough on my own, and this, this, and that doesn't concern me, this and this never happened to me, this and that never happens to you if you…" etc. because she was growing up with her brothers and was most influenced by her father, works in male-dominated industry, and doesn't even have any girlfriends. She wants to be perceived as equal and is most likely in denial that she might be not, and that certain things might not go as she wants because of her sex. She pretends that sex doesn't have any impact on anything. She's too privileged and "has" to be cynical so the struggles of others don't really concern her. But she can pretend to have certain leanings depending on who she talks to or what (public) image is more beneficial to create, only it's unlikely she would pretend to be an avid supporter.
(there could be something contradicting what I've just said in previous seasons that I've forgotten)

No. 296026

>>295992
best shiv gender politics take. every time she's treated the way other women are in the series it shatters her, she felt that they were just women and she was a person, and when she's reminded that she'll never be anything but a woman in the misogynistic eyes of her father, her brothers, and the whole corporate world it kills her
agree that shes explicitly somewhat of a political chameleon based on what benefits or conveniences her in a given social situation. i think she also tries to have some priciples (her democrat schtick and how she does tend to be the one to call out the right wing insanity first), but because principles are antithetical to corporate success it's not really possible for her to hold them.

she throws other women under the bus in the hopes that men might grant her some modicum of power or respect. sad! i could fix her……..

Kek, I really wish the series stopped at Roman tonguing the cheese. All was well

Also, side note, did Roman actually like Gerri and not just for weird sex reasons? I never thought he did though for some reason the camera focusing on him when Gerri came up on the screen made me wonder. Also, I feel like the only real winners were the people that ship these two. Congratulations.

this is incredible! I wish penisgate wasn't their concluding arc. On the upside seeing Gerri doing good and probably living rent-free in his head is amazing.

s4 was decidedly less comedic than the rest but i guess they really had to up the stakes fir the final season. else it would have been too repetitive

Definitely in season 4 they leaned heavily into the drama, before it came out I was hoping it would still be balanced with comedy/satire but after it was revealed it was the last season I figured it would have to be more intense - it ended great without there being a “conclusion” to the character’s stories so there’s plenty of room for speculation which I love…and I do wish there had been 5 seasons to fit with the 5 act play motif but I really hope they don’t make any kind of spin off or anything, i feel like it would ruin something perfect and also I never want to see Greg on screen again unless he immediately gets hit by a truck and dies after 1 second

My partner thinks this is Roman casually brining up that he and Shiv have done it before, disguised as his usual act. I didn't pick up on it at all and still feel like it's just Roman saying stuff to irritate her.

kind of true but i hate how this infantilises her so much. like imo it was more like what you said, but i do think hurting kendall was a big part of it, like vengeance for the absolutely horrible way her brothers treated her throughout s4 and probably their whole lives. in the board meeting she finally was in a position in which she had tangible power, of course she was going to actually use it after being snubbed and sidelined consistently.
its horrible and tragic how the most stable and best option for her and her child is being locked in a loveless, angry marriage with an unstable worm man who betrays her at the drop of a hat and will never support or even care at all about her ambitions and desires, but that is the position shes in. its a testament to how awfully her brothers have treated her that she willingly choses to go with fucking tom, and it shows that logically the closest to power you can get as a woman, even a very ambitious and capable woman, is fucking/childbearing for the ceo.

It's bizarre that person calls defending her misogynistic when they act like her having any dark feelings makes her logan.
