    I feel like most new writing these days stems from social media.

    I mean seriously you have people tweeting all day, that serves as the basis for the dialogue and then you just tweak it from there

    Yeah there’s a lot of ideas that I feel like stem from Twitter and make it on the big screen. But I feel like this topic woulda been better executed on random acts of flyness. Idk if anybody seen that show but it addresses a lot of black topics but not in a “social media” way. It’s one of them shows that I’m not sure how I got green lit by the bosses. Amazing show

    Damn i wish this episode was longer…

    Could’ve been a whole movie fr

  • On one hand I get the criticism, knowing that this show only had sixteen more ~20 minute episodes in the entirety of its runtime, I understand why people can get frustrated when two have already been completely devoid of the main cast and characters.

    On the other hand this was still immaculate, brilliant, A1 television and storytelling.

    nah this episode wasnt it

    it started good, i thought it was gonna build to some weird s***, with the black guy at starbucks and maybe he was like f***ing his wife or sum , or sum even more crazy

    but then it turned into a cliche episode about race like
    and i hate the trope of the random guy comes outta nowhere and tells the plot then does something weird

    I wouldn’t say that would have made anything better but I thought they were going there when the daughter begged him to come home on some weird s***

    Thought the dude on phone from coffee shop was in that car following him

    It would be dope to find out why he left Space Jam 2. Thought that woulda been dope based off the visuals of the show and the same person who made that show handling such an iconic property

    lol this season outside of the narrative advancements is exactly like long form random acts of fly ness

    Which can be dope as it’s own spinoff thing but niggas wanna see Darius paperboi and earn shenanigans

  • Apr 9, 2022

    Niggas don’t got to tell me how f***ed up white people are ad nauseam lol. We get it dog lol or at least tie it into what the gang already doing like the blackface or white guilt s***.

    This s*** ain’t for “us” lol

    Hoping that they don’t alternate each episode like this between narrative and abstract racial lessons for the rest of the shows run

    Chapelle show did this better

    The first couple seasons were an evolution of that style of humor without forcing it like with Earn and the dollar bill at the movie theater and the gun but these niggas is making whole pilots for a different show Lmao

    s*** didn't have any subtlety to it man. they literally had the redneck spell out the entire theme of the episode. which like... is this episode for white people who didn't already understand this?

    I can't speak for everyone but for me I dislike this episode solely based on execution. I don't care that it doesn't follow the main cast, I thought three slaps was great.

    I do feel like the execution was a little off. I think satire can get away with being unsubtle. To me, that’s one of the charms of satire.

    But on further reflection I think I’ve identified a problem with this episode. It’s an issue of character.

    I liked the concept, but as far as following a character for a whole episode… this guy was bland. Bland by design, but bland is bland. There wasn’t a whole lot of interior life to him.

    I think it was a strong idea that needed to be fleshed out a little more, to approach something as ambitious as they were trying.

    I have no problem with diversions like this. They took a risk, and to me, they hit the mark at like a B+. I’m definitely not mad at it.

    I haven't watched the first 2 seasons since they aired so I don't remember them perfectly, but I feel like the show used to have more plot. especially season 1. now there's basically none (so far). the show has always had really well written parables about life and race, so it's not like that's new, but I can see how some people might not feel it as much without plot mixed in. some people want a show about paper boi & earn's career rise and all that

    This

    Without even getting into the self righteous episode descriptions that indicate they feel they doing some ground breaking s*** wit the basic racial lessons they’re peddling lol

    At least just keep one of the main characters in the “detour” episodes a la Paperboi and the forest, Van and Earn at the party, and Darius / The MJ knockoff

    That was the moment where it jumped the shark for me too like dog.

    Like are they fr spelling it out for mfs right now? That was some full house level end of episode moral of the story exposition s*** lmao
