I like it. All the criticisms I'm seeing in reviews don't bother me. I like the character development and pace so far. I'm not bothered by the dramatizations and differences from the actual true story. I hope it continues to capture my attention throughout because I'm really looking forward to each episode and I haven't felt that way about a series in a while. I love Lily Gladstone. I was heartbroken she didn't win the Oscar for Killers of the Flower Moon. I hope she has more chances for that kind of recognition in the future. She deserves it.

If trump wins, I doubt they'll be a next year of SNL. He'll get rid of anything that would be making fun of him. People don't seem to be taking his stated agenda seriously.

Sorry to say I'm out. I wanted to like it.

OMG how many of are there out there with this true crime addiction now? I have to have it on to go sleep these days!

Wow, I thought there would be lots of comments on this show. For myself, I didn't quite know what to make of it. It was kind of terrifying, really. But I guess that was the point.

Whatever else is wrong, that bit with the possum was hilarious IMO.

I think JAJ does a great trump. However, as the election grows near I'm among those who have a dread/horror of the real possibility of another trump presidency. None of it is funny to me anymore.

I hope I'm not wrong that Larry David with make an appearance as Bernie Sanders this week. That shit was hilarious. It writes itself as a cold open.

As a big fan of Nate's I enjoyed the show overall. As a scientist the measurements bit cracked me up the most. I fast forwarded through Sarah's WU bit without even trying to see if it was funny. I'm old and have watched SNL from the beginning. I've never had an aversion to a cast member like I have to her. Yet I keep trying to give her a chance. I think I'm giving up now.

I knew that bitch was guilty of something.

Yes. As you said we saw this over and over. The worst part is, I wanted to believe he was a good person so I kept hoping he would be. That final time were he was faced with doing the right thing but it would be really hard and he started hedging it finally seemed more obvious to me. Yet at the end, after I'd given up hope for him, he finally might've done the right thing, for whatever reason.

And through the Kids' Toy section. The contrast, plus being actually plausible made that a great scene.

This was maybe stupid on Tom's part especially since Greg had certainly played both sides on multiple occasions. Or maybe Tom knew it would happen based on his knowledge that Greg was a weasel like he was. I can't get over how telling it was when Shiv got in the car with Tom and he put out his hand and she just laid her hand over his in such a meaningful gesture of the half relationship that they would have. I wish that had been the last scene, not Kendal, because Tom won (for now). Again, Tom flipped the dynamic not only in power but in the actual feelings part of the relationship. He had wanted the marriage to work with some hints at actual love for Shiv. Then at the end Shiv seemed more vulnerable to actual feelings for Tom of at least for wanting to try again. Her keeping the baby might have made her want to stay with Tom on the emotional level. In the end, Shiv became one of the typical Roy women, and the other two remained the failures that they were. In that sense (plus the fact this was her deal, minus her actually being in charge) Shiv won more than the brothers.

Oh for sure she's richer. But like you said that's not the point. They take all the rich stuff for granted. They just want power.

I was cool with Tom getting it. I loved that the power dynamic flipped wrt Shiv and Tom.
