S03.E01: Just the Tip

[formerlyfreedom]

Quote

In the wake of Virginia being shot, the crew must regroup to face their off-kiltered new adversaries, Mac and Melba Lovestone, so they can run Bayside Rapture Casino like the bosses they are.

Season three premiere! Airing Sunday, June 9, 2019.

[Supagirl]

So glad these ladies are back! The Busby Berkeley/En Vogue production number was everything.

[emma675]

Good lord, this show is just pure trashy fun and I love it. I can't wait for deep thoughts Virginia. I hope there is a musical number in every single episode. 

[AnimeMania]

Boy, this show is stupid!

Desna you are not a BOSS!

I did enjoy the musical number!

[Albanyguy]

Glad to see Roller still hasn't learned to button his shirt.

Polly rappelling from the window had me on the floor.

I was surprised to learn who the shooter was, and kind of disappointed.  I know the "feeling like a minority in your own country" thing was played for laughs, but it was just disgusting.

Anyway, the new antagonists are weird/crazy.  Desna might have bitten off more than she can chew.

So now Roller is supposed to be some amazing lover?  He couldn't even give Virginia orgasms.

Good to have you back, show! Desna is leading them down another violent crime ridden drama that won't end well. I like the wacked out Casino owners though. They promise to up the crazy this season.

Desna thinks that she is badder than she actually is. She is an incompetent criminal. She is lucky to be alive and is fortunate to have family and friends to bail her out of the trouble she gets them into. 

Somehow Roller looks hotter this season. Did he take out the gold teeth? Whatever it is, nice. So UncleDaddy didn't kill Roller's parents and his lover is the one who shot Virginia. That is a twist. 

Not sure how I feel about this Virginia with deep thoughts. The doctor's reaction to Dean's bloodlust was too funny.

I knew Jennifer and Bryce were going to end staying in Palmetto. They are so uninhibited and ridiculous having foreplay with their kids right there. 

Ann and her ex- need to stay away from each other. Surely, Ann can find a girlfriend without all that baggage.

Polly rappelling down the building was hilarious. Loved the En Vogue dance number at the end.

I knew at the end that was Toby in the moto leathers, and I was also disappointed with the "stranger in your own country" line. It fits with the show, but that doesn't make it right.

My bonkers summer show is back! The musical number at the end was great, as were the women's clothes. The styling on this show is amazing. I'm sure it's a ton of work, but it also has to be amazing fun, given that there's no such thing as over the top. For the men or the women, hee. Special shoutout to Uncle Daddy not wanting his John Varvatos shirt messed up. 

[Joimiaroxeu]

Roller's looking mighty tasty again. And Desna. IS. FIRE!

Lol, now Polly's passing for White. She is a mess.

Get in, get off, get out. You go, Quiet Ann. Handle your business, girl.

Jennifer's lion's mane hairdo at the end was magnificent.

Still loving the dance breaks.

Aw, Toby. You're probably going to end up dead. Dean is a dead shot.

Not sure about the guy playing Mac. There seems to be some public uncertainty on whether he actually has Native American heritage. If he doesn't, it's a bad look IMO for the show to have him playing a Native American role when there are actual Native American actors who could be hired. It's 2019 FCOL.

The show must've made a last minute change on the last name of the casino co-owners Mac and Melba. Wikipedia says it's Locklear but recent PR articles say it's Lovestone.

I think in his case it is indeed the size of the boat and not the motion of the ocean. 🙄

That's Michael Horse, whom you might remember from Twin Peaks as Deputy Hawk. Horse does claim Native American heritage.

Its good to know that high wasted pants are all a part of Gods plan, Virginia. Oh God, I already love deep thoughts Virginia. This show is such classic trashy summer fun, I am so happy to see it back again.

Bold of you to assume that Roller even knows what a button is 😉

Desna: I thought I told your black-ass to stay in Tampa!

Me: Dead. ☠

Also,

Desna: Polly, I had no idea you could cook soul food. What are you, like, an octoroon?

So true. If she is that shook by having to kill Ruval and Zlata, who were both plotting against her, then she is not ready.

Ken's face in that exchange was hilarious the more Dean talked. "I'll take a knee and a gun for my beliefs." Dean was hilarious this episode. "Dean - get in the house!" "I can't - my lyft is almost here."

I loved her eating cheetos in the hospital spouting nonsense. Love her!

I hope they give Ann something else to do this season other than fight with her cop gf.

Roller has gone from my least favorite character to one of my favorites. "Desna -those people are into some next level shit! They were torturing some lady!" "Where is she?" "In the back seat." I love he is still driving that janky Subaru.

This show is so bonkers but I love it!

[HorrrGoodnight]

I will admit I was DWW (distracted while watching) and missed a lot of details, but thanks to you guys I'm up to speed. This thing is getting more and more outrageous with the storyline but that's part of the charm 😂

Loved Desna's white suit. Serving mob casino boss realness.

I think all the criminals on the show are incompetent—there are just different degrees of it. And let's face it, if everything ran smoothly this would be a very boring show.
