Rank 'em. The first 2 were really good, third not so much. Logan's not nearly as compelling of a figure anymore.
1. 1
2. 2
3. 3

So far I'm liking season 2 more than 1. (Only 2 episodes in but it seems like a much more confident version of itself)

The most interesting character in this is Tom. The second most interesting character in this is Shiv Roy's ass

We’re only two episodes from being caught up. Wonder why they only went with 9 episodes this third season.

Don't tell anyone but I think she might be my perfect woman. I think she gains a little weight or something in season three and some of the outfits she wears are just

As this winner of the character tournament, I deem this show... Okay. You're all sleeping on Karolina. Way better than Shiv.

Honestly, I don't know why this show is so loved. Through 3 seasons absolutely nothing of consequence has happened. It's just the same story told over and over with no advancement or consequence. In season 1 with the whole vague shredding of unspecified documents was obviously just a thing they planned on using later but weren't sure how. None of the characters have grown- they give you just enough moments of not being absolutely terrible people so you can't view them all entirely as villains. Which works with compelling characters (tony soprano, Omar, etc) but not these ones. There are moments where the attempts at comedic moments land, but even attempting to view it as a comedy doesnt work for me.
And I dont get the occasional moments where it just goes into "The Office" style camera zooms for a few shots, then doesn't do it again for 4 episodes.
It's okay, and im sure ill watch it when it comes back... but I don't get it.
