You know what the weirdest part of this being the best show on TV is? It's not even that good! There is almost zero nuance or subtlety. They all just say and do exactly the thing that every episode and every scene is about. They just say it out loud. They just do the thing. In a way that I don't think will benefit from re-watching. This might be a show that I can only enjoy once. But my god do I enjoy it this first time around

I think it is supposed to be like a back end software/coding/social media type of thing.

I think it's like if Elon Musk ran a Netflix/Facebook hybrid but ten years ago

Spoiler: show

gTom right? Who gave Logan the heads up?

I love this show. Ill gladly keep watching. Seeing Roman crumble and try to hold on this his fantasy relationship with his dad but finally realizing he's a pawn just like all the other kids....

You could nominate every single member of the main cast and they'd all be deserving. Same for most of the supporting roles.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
