jack johnson· editedSo, what did it mean? Because Peruvian is a nationality just like American or Canadian. And there are white Peruvians, as well black Peruvians, mestizo Peruvians, indigenous Peruvians, East Asian Peruvians, etc.

PrezI 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
There was never a plot. As things stand it’s no different than the beginning: Paperboy is rapping and Earn is assisting him. Van and Earn will forever be in some sort of limbo because they have a kid. The end.

YA ICEMAN ACEWait are you saying it's above or below? Because Succession is definitely the best show on TV rn
Edit: oh wait are you just saying category like it's completely different so there's no point ranking/comparing vs. Atlanta? Because that I'd definitely agree with
And what's so great about Succession?

Like I said, those first 2 seasons were the ‘trojan horse’
If donald had pitched this season out the gate fx woulda never picked it up.
Ppl really thought this was gon be just a blacker and edgier ‘Dave’ or ‘Community’ and i love at the very least he’s outwardly defying that
How could Atlanta be like Dave when it came out first?

Lmao I think peoples problem is that there are whole episodes now where none of these things are anywhere in focus
Apr 9, 2022·3 repliesnot surprised this is such a polarizing episode
interesting they chose to focus on the white liberal in this situation instead of a southern republican. feel like reparations in this form would lead to a lot of violence and anger which I would've liked to see the episode portray more
opening scene was kinda deep in retrospect. black guy getting sent to the back of the line while generic liberal white guy was literally drowning out discrimination with NPR lol. office scenes were funny too
not too sure about the ending tho. the magical honky who comes to explain it all and accept the responsibility yet is unable to live with it rang a bit false. then the denouement of the white guy finally accepting his loss of power and joking around with minorities seemed a forced happy ending
idk, reparations is a near impossible topic to tackle but I feel like Atlanta could've done it a bit better than this. would've been cool to see various characters going through this journey
also, if episode 1 was a dream, why not make this a dream too and have the 4 main characters playing different random roles. would give it a nice balance of having these episodic episodes but still including the characters and adding to their stories

Ima wait til the full season is out but so far nothing has touched Barbershop, Woods and Teddy.
Not saying it's bad but Woods is overrated
I'd put episode 4 and 1 of this season above it

Both episode 1 and 4 are specifically Earns dreams and do not contain any of the main cast

It’s about what it’s always been about lol, tackling black themes and the experience.
That’s not what I viewed the show when I first saw it. I viewed it as Earn and Paper Boi’s story. With those themes woven in

what makes you think episode 4 was Earn's dream?
I was saying, it would be cool if Earn, Van, Paperboy, and Darius appeared in the dreams as random characters, so it's still Atlanta

I feel like there might be a meaning to the numbers they showed on screen during this episode. 695 the address of the office building, 625 the address of his wife's house, the pool said 4 feet 6 inches and 5 feet is visible too close to Earnest's body
maybe 666 referring to Earnest or just 5s being emphasized for some reason

Really felt what Earnest said about slavery not being long ago/white people acting like it's buried in the past. Apartheid was still here in the early 90s. Just a few years before I was born, black people were openly discriminated against by white people and even the country's own government
It's wild to me that everyone is expected to just move on from that and act like nothing happened - Apr 9, 2022allmygirlsdoyoga
