Succession

July 8, 2022 Bald Move Prestige

You’re familiar with the saga of Succession, what about the saga of making this episode about Succession? Life would be easier if we all loved this, but the world isn’t perfect. We checked out the pilot and season two finale. Why doesn’t this show work for us when things like Always Sunny do? I guess that’s the difference between buffoons and rich buffoons. There are great performances, design, and camera work, so on paper it’s well made, but still not for us.

S03E05 – Seven Minutes of Terror

July 8, 2022 Hi Bob! A For All Mankind Podcast

This episode gave us good scenes in bad storylines. After the space burial reminiscent of 2001: A Space Odyssey aesthetics, this interplanetary epic takes us through some emotion laden scenes. Danny is doing dumb stuff, Margo is doing dangerous stuff, and Sergei looks like the stuffing has been beat out of him. What does Aleida’s future look like if Margo’s secrets come to light? And are there cosmonaut defectors in the future?

S04E02 – Well Enough Alone

July 5, 2022 Watching Westworld

The metaphors are coming down heavily with the use of the book My Father’s Dragon and the opera Don Giovanni. In a show where people who seem like they should be dead are alive, we can’t trust our own eyes. Does everything in this reality have an explanation, or are we watching an abstracted reality? Is Christina unconsciously carrying an encryption key? Join us as we discuss this and more theories in this episode breakdown.

409 – Nine: The Piggyback

July 1, 2022 Dungeons and Demogorgons

That was a metalhead finale we can cheer for. It came down to the wire and Eleven’s arms were extending while she screamed, of course. BUT the Duffer Brothers delivered a gut punch that made us remember why we love this show. While Jim is condemning pineapple pizza to The Upside Down, A.Ron is happy to report that this episode delivers in stakes, pacing, and surprises.
