Yo, this is maybe the 3rd or 4th time y'all complain about an episode LIVE knowing when you think in retrospect it's underline brilliance. By now, I would of THOUGHT y'all realize Atlanta is more than trying to make jokes and laugh at pure fukkery. It puts in a multi-layered messages and create allegorical narratives to address several real-life issues that black people experienced. In this episode, for example, it is CLEAR that the entire allegory is summed up by Darius by explaining that life is a simulation, everything is fake to which Van sees it herself and realized that the entire time NOBODY WAS REAL, even the party itself was phony. Every person in there were fake AF and doing shyt to front, acting in a type of behavior that's FAKE. Everything that occur, that was shown, and was perceived was NOT REAL. I do not have to seek for laughter to peep game in what they are trying to see. Y'all may still seek for that, but Atlanta EARNED the right to be more than just that.

Actually this was prolly the weakest episode of the whole series. Darius was the only good part about it. This shyt shoulda been scrapped altogether. Van went to a party, looked around. Then left. That was the episode:mjlol:


The theme of the episode was that people are so hung up on their social media personas that they neglect the reality of their true lives.

Van is sad because of her breakup with Earn. To “get back” at him and feel better she wanted to stunt on instagram by taking a pic with Drake. She didn’t even want to fukk him, she just wanted a picture. To that end she left her daughter behind (which represents real life)

In an ironic twist Darius was the realist one there...

Nah, this joint was light. Every episode doesn't have to be groundbreaking...it'll be alright. :therethere:
