Loved the finale, a lot to unpack, I'll just touch on the last few scenes

LOL@ at Tracy, but sad at the same time, good dude but institutionalized more or less, "I got chinese food". Kinda did him wrong though.

Love how they can switch from surreal and dreamy, "fever dream" is how Hiro and Glover describe it, to naturalistic, capturing the rush to get on a plane, and the TSA lines, and Earn's actions in the line, in a way that everyone who has flown can relate to.

*I'll always have love for Hatfield-Jackson, I flew in from Spain, with gorgeous woman who sat next to me, and spent the layover having tea with her, talking like we knew each other for years

*That first international flight is stressful like that

*That there was no way they could have known that after they wrote and filmed this, the Julez Santana incident would take place is ironic and kind of hilarious

*I OPT OUT :deadmanny:

I'm not sure why people believe there won't be a season 3. I can't imagine FX cancelling and I understand the cast is getting busy but it doesn't take more than two-three months to shoot. IIRC they shot all of season 2 from late September-early December 2017 and were still able to release this season in March.

I believe there will be a season 3...but i wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the last season.

Shows like this..Chappelle and McGruder’s Boondocks aren’t made to be around for too long. So enjoy it while you can..

did you see the donald glover tweets 2 months ago?

i think it will probably get extended for one more, but dude was clearly unhappy with FX and put em on blast.

Apparently there was some foreshadowing for the gun situation while earn and van were in the classroom. Peep the message on the top left

Atlanta kinda reminds me of shonen anime...

A lot of filler episodes and stakes building...but in the end...it's underwhelming...

They could've really deleted like 4 episodes and nothing would've changed...

Like that fukking Drake episode...the Barbershop Episode...the Darius Episode...had absolutely nothing to do with anything whatsoever...


Season 2 was trash...treating each episode like a one shot when you got an 11 episode season and each episode is 23 mins long is fukking stupid...

The finale wasn't even a finale...

It was just another episode...like that shyt could've been the opening episode...or the episode in the middle of the season...

The Atlanta isn't a sit-com...sit-coms have like 20 episode seasons...and you are stuck with the same 3 characters...

Atlanta is a drama...that likes to make every character feel like like the protagonist...but...there are rules to storytelling and you can't just resolve some shyt with a gun in a backpack...

Like the season should've just ended up with Earn getting the fukk beat out of him and Al looking at him like...:francis::yeshrug:
