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:

I agree with this. Atlanta has broken a lot of the regular storytelling rules, it's kind of infuriating as someone who loves exposition.

I think there is a Curb Your Enthusiasm element to it where Glover wants to make what he wants with no thought to the storyline.

I agree that the episodes didn't flow. The season finale wasn't a finale lol.

So is the consensus that Clark did his manager dirty or that his manager took the fall willingly?

WHAT rap money? Al told his dealer he wasn’t making jack shyt on the music. He needed a new plug to keep moving drugs.

Darius told him at the beginning of Episode 2 to “not worry your TRAPPING soul” cause he wss gonna hook him up with a new plug.


Al was selling drugs up until at LEAST episode 8 (Woods)

If you was paying attention they were getting money this season. That Paperboi song went GOLD independently. It's why Earn was wasting his money talking about stuntin' and what not because it was the first time he ever had real money. The thing with Atlanta is that it is not going to show you outright that they are blowing up, but it clue you in that they were. The last episode shown you have far Earn actually gotten by blowing PAST his old job like it was nothing. They were going on a EUROPEAN TOUR. And you assume they wasn't making money? Paperboi wasn't trying to return back to that life after he accepted to take his career seriously.
