i got the same feeling.

i would be cool with a shortened season to wrap things up over nothing at all though.

4 episodes-8 episodes.

ending with paper boi making it big of course :stopitslime:

Yeah it may be a wrap. If not, it'll be 2022 or 2023 in a short season to end the show.

The good news? Because everyone has been holed up in quarantine, all of Atlanta‘s next two seasons have been written. The bad news? Because of the same pandemic, production on Season 3 won’t commence in time to make the previously earmarked January 2021 premiere date.

“One of the things that’s been an unexpected boon from COVID-19 is that writers have had a lot of time to write, so Donald Glover and his intrepid team … have written everything for Season 3 and 4,” FX Networks chairman John Landgraf shared on Wednesday at an FX Press Day. “However, the availability [of actors] has been pushed back because of the [pandemic].” Landgraf then said he would check in with the production team to lock down a “concrete answer” as to what the cameras might start rolling again.

your stars are but dust on my shoes
"Woods" is an interesting episode. Paperboy's struggle to keep it real, and his personal transformation as he redefines what being real means to him.

I began writing some long winded shyt about the episode, but just some brief takeaways:

Paperboy lambasts Ciara not for being a genuinely shytty person, but for having a fixation with her social media presence. Ultimately, as shytty as Ciara is, she turns out to be quite honest.

When they talk about the strip club she worked at, she very bluntly tells Paperboy that she probably thought he was just another broke patron, which Paperboy finds to be off putting.

At the clothing boutique, she urges him to get a new manager, because Earn is not maximizing his career perks.

At the nail salon, she questions what being real even means, and tries to convince Paperboy that he needs to move differently because he's becoming a celebrity of sort due to his music career. Stubbornly, Paperboy rejects her ideas and storms out, telling her that he can walk home,which works to illustrate how Paperboy views himself as still being real enough to do shyt like that.

He's quickly given a reality check though, as he's robbed by a group of teenagers that he naively mistook for fans. Being real almost got him killed and chased into the woods, which is where he literally begins to lose his sense of reality. His surreal trek blurs the lines between hallucinations and reality.

Paperboy's emergence from the woods is capped by a scene where he takes a selfie with an actual fan. Could this be him in essence accepting his shift from neighborhood drug dealer to rapper? It certainly helps understand the tension that is built up in the very next episode "North of the Border."
