Cool lil episode ... Show still soild but the fall off from the 1st 2 seasons is evident.

Missing Lawrence, Chad, The lil blood homie, The Bouch....

At least we got a lil mirror rap back this week and her girls are back next episode.

I still love the Cinematography, The Music and dialouge on the show... But the story is lacking so far. We'll see where it goes

This season is boring as shyt, and I’m clearly a biased Issa Rae fan. But the storylines are meandering, the comedy ain’t really there, every episode thus far I’m left feeling like there was no major conflict, resolution or plot points. This literally feels like watching a random day in someone’s life - that’s cool, but that’s not compelling tv.

So they just gonna ignore the Tiffany/Derek storyline from last season.

So they just gonna not address Dro and Molly's situation. Alrighty then.

I'm sure we haven't seen the last of Daniel or Dro. Molly and Issa dont know what they want, one is hoing and the other is stagnant in life

This season has been boring as fukk and I already know what they about to do with this nikka they trying to claim from Houston (Any nikka from Houston can tell he aint from here). Watch they make this nikka bisexual. He avoided talking about any past relationship and nothing really concrete about him. The music the only good thing about this show now.

They already had a bisexual dude. I don’t think they’ll repeat that storyline

Worst episode of the series.


Next week looks like they tryna bring some fukkery. It'll either jumpstart this season, or send it down in flames.

This episode was the best.

I LOVED that they showed Different parts of black LA unlike power who just wanted to show positive racistMiami cubans .

This season more down to earth and chill. It a slice of life show....people are expecting fukkery at every turn and jokes like last season.

The 1st season was the right balance of fukkery and good story telling/dialogue.

The 2nd season was too much and felt like they were just tryin to shock you every episode.

This season is just flat out boring after the 1st episode. We'll see what happens.

I wonder if Daniel is gone for good after Molly hit him with the "Bye Daniel" line.

The show is in a comfortable rhythm, I think for "real" fans of the show, and not the divisive and absurd group think divide of Lawerence Vs. Issa, it is in a zone. The show will change with the characters lives, there have been numerous laughs and sharp lines in all the episodes.

For me, this one, beyond showcasing the neighborhoods in LA, and Issa's own personal journey, it goes into chemistry and attraction, and the comfort, ease of meeting someone you really connect with, where nothing seems forced, and you just take your time sharing parts of yourself. Everyone has had those days, a few hours with a stranger, taking someone into your life.

I always think I'd like to take someone through my childhood neighborhoods, and see theirs too, as kind of way to viscerally see the person's journey and life. Plus, now I'll have to try and make it way out to WorldWide Tacos when i'm in LA.

Issa and Daniel, really have poor communication, but he still is her strongest relationship next to Molly.

I’ve given up on the show being ambitious and I’m just asking to be entertained at this point. It’s coming up light in that department too. I think someone hit the nail on the head when they said Issa is less interesting than her side characters. I’m interested in her job stuff but her relationship drama is falling completely flat for me right now. No energy at all and not funny either.

I will say the Insecuritea podcast is helping me keep watching. Maybe it’s because I need podcasts for my daily commute but I’m enjoying Fran and Krissle talk about the show more than actually watching it. Their enthusiasm is contagious.

This weeks episode looks like it could be fun too.

And she's a ho who just got finished fukking with a married man. She's way more foul for that shyt.
True but because she is a lawyer society would look at her as she is better because she is in a better position socioeconomically.
