Issa Rae’s Emmy Winning Series: Insecure Official Thread

[Stir Fry]

Gonna miss the show, but not Derrick's gratuitous use of the n-word

Cool finale. Probably the shows worst season but they stuck the landing imo.

this shyt was a wack ending...i'm sorry but in retrospect, these are the storylines that should have been building throughout the season instead of so much of the filler. the time jumps felt cheap, it robbed these storylines of impact (molly's mom dying...yea, some of yall are gonna bring up the episode dedicated to her in the hospital, but it's because of that that it shouldn't have been a 2 min plot point in a bloated finale) and overall just made it feel like a rush job to create beautiful neat endings. i'm fine with neat endings, but they should've spent more time building to them as opposed to throwing like half of them into a finale.

overall a B+ series to me - i like this show but never had quite the attachment to it as most others - but the final season, now that's it's complete, definitely left more to be desired.

I liked the ending. Episodes shoulda be an hour the entire series.

season was extra light but the last eps was solid.

Did Issa & Lawrence get married? She definitely had a ring on in the bathroom

I knew it!

Spoiler: I knew it!

How can I forget to mention the fake Daniel they brought in


"She thought she knew me from somewhere" lol


I wish they would have had a random Daniel cameo for old times sake at some point this season. I won't lie in the season preview I thought crenshawn was Daniel

Good wine down between Issa and Prentice as well. Apparently she had written a finale that was 75% set in Morocco on a girl's trip between her and Molly that included a fake Rihanna impersonator named Ribabba

So they really made a Looking for Latoya podcast called "We Stay Looking"

Yeah, I'm not mad at that finale

Pretty much agree with most of the comments here and I enjoyed Issa driving through her old spots. The show has always been shot well and Issa looked the best she has looked in a number of scenes

I liked the bathroom conversation with Molly, considering where they were at the end of last season

Overall Insecure really was a unique show. Always liked how they showed love to older black shows with casting, the direction, and perfectly timed music cues.

Issa the character certainly came a long way, but the awkward moments are some of the show's best like her calling Lawrence and being surprised he picked up, along with the Louis Armstrong impression

 

[The War Report]

Issa came a long way.

So did Lawrence.

It’s all about the journey at the end of the day.

The lasting legacy of this show is the cinematography and soundtrack. This show made LA really shine.

I understand these thoughts, but, in a world where you don’t know how long you will last, 30 min episodes, short attention spans, how much time can they dedicate to a character or plot point? they knew the show was ending so they wrapped it up best as they could, for me this was cool, i could have delt without mollys mom dying, that served no purpose

 

[WeInHere]

I don't even know but I'm glad it's over lol

 

[ImLionyall]

Did they cgi the light skinned nikka into the wedding?
