DefinitelyYou see it clear and unbiased
It needs to be stated one more time in here, you’re not supposed to like or root for any of characters. It’s why I’m puzzled at the whole team Kendall, team Tom, etc shyt in here.
Everything is right there. Going back since the first season, the first episode. All of them have severe trauma and use cynicism & sarcasm on each other to mask it. For gods sake, they treat every single conversation as a way to one up the other.
Regular, normal humans don’t act like that.
Forget unserious, they’re fukking insane people.
They all need therapy, but got fake treatment thru pretending to run away (Shiv), drugs (Kendall) and old women (Roman). They are all damaged and deserve no revelry.
It’s why Connor was perfect. Man knows exactly what he is and is fine with it. He knows he married a prostitute, and is fine with it. He fine being a billionaire and spending money on comedy presidential campaigns. That’s what a failson is supposed to do.

So many thoughts keep popping to mind.
Like it's kinda weird how Roman had more smoke for Luka (a stranger) than his own siblings at any point. That's the most assertive we ever got to see him. I mean even Greg got his lick in on Tom

watching this now…
*edit*
the brief interview doesn’t focus too much on his activism…it more so deals with his background/start in h’wood…the last minute focuses on his activism

He is one of those white hippies from the 60s that actually meant it (Ed Begley, Jr. Is another one).
Fantastic breakdown. I’ll add this one, and it makes me relate to Shiv much more, because I come from a family with a lot of men as well.
And that was definitely the point of the show…
Having to work to become a success is WAY different than being born in it.
Logan respected Matson because he could see himself in him.
None of the kids could get the company because none of them really understood how to create and maintain something of that magnitude. Everyone that surrounded them had to fight to get in the room they were born in.
That’s why some super successful people make their kids work for what they want- to make sure their kids develop the same fire and work ethic they had to develop to be successful.

Skylar got too much hate. As far as wives of criminals go, Carmela Soprano was way worse. Skylar thought she was marrying a chemist/HS teacher, Carmela knew all along she was marrying a gangster yet pretended she was on this moral high ground due to religion.
On top of that, she would do shyt like show off the Corvette that she didn’t buy, just to rub it in the face of a fellow mob wife who was broke. She would brag to 16 year old girls about her expensive lladros.

And he gonna have a talk with the SEC over insider trading.
Skylar had a good argument. Shiv is white feminism personified and in this case her entire introduction to the show was fukking over her brother basically and she ended it doing that same thing. Without breaking down her character, nobody wanted to see her get anything resembling a win. Kendall just sucked the least out of the 3.

I totally forgot about that. kendall was gonna protect his ass from that. he really hitched his wagon to the wrong horse.
I don't think Logan respected anyone to be honest. But I do agree that he would never appoint his kids as successor because none of them were a mirror of him. All these people sucked and you weren't really supposed to like any of them - I actually wanted them all to lose or for the company to collapse.
