No Dignity posted:What happens to Bruce? I thought he just peaced out and then was only ever mentioed off-screen again? He gets his idea of the world/his family generally being good destroyed and ultimately succumbs to his sense of vengeance to humiliate his children. He bests the gang but only does so by destroying the illusion of his moral superiority

Rewatching Mac's Big Break, an episode I barely remember at all, and Luthor Vandross gets his first (?) mention when Frank accidentally tapes over a mix tape.

I will someday devise a full psychological dossier for the show... But my working theory is that the gang are inherently humans in conflict between their (ever-weakening) rationality and unrestrained emotion. More and more as the series goes on they abandon rationality and give into the emotional response. When met with other characters in the same sort of conflict, the catharsis of seeing the gang abandon reason and give into pure sensuality is enough to break down the rational side of the people they are in contact with. Characters like Z, Artemis, and Ben to an extent, are not corrupted by the gang because they are already resolved and at peace with who they are as people. They like themselves, there's nothing they have buried to dig out. This is also why we like the gang even if we don't sympathize with their situation or their beliefs - we are envious of their ability to be entirely consumed by a passion at any given moment because those are impulses we have been taught to smother in ourselves from birth.

It's really only the people that oppose the gang that end up coming out on the losing end. Characters like Z, Artemis, etc just work with the gang in their schemes. The only maybe exception is Cricket, but if he would have just blessed the stain he would have been good!

I wonder if Cricket stays awake at night, lying on his bed of stray dogs, thinking about that pivotal moment in his life

the Lawyer is interesting because he gets one over on the Gang like five times before he got his comeuppance. He thought himself invincible and was brought low by his hubris

You can survive the gang but not the gang AND the mcpoyles What you've done there is put yourself between a bullet and a target

Brawnfire posted:You can survive the gang but not the gang AND the mcpoyles this is an important consideration. the Lawyer was fighting a war on two fronts, and though he was able to match the Gang's sociopathy and exceed their organization and intelligence, he had no answer for the McPoyles' detachment from reality. He was trying to show a rabid dog a card trick.

He went into that trial on the verge of a breakdown; he ranted about how the Gang ruined his first marriage when that can't possibly be true. It's been quite a while since the trial episode, I wonder if/when we'll see more of him.

I'm fairly sure we'll see the lawyer again because this show is absolutely insane about bringing back old characters. Hell, this season gave us the return of Pepper Jack (and his Fraggle Rock thermos) after fourteen years.

Nah, Bruce was last seen being trapped in a burning apartment on Thanksgiving. At least he got some closure in finding out who destroyed his beloved car. You might be thinking of some other Jabroni

Sofia is a good actress who is stunningly gorgeous, but other than that, it's just dire. Basically, it's just "This is how AA works." The Series.

I hope one episode of the podcast starts with 5 minutes of dead air, since none of the three arrive on time but Glen gave Megan strict instruction to start filming at 9 am sharp.
