Solice Kirsk posted:I think the other poster nailed it and we're gonna get a pregnant what's her name in the last episode to torpedo the gangs progress. With it ultimately resulting in her having already having been pregnant by her fiancee (which had her hormones out of whack and why she ended up loving *Richard* of all people), which becomes a problem anyway because Richard will almost certainly find a way to reveal it to him in a 'hilarious' and predictably 'wacky' way, setting them back to square one with no loving hope of funding except maybe Russ.

I'm waiting for Season 5 when the NSA inevitably makes a visit to "politely request" the guys put in a custom back door for them in said new internet and Dinesh and Gilfoyle act like prairie dogs the whole time.

All I know is that while it seems like when he's not playing Richard that Middleditch is a pretty okay and chill guy, his playing Richard makes me viscerally dislike him whenever I see him in any other forms of media. And not in a "wow, he's really doing a good job as an actor making me dislike him" way. I also think we missed out on Gilfoyle dropping the boom, too. Jared *trying* to take a sociopathic Aspie to task for his idiocy was one thing, but I've a feeling Gilfoyle got cut off just as he was about to disembowel Richard.

Honestly the best acting by Middleditch in this past episode is when for the first time in a while Richard's eyes go wide when he realized "hey c'mon, calm down" wasn't going to cut it and he might *actually* reap actual emotional and physical consequences for his actions... ...but then the invisible hand of Judgian fate swoops down and scoops him into his manloving embrace and Richard learns absolutely gently caress all except he's obviously "special" in some way. I think what makes it all the more intolerable is that it's like seeing a savant version of Chris-Chan get away with things by blaming the 'tism. I like Mike Judge, but four seasons in now, and every loving season ends up feeling like a retread of the check under Lumbergh's door - "oh wow we're so hosed oh wait now we're slightly less hosed than everyone else, ~yay~."

LinYutang posted:It's kind of sad how stale this show has become. Parks and Rec had a super boring setting but had really steady character progression and setting changes. There's no point in getting invested in any scenario in SV because by the end of the episode it'll be "welp, Richard is at it again. What a clown." Yeah, again, I can't help but see Judge making new riffs on Office Space's ending. "Oh wow we're so hosed...oh wait someone else hosed up more so now we're okay again."

And then Jian Yang comes in eating yogurt while miraculously smoking at the same time, and says "I told you my uncle was uh *very* corrupt," smiles evilly, and walks out of the room. Gilfoyle breaks the silence with a dry "we need to move the gently caress out of here...now."

Phi230 posted:Jian Yiang is gonna have his very corrupt uncle whack Erlich. Why kill him when they can just quasi-legally *trap* him there? I'm pretty sure Erlich's done something at some point to piss off the State Department, and we *know* he's pissed off the IRS. Also, calling it now - Richard's going to try to kill himself and end up failing at *that*, too. "Why did you try to kill yourself with a Prius? Once it realized it wasn't going anywhere the engine shut off and all you did was fall asleep and run out the battery. Dick."

My guess is that they'll do a forensic examination of the Hoolicon app and find the malware, but *also* find that Keenan, in a bid to impress Hooli, illegally used ~The Algorithm~ without permission to smooth things out, implicating both companies in criminal malfeasance, but *Action Jack* simply offers to pay Pied Piper a massive amount of money to *never have to hear about them ever again*, contingent on keeping all details of the deal secret. The team is elated that they'll never have to see or work with Richard ever again, until he tanks the deal by leaking the story to CodeRag (since that's the only thing he knows how to do), leaving them open to ruinous litigation, because the deal will permanently jeopardize people recognizing his ~genius~. Season 5 starts and abruptly ends with Jared smothering Richard with a pillow, screaming "Poop Fare!?!??!?" at the top of his lungs until he stops moving.

It's a good thing the show goes back on break after tonight, otherwise I'd be tempted to watch Preacher before it. To think, a show that's demonstrated a cyclical plot compared to one where they literally blew up the plot that wasn't working. I'm just thinking back to my thoughts on the first two episodes, thinking we were seeing a "new show," and instead we ended up getting the same old poo poo.  EDIT: Wow, another Hail Mary save and complete reset of the plot back to the beginning of *last* season, with *no* cliffhanger. How original. gently caress this show.

I also love how Jared reveals he's been living in the garage for no reason other than "solidarity" and the general reaction wasn't  but rather "whatever" by all present.

I just have to give a shoutout to Stephen Tobolowsky. Dude needs more roles where he's allowed to drop the "dopey" and be straight up sinister like he did once he realized he'd been played. I still remember his bit part in Sneakers where he goes from being Mr. Awkward Computer Dater to "let's go for a ride...*Doris*."
