I came here specifically for the commentary on the absolute monster that cory's mother was for providing lobster for dinner, and then making him feel bad for preparing it for them? like that is some next level toxicity. also, I am hoping to somehow manifest the stockard channing guest spot.
the way they wrote cory's toxic mom was so elegant and interesting (emotional abuse is deeply subtle) - clanging up against the clownish delivery of the Roe reaction is ... so typical of this show.
yes! it's like half the show is written as a soap opera and the other half is written as an oscar contender. they should teach college courses on the bazaar rhythm of this show.
the tonal whiplash makes me wonder how this show is getting made. is apple giving the worst network notes in the history of scripted programming? very mysterious and scintillating
whatever they are doing, i firmly believe Reese is being traumatized and will need some sort of shock therapy at the end of the run. girl is miserable. i hope someone writes a memoir of "The Making Of".
Hard to express how much I love to see a this gorgeous little comment thread here, and if I don't get to write the book about the this show or AT LEAST an oral history in 20 years, my life will have been for naught!
"I was going to make a joke about his father being Jodi Foster’s dad in Contact, but then I remembered that is David Morse, who is already in this show as Bradley’s dad." 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 screaminggggggg because it's true. there is a casting metatextual ouroboros with this show that makes me scream every time.

I will gladly preorder now and wait patiently for it to be released in 2 decades.
