Finished the season and the end went more or less like I expected, they learned the lesson from Dexter and ditched the kid that would only cause problems for the story and it just wouldn't be remotely plausible for a serial killer to be a good father. And of course they killed love, because she was just too stupid. Don't see how the show can continue from here, but it will, so...

Watched the first 4 episodes of the new season last night after telling myself I was only gonna watch the first 2. First episode had its cringy intro, title card popped up and I immediately said aloud “I can not believe I’m watching another season of this shit”. Fuck this show, I hate it but I can’t stop watching and sometimes you get the feeling that the writers and directors are in on the joke about this show. You can not watch the two of them dig up a corpse that they disposed of earlier while their baby sits there in the foreground none the wiser and then tell me with a straight face that this is a serious show. It’s definitely 100% more of a dark comedy in the vein of American Psycho but it doesn’t have IT like American Psycho did. Love is the best character you can not convince me otherwise. I came to this show for God knows what reason and stayed for Love. I was absolutely howling when after they met Sherry for the first time and she was like “she’s lucky I didn’t stab her in the eye”. That’s another thing with the show, all the characters are just absolutely horrible and represent the worst aspects of our coastal elites, whether among the millennials and zoomers at the head of the youth culture or the rich, fake liberal elites. They’re all so bad and obnoxious that it just makes you want to see Love go postal and slaughter everyone around her like it’s the lawnmower scene from Dead Alive. Almost every character that pops up on screen I find myself saying “I hope Love kills them”. I’m just surprised she hasn’t taken Natalie’s words from episode 1 very literally yet and forced Sherry to accept her by putting her and her friends in a cage. I would’ve prepared for that possibility if I was Joe. I do like how they kinda subverted what they did the previous seasons and immediately killed off the new chick instead of having Joe stalk her half the season. That shit was getting repetitive and I found myself saying “stop” and “please go home” so many times. Why did you keep following her around in your car after she busted you beating your meat? She recognizes your car now and will know you’re following her again. Get a fucking rental car if you’re so dedicated. And why would you ever masturbate in a grocery store parking lot? I know it came back to be a convenient excuse when questioned by the detectives but Jesus Christ man. Oh and while I did say that killing Natalie straight away was a nice touch, the way it went down was still very predictable. As soon as Love asked “can we see the basement?” I knew she was dead meat and then the shot of the basement with that lighting once they got there…..I could see the fucking cage before she and Joe even conceived of building it so that was the confirmation of yea she’s a goner.

Refuse to believe Love is actually dead. This show dies with her

Oh honeys, finally clearing the backlog and I have finished Season 3. Without giving anything away, it was super cringe Sherry & Cary, in the latter episodes that really made it for me. Sometimes having really great supporting characters helps as otherwise this would have felt very much more of the same as the other two seasons.
Does anyone else find they sometimes hear Patrick Bateman in Joe? I'm sure American Psycho was a huge inspiration for this.

That's definitely a scripted bit though - they are doing a parody of "Who's on first" .............Ingraham & Arrroyo joke around a lot like that - he's her Ed McMahon (yeah I watch Laura Ingraham once in a while, that doesn't make me Satan - leftist wackadoodles! )..............there's no way she doesn't know what "You" is ........ PennBadgley:
'It's gotta be a bit," the actor tweeted. "Dude is committed, he actually made me lol, but watch how he waits for her to cut him off."
Even Netflix joined in, replying to Badgley's tweet, "100% a bit."

My main takeaway from the new season is that Knives Out, aside from the MCU, is the worst thing to happen to pop culture in the past 5 years

So I finally jumped into this and it’s def addicting trashy fun. So ridiculous and stupid at time but still keeps me hooked. I’m only 3 eps into season 3 but binging thru pretty quickly. Bad glee somehow makes it work throughout and Pedretti is just so great.
