don't really have anyone to root for.... Previous Message didn't care for it. S1 had enough moments to keep me watching. I was hoping it would find its groove starting in S2 similar to how The Office and Parks & Rec did after a season or two. this season didn't really go anywhere. The characters didn't become any more likeable, in fact some became less likeable. The storylines weren't really funny. The main character (Ned) keeps making dumb, bumbling mistakes that that aren't funny nor do they make you want to root for him. It seemed like they made a point to write things for Esmerelda that were away from the rest of the cast (maybe because they have no clue how to fix her character). The storyline with Esmerelda showing up at her kid's school and making up a story that she's an adult woman who thinks she's a teenage boy was just idiotic. I can suspend a bit of disbelief, but I couldn't even accept that any principal would allow that to happen (even in a world that included all the shit Michael Scott got into on The Office). And the season ending was annoying (I won't totally spoil it). Just have them talk.

The season 2 plot was so convoluted, I kind of liked the pivot in season 3. Fair point that they’ve abandoned the actual lioness storyline but I thought the storytelling around that was pretty lazy in season 1 anyway. Didn’t feel like they wanted to take the time to demonstrate how much work actually goes into those infiltrations, all it took was bumping into the lady once at a jewelry store and they were instant BFF’s.

Posted by Nobster on September 16, 2026, 20:32:28, in reply to "Were you drunk when you posted this? Or drunk when you watched the episode?"

Being dismissed. After watching, I looked at a couple of entertainment writer articles describing the episode. They also agreed that that’s involvement with stealing from the farm was a reaction to being threatened and being released from his job. Prior to this experience, Eddie had shown a decent amount of kindness, which you could interpret as weakness if Ned actually was secretly stealing from him prior to asking for more money. Prior to this episode, Eddie also showed an extreme amount of practical efforts to reduce risk. He also showed bravo loyalty to those in his life. Despite the challenges they might face. Jimmy is a prime example of that. Now, not only did Ned retaliate in the stupidest of ways since he had no experience in dealing with ruthless mobs and had no control over them, the rest of the crew are also motivated more by fear than loyalty. That may affect Susie‘s motivation, and perhaps his agreement to go along with Susie‘s suggestion was more at cultivating a stronger relationship with the glass family. And while we don’t know how much money each worker was making, we can probably guess it was someplace in the neighborhood of 30 to 50,000 pounds per year each. I don’t recall if they said that the glass families cut of 45 million paid for labor, but I do recall statements that for 10% of the proceeds all he needed to do is look the other way. That indicates that Susie may have taken on the expense labor, which would mean that each of the farmworkers was 1/10 of a percent of their cost. Seems pretty stupid to risk your organization for 20% of a 10th of a percent of your total income. Susie or Bobby glass might make that choice, but Eddie from season one until that point would not in that situation. Of course, all of the other morally reprehensible act that he took on in that point could’ve led him to doing something like that, but this was literally the first time that he actually punched down in my opinion. However, as noted when drinking some details, may not sink in and be retained so I’m sure you have some response the point out how utterly ridiculous my position is. Also, I’m using the microphone to post this, because I simply cannot be bothered with typing on a tiny little phone anymore. So if there are typos or errors or shitty ass punctuation, I don’t care. Previous Message Or yes? Just so we're clear... an employee at an illegal marijuana farm led a worker slow down and demanded from his English mob bosses a 20% raise, 1 hour paid break per shift, 4 weeks paid vacation, 6 weeks of paid sick leave and a percentage of the profits from the illegal operation. The English mob bosses countered by giving everyone a 3% raise, 1 hour paid break per shift, 2 weeks paid vacation and 3 weeks paid sick leave and zero percentage of the profits from the illegal operation. Anyone who didn't accept it was fired. He refused so they fired him and held a gun to his head and reminded him of exactly who he worked for and to keep his mouth shut about their illegal operation. A few minutes later it was revealed that the poor fired organizer was actually stealing $5K a week in product from the illegal operation for the Albanian mob. After he was fired he broke into the illegal operation with the Albanian mob and stole 200kg of product and gave the Albanian mob all of the details on the English mob's illegal operation. The Albanian mob thanked him by putting a bullet in his head and then offered to solve all of the English mob's proletariat problems by providing them with workers who wouldn't dare complain.
