her Apollo set was almost cringe worthy like the wedding speech...

I think you may be viewing 1960-ish comedy through a 2019 POV. I have Sirius and often have it tuned to their comedy channels. Once in awhile they'll broadcast something 50ish years old.. I'm talking all-time greats like Dangerfield, and it just isn't all that funny by current day standards.

Reviews for this season are not as universally positive as the first 2 seasons so I was prepared for that. But I thoroughly enjoyed the first 2 episodes we watched last night. I guess I'm invested in the other characters, other than Midge & Susie, as well. Hell, Joel is my least favorite character on the show by far and I even enjoyed his new story line about the club he wants to develop in Chinatown.

I just have to say it....fuck the current POV on comedy as it applies to history, or a story like this going back to that time. I get how comedy has untouchable subjects now (I don’t like it, but I get it).

But if someone cannot put themselves in that time period (especially with how good they do at styling....it’s Mad Men level styling) than just don’t watch.

I have not had a chance to dig into S3 yet. So I won’t be back here for a bit. But I’m looking forward to it. Love this case of characters.

I never loved Suzie’s character before, but I downright fucking hate her character now.

started watching season 3 and I am very entertained.

I like that the dude from This Is Us is in this season. He does a really great job.

Finally finished it up tonight. Didn't like the last episode. She's not dumb, and she's Jewish... She knows what that whole scene prior to the show meant. She would have known that they didn't know.

If you're referring to what I think you are, I wasn't crazy about that either and for the same reason. Early 60s she'd know better than to "go there" about him publicly, even jokingly, and certainly she'd know what she'd done wrong after the fact.

Yep.


Eh, it's been out for well over a month, if you keep reading further than this without watching, not my fault.


She saw the neighborhood bringing their daughters and food. Especially coming from from her community, where moms would try to marry their daughters off to the successful men (like doctors), she would know they don't know.

I was trying to be vague....But it's been out for a while. I thought I was behind when I watched it.

Didn't Ty and her have a heart-to-heart previously where he pretty much told her the situation..

The show has been out for about 5 weeks. If you are worried about spoilers at this point, try avoiding this thread.
I 100% disagree with this rule

if it is a movie, maybe

but not everyone just sits and binges the entire season the day is comes out.

Just curious, what is the point of coming into this thread right now if you haven't finished?

discuss the show

but that can be done without dropping any big spoilers

I found it interested how they started creeping into woman's suffrage this season and then her doing the live radio spot for that politician lady who everyone thought sucked. I guess it is that era and it makes sense with the whole jist of the show.
