13459253, let's not pretend your average High Maintenance episode isn't great

That said, it truly is surprising how often this season is staying away from the main cast AND telling (universal) white stories through a Black lens


Especially now that the cast are all big timers, it's hard not to want as much of them doing the thing they do on this show as much as we can get it. Brian Tyree Henry especially. His Paperboi is such a fun TV character.


But I do really enjoy how slow the joke burns on episodes like this too. It just feels like we're losing time with those people.
