Sad it’s the final season. I’d hoped that there’d one final season in the ‘90s where Giuliani has taken over and they finally clear out Time Square for real. But I bothers by then the porn industry is completely in LA.

All the AIDS stuff

Lori in LA

Wolf packs ("Manhattan makes it. Brooklyn takes it") (Herc!)

Frankie fucking up already with Rudy

Loving all the 80s stuff. The credits alone are fire.

I'm thoroughly impressed with these first two

He's not earning like he used to. Longo is doing his own deals. Shoot, if Rudy is counting on Frankie to bail him out, then he's really fucked.

Plus, last episode was all about Gotti getting ready to take over, and how Rudy doesn't like or respect him.

He's taking a dirt nap soon. And not from cancer this time.

the gotti coup is still about a year away but Rudy doesn't seem fond of Castellano either so he's kind of on his own

Gotti crew kills Rudy.

What will happen to Vince, will he live to see the final montage?

Neil’s bf has aids. Neil just assumes he has it but he looks healthy compared
To a lot of other characters in the show who have aids.
I like Neil, seems like a good guy, he should slow it down!

Boy - they did a great job with the makeup
of subtlety showing that Rudy’s right hand man is on the coke wave hard using.

I worry about him more than Frankie. Vincent might just end up back with his hoodrat ex living the humdrum life. This open relationship is only gonna work for so long, and judging from the preview, it looks like Abby is about to fall hard for someone next week.

Paul? think it's Paul but I could be wrong. We should learn his name before he dies. But yeah, i wonder if he's gonna make it though or not. People just dropped like flies back then (damn near literally). That dude from the mayor's office will probably go first though.

uh.. guess i was wrong about Fankie. I thought it was gonna be Rudy seeing how he kept shitting on him, but maybe it still factors in.

Candy got pummeled by that feminist chick.

Honestly I was more worried about Lori hurting herself than Frankie getting got

Speaking of that, poor Black Frankie is fucked too.

So the thing with D'angelo Barksdale and Daniel-san, were they trying to make it look like attempted arson by the building owner?

loved the cold open

this season is great

Yeah, I started off thinking it was going to be Rudy, but there was just too much Frankie this episode for it to be anyone else. Plus, classic Simon: telegraph a character getting into trouble over one thing, then get popped by something else entirely.

>Candy got pummeled by that feminist chick.

Yeah, feminist chick was kinda full of shit too. Abby's gotta stop overreaching as well.

>Honestly I was more worried about Lori hurting herself than
>Frankie getting got

Me too. It's not looking good for her now. Which probably means that she'll turn out okay.

>Speaking of that, poor Black Frankie is fucked too.

Figured he was fucked somehow as soon as the the doorman started sweating him when he dropped off the girls.

>So the thing with D'angelo Barksdale and Daniel-san, were they
>trying to make it look like attempted arson by the building
>owner?

Huh, didn't think of that.

>loved the cold open

Me too. Especially in light of everything with the "whores" the rest of the episode.

ha. true. I think Rudy still may go. the after show thing said the guy was the son of Gambino guy (i guess i missed that reveal in the show). Rudy may help get Vincent revenge and go that way, but it could be a number of things.

>>Candy got pummeled by that feminist chick.
>
>Yeah, feminist chick was kinda full of shit too.

for sure but she won the debate. Candy is used to being the smart one in her world. She wasn't ready for someone like that

>Me too. It's not looking good for her now. Which probably
>means that she'll turn out okay.

I hope so. I might be rooting for her more than anyone. Which makes her the Bodie of the show for me, which means she's fucked

>>Speaking of that, poor Black Frankie is fucked too.
>

Amateur shit. A more seasoned operation would know you gotta pay off those hotel people. Tony Soprano Sr would know that. Jr, not so much.

it's either that or they were just trying to get it temporarily condemned

Sort of saw it coming as soon as she didn't tell Eileen her real name. When she showed up back on the stroll looking for coke, I figured she was going to score some bad dope or OD. Then when decided to hook and tell the john her real name, I saw how it was all going to go down. At first I thought she was going to jump out the window. But alas. Fucking awful.

Pretty fucking bleak episode. Mike's not going to make it through winter. Vince ends up with neither girl (though I could see that coming too). Bobby Jr. is going to get his father busted for insider trading. Gentrification rules the day.

On the other hand, it does look like Vince is in the clear (unless Longo was completely bullshiting). Black Frankie's story about Riker's was gully as fuck. And ol' girl getting a costuming job on Crocodile Dundee was pretty funny.

Great episode of TV, but dark as a motherfucka.

good catch on the real name thing. i assumed Sara was just another made up name, but this makes more sense. Mike saying he won't see winter was rough.

Basically it was always Lori. That's the name she gave CeCe in the first ep. I could see both, but he made some good points on it.

I mean, yeah she told C.C. her name was Lori. But she also told him that this wasn't her first rodeo, and she'd been hooking in Minneapolis. So I'm leaning towards her making up Lori and it's Sara. But I guess, it doesn't really matter.

my cousin Nathan who lives in such and such terrace on Baltimore. West side to be exact. Like if he WAS talking to Frank Sabotka and not Bobby lol

Such powerful screenwriting, the scenes without dialogue always packed such a wallop.

Also, 8 episode arcs required them to maximize each episode and prevented the possibility of going too long and beating something into the ground.

I think the only part I'd have added would be a reference to tinder and all the amateur porn accessible through the internet. Vince ordering it through a hotel tv wasn't contemporary enough for 2019.

Great series leave with you wanting more story, rather than the feeling that it wore out its welcome. This most definitely falls in the former.

Interesting that Frank wasn't in the montage, he must still be alive.
