been rewatching barry s1 and 2 and it is. Insane. How. The looney tunes of it all. Wiley coyote. It's all so stupid None of it means anything. and they dont know they dont realize. and then. And then

#HANK AND CRISTOBAL ARE LITERALLY STUPID NOTHINGS. THE MOST INSANE SETUP OF ALL TIME #they're literally paper dolls theyre so ros and guil theyre the roadrunner im in shambles. plot devices. joke machines. Until #s2 perhaps one of the greatest seasons of television ever made. in the world #i can see the farce i can see the mirage flickering like it's such a tonal tightrope. and s3 is the collapse! #it's like a finely tuned oiled up motorcycle. vs s3 which is a freight train #in the best way possible ofc #barry #like i forgot how much in s1 sally just like... is hardly a character... doesnt really even get b plots on her own #shes just there for barry! hanks not even necessary for THAT he LITERALLY was gonna get killed off ep1 #which makes sense because s1 is About barry teaching himself how to be a person (badly) #literally when the characters become sentient and demand interiority in the show about acting and performance . man
