“It’s something I’ve always wanted to do,” Hader says. “I’m very proud that I got the chance to finally do it and grow and learn. I feel each season was a step in the right direction of figuring out what the job is, and how to create a story with images; that’s really, really exciting. It’s the best job on the planet.”

Sally's apology to John really struck me as a raw, meaningful parent-to-child apology. She didn't dumb anything down, she didn't lie to soften anything, she claimed all of her actions... he was so young, and Sally reacted to his age not by talking down to him, but by finding a way to describe the whole truth so he could understand

Most importantly I think is how she kept saying that John is a good person. Like...she thought she was about to die. And she didn't spend that time asking John for forgiveness or to remember her in a good light. She dedicated her words to making John feel loved. She spent that precious time giving him something to make sense of it all, to heal somewhere down the line even when she's not there

#HHHHHHUHHHHHHHHHH #i know that Sally & John's interactions at the college indicate a bunch of fucked-up-edness #ie him saying 'i love you' & her not hearing it. her asking him for reassurance #but i see the apology scene & her concern for him after the shooting #as evidence that she's going to give him SOMETHING good as his mother. #call me what u want but i have faith in them. #She's not perfect and they've got SOOOO much shit to live with. the both of them. #but amongst all of her motivations there is a genuine desire to see her son safe & happy #and i'm crossing my heart & hoping to die that -- now that Barry's not there -- that love for John comes through. and that he feels it. #the fact that they had an easy conversation outsite the theater; there was no indication Sally is using substances; John is sober; #and that John has friends.... I'm choosing to take these as indicators that -- despite the genuine problems that Are there -- #John & Sally are reasonably healthy and so is their relationship. #oh god. this show. takes a fucking Lot out of me #barry hbo #sally reed #john berkman #barry finale #barry meta #pyra speaks

something something all the puppets on the shelves on either side of gene sitting in the same position as he is. something something gene being accused of manipulating barry into being the villain when it was actually the other way around. something something same couch where barry forced him to say that he loved him.

Barry and Succession: The Nature of Change

Fyi I’m sure many people have pointed this out before. Also this post is sort of piggybacking off of @childhoodtheme’s post of Jeremy Strong’s Vanity Fair interview.

Watching Succession right after Barry is just heartwrenching. They both deal with such intense themes about change. Each show deals with it differently. With Succession, it goes unsaid. You’re meant to watch the show and see for yourself. With Barry, it’s a very present question throughout the show. There are even moments where the characters put that question directly into words. But they end very similarly.

Starting with Succession- one of the general themes is that life is cyclical. Roman doesn’t recover. He doesn’t go to therapy, he doesn’t become a better person. He doesn’t change, he just accepts who he’s always been. In one of his culminating scenes, he simply says ‘We’re bullshit…we’re nothing.’ He, unlike his siblings, has come to terms with the reality of their situation instead of trying to change it. Shiv and Kendall’s arcs are cyclical in a different way. They do not change, and fail to recognize their situation, so they face the consequences instead. Instead of giving up, and getting out in the hopes of a freer life, Shiv does what she’s always done. She schemes, she manipulates, she ruins peoples lives and her own while she’s at it. She’s still striving for what she’s always wanted, but she’s dead inside. And Kendall? Just like Shiv, he ends up where he’s found himself so many times before. He’s alone. He’s failed AGAIN. After scheming and backstabbing and failing to learn and grow once more. His story ends the way we’ve all known it’s had to end, but the way he could never accept. After this long journey, they’re all right where they’ve started. Alone, bitter, and falling back into the same habits they’ve never been able to let go. And it’s devastating.

As stated before, Barry ends in a similar way. Like Roman, Fuches and Sally’s stories end in being honest with themselves and the people around them. Have they really changed? Not entirely. Are they happy? Not entirely. But they’re free- or as free as they can be. They’ll always be tortured by their situation, and by their character, but they’re out. They’re alive. In the same fashion, Barry and Noho Hank’s stories end in a way that reflects Shiv and Kendall’s. They’ve doomed themselves, by not only failing to change, but failing to accept the reality of their lives and what they’ve done.

So I’m losing my mind a little bit. These themes are incredibly interesting to me, and I’d like to explore these ideas more, but I’m going to stop myself before I fall into a pit of depression :) To conclude, these shows are both absolutely fantastic pieces of art. The writing and acting is phenomenal from both shows, and they’re both among the best shows I’ve ever seen, certainly the best shows on television right now. Hats off to both casts and crews. It’s been a wild couple of months.

the use of the macbeth monologue that was sally’s originally being presented as movie-barry’s introduction and hero monologue was insane and not ok and made me jump off a cliff

So you guys been watching Barry?

#barry #hbo #barry finale #barry season 4 #bill hader #snl #mmm whatcha say #meme #anyway so i thought it would be funny to throw this together #its the only thing i could think of while watching this scene #so i had to make it a realty #if you see this video on the barry subreddit i didnt steal it #thats just my reddit account #Youtube

[pyramidofmice]

After Sally kills the attacker in Barry's apartment, Barry tells her "You're gonna go home. You were never here," and Sally repeats "Home." I think that when Sally gets on the plane to Joplin, she's burying EVERYTHING she ever did in California. Like she never left Missouri. "You were never here."
