#that’s v much just my opinion and my own sensibilities which r pretty specific ! still a good ep just not like a Me episode the way living+

ok prior to the finale my top three s4 episodes are easily connor’s wedding, america decides, and living+ (in that order probably). rounding out the top 5 would probably be kill list and rehearsal (altho i haven’t rewatched rehearsal so maybe not i just remember feeling fond of it lol)

#posting this for posterity’s sake #wonder if the finale will change that either bc it’s great or bc its so bad it ruins prev episodes lol #might be a surprise the funeral ep isn’t up here as i am a known roman lover and he finally had his breakdown #but idk! idk. didn’t quite do it for me. felt a lil too on the nose and sympathetic and cliche especially the ending w the self destructive #jump into the protest etc #like both that ep and tailgate party got a little too close to Saying The Thing and being a bit soapy #at times ofc #but yeah i feel like everything i liked most ab church and state was just reiteration of characterizations from prev episodes #rome breakdown was great i just didn’t love the way the running into the protestors thing ended up being done kinda #the episode just felt a little too like Hey Guys This Fascist Has Feelings :( which like TRUE i’m a HUGE proponent of pushing that but i jus #think it was a little too unsubtle for my tastes. like what did roman getting beat up willingly as a grieving method do that roman listening #to logan edited to insult him over and over and over in living+ didnt #and the latter was way more unique and interesting and layered whereas the former felt so cliche and on the nose #wish it was done to make it a little grayer make rome a little more of an asshole even #ok i’ll stop rambling byeee #that’s v much just my opinion and my own sensibilities which r pretty specific ! still a good ep just not like a Me episode the way living+ #or america decides were. and i mean connor’s wedding was an Everyone ep let’s be so real #succession
