Friedland (who is gay and has a small penis) isn’t that surprising but John Early is like an actual actor who’s actually been in stuff.

    well the show is very explicitly about how rich people are awful and selfish and fuck up other people’s lives without facing any consequences, so it’s not too surprising that leftists are involved

      I actually kinda disagree. One thing I found interesting about the show is almost EVERY character is an unhinged weirdo, regardless of class level. Seriously I can count the number of characters who were normal decent humans on one hand, like it was Dory’s journalist ex (and even he seemed like a bit of a narcissist at time) and like… idk maybe Keith? If anything the message of the show is everyone is a maladjusted weirdo.

        that’s fair, the show is hyper-fixated on human flaws to the point of being somewhat misanthropic, but “everyone is a maladjusted weirdo” is honestly a pretty accurate description real-life Americans, regardless of class. living in a capitalist society makes devils of us all

        but the show is very focused on privileged assholes who mostly interact with other privileged assholes. because the show is from the perspective of yuppie trust-fund kids, we don’t see a lot of working-class people at all. Cole Escola’s character being an exception of course, and that was definitely the weakest season
