This was a better episode but I still think all the characters are continuing to devolve more and more into caricatures of themselves.

Kendall is just way too cringeworthy in every single interaction he is in - like we ALL know he is going to bomb whatever interaction he takes part in

I thought Kendall was excellent in season 2, but it’s like the writers totally forgot about his character arc and decided to turn him into a degenerate Michael Scott




Watched it again last night and this is pretty spot on. I think what had me so excited about the finale last year was thinking Kendall was finally going to get it together and be a legit adversary for Logan, but they took him back to the Fredo role with Roman making his usual wisecracks and Shiv furrowing her brow at everything everybody says. Even Greg has been pretty boring this year and he was one of my favorite characters on TV the first 2 seasons

I must admit like others this season has really been weak thus far. It could still redeem itself, but the caricature comment is spot on. I have found Roman's lines to be even more childish and over the top than previous seasons.

The writing overall is still good and has some funny laughs and lines. I think Tom is well written so far this season. Can't believe Shiv let him be the sacrifice. What a bitch.

I was on team Kendall until they made him too manic and over the top.

Something really needs to happen to shake this show up because it is a big drop off after the first two seasons.
