Great great episode this week. Top 3 of all time I reckon.

episode 4 is probably the best they’ve done, the way they manage to shift between the tense/serious stuff and the comedy is incredible

This is an interesting point. Game of Thrones is an HBO show which probably has more cultural capital than any Netflix show, but it started a couple of years before Netflix streaming became ubiquitous. I wonder if GOT started on HBO, this year, if it would - could - be as popular as it is.

Still, that 2nd-episode renewal suggests Barry is doing just fine ratings-wise so that’s a relief at least.

Been scheduled just after GOT in the US: seen its viewing figures jump from 0.42m to 1.94m in two weeks. Handy!

I don’t know if I’m the only one who thought it was the grittiest episode of Bottom ever made

The individual episodes of this are still good but I don’t think that it has overall matched the quality of season 1. The overall narrative arc isn’t as good, especially the show they’re putting on at the theatre, and the jokes aren’t quite as strong.

i disagree, i think this whole season has been a step up in quality, there hasn’t been as much of the theatre stuff but i think that’s been the trade off for having more of hank, who’s the best thing about it

I’m with lastdino. Season 2 has been great but feels a bit looser than the first. Also I miss Janice.

All of Sally’s scenes in latest ep are pure gold.

last episode was absolutely tremendous as expected, be interesting to see what they do with the 3rd series as the whole theatre aspect seems to have run it’s course

I’m hoping Barry and Sally get parts on a film/show. Loved the skewering of Hollywood in the Gersh scenes and reckon they could take that further.

Agreed, I wasn’t 100% into the acting stuff and Sally in S1 but they really made it work in S2 and much more invested in it.

What a great season of tv, absolutely loved the finale.

This still makes me giggle a lot
