I'm glad we recommended this show I knew you would get invested eventually. I think the writing/dialogue is just masterful. I think some people view this show as more plot driven when its more a character study/interaction show of these people in a specific place like mad men.

Okay, I've had enough of Greg's "Who, me?" shtick. It's not sweet or endearing anymore... I just find it annoying at this point. He's off the farm team!
"Well, don't threaten me, Gerri; I don't have time to jerkoff."
Roman is being moved up to my farm team. So I've got Gerri in the top spot and Roman waiting in the wings... the no-handshake-diss to Gerri from Logan made me nervous :S
As for Kendall... I have NO FAITH in his ability to do anything. Same for Connor. The kids' level of competency seems to vary indirectly with their birthing position within the family.
Finally, is it just me or does anyone else see some (pathological) behavioural parallels between Kendall and Ben from Ozark?
edit: 3 episodes this week?!? LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOO! :)

yeah Jimmy I know what you mean - Mad Men is my favorite show of all time. The dialogue is quick, but it's not about life and death in the way other tv shows are. And there's no action. Which means some people think nothing happens in shows like this, but that's far from true. Some say it's just about a bunch of people smoking in an office, π but I know that's not true and I love the characters more than on any other tv show. Succession is not the same show as Mad Men, but it has similarities. And I find it very suspenseful.
