lol I missed the first half of this and tuned in just as everyone was passing out

Greg's turn to be convicted of murder via negligence

i made the mistake of watching the actual oscar last night so: when will this be streaming somewhere help my family is dying

Axiom arriving was such a perfect callback, I spent 15minutes fully convinced this was how it all ended.

My prediction is that Greg will be arrested for murder with much grandstanding and public moralizing by Tim, but DA Rosetti the Rat will drop charges or engineer an acquittal as a way of getting back at Tim

I really don't see how they do another full trial

uncrut gems (crüt), Monday, 10 February 2020 18:14 (four years ago) link

I've just finished Mister America and am only five episodes into season 11, so apologies if this is addressed later in the season or the special: do you think are we meant to take at face value Toni's explanation that it was her own decision to acquit Tim? I always assumed he paid a juror off (presumably with Delgado funds or a job offer, hence campaign manager). OTOH, she seems like a Trump voter so could see her genuinely responding to his insanity.

blatherskite, Monday, 10 February 2020 18:45 (four years ago) link

my feeling is that she decided to acquit him and only after the trial did they hook up but i don't think it's clear

Mordy, Monday, 10 February 2020 18:47 (four years ago) link

it's never cleared up - I assumed the juror payoff as well

Οὖτις, Monday, 10 February 2020 18:47 (four years ago) link

my partner and i have spent the last year catching up on this and finished just in time for the special last night. some thoughts:

* we both agree that the funniest thing they've done so far is when gregg showed up in the giant suit at the end of season 1
* the victorville season was the best
* the trial was amazing-- the fly and tim getting gregg to lie under oath re: star trek was incredible
* this is the best comedy of the moment but it's a really hard sell to people. "no no no trust me, it's incredible. but you gotta hang in there for the first 25 episodes"

"here's my ticket stub, i'd like a seat in the front row!" is a close second for funniest thing they've done

hard to imagine Tim could pull something like this off without it getting immediately revealed during the trial. he is not exactly a cunning person. my view of it is that Toni is one of those people who gets really into stuff like QAnon - seems normal on the surface but has beliefs that are totally fucking crazy

frogbs, Monday, 10 February 2020 21:12 (four years ago) link

i thought it was interesting that she liked Parasite and didn't think it was Chinese psy ops like Tim

uncrut gems (crüt), Monday, 10 February 2020 21:15 (four years ago) link

Is the whole special up to watch?

Western® with Bacon Flavor, Monday, 10 February 2020 21:31 (four years ago) link

my view of it is that Toni is one of those people who gets really into stuff like QAnon - seems normal on the surface but has beliefs that are totally fucking crazy

yeah this is my take too - she presents as normal/competent enough to be Tims liaison to the world as his campaign manager/assistant, but the more time spent listening to her the more clear it becomes that she is a complete mess

turn the jawhatthefuckever on (One Eye Open), Monday, 10 February 2020 21:52 (four years ago) link

I think the fact that Toni was sucked into a prosperity church says a lot - the pastor is (was? lol) a bullshit artist like Tim (though maybe more self aware)

uncrut gems (crüt), Monday, 10 February 2020 21:58 (four years ago) link

i can't find this year's special on adultswim or on youtube?

Piven After Midnight (The Yellow Kid), Tuesday, 11 February 2020 01:02 (four years ago) link

^ that's missing the intro

uncrut gems (crüt), Tuesday, 11 February 2020 13:30 (four years ago) link

like the first few minutes - gregg's entrance etc.

uncrut gems (crüt), Tuesday, 11 February 2020 13:31 (four years ago) link

Was the car audibly running during the AS stream? I can't really tell from the capture^^

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Tuesday, 11 February 2020 18:47 (four years ago) link

there are faint motor sounds being picked up by mics throughout

uncrut gems (crüt), Wednesday, 12 February 2020 02:57 (four years ago) link

my fav thing about that capture is that it keeps the trivia questions intact!!!

uncrut gems (crüt), Wednesday, 12 February 2020 02:58 (four years ago) link

I, uhh, was not previously aware of that charming bit of Cuba Gooding Jr trivia

turn the jawhatthefuckever on (One Eye Open), Wednesday, 12 February 2020 03:32 (four years ago) link

One thing that impressed me were the "Gosford Park"-style multiple conversations going on at once, which I'd imagine is pretty hard to pull off live and they did it more than a few times successfully.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 12 February 2020 06:18 (four years ago) link

The trivia cards feel very...Neil Hamburger.
