He kind of is. Very liberal and a activist.

I feel like the writers barely have to write for him. He’s so similar to Ewan in real life

Is he a communist?

@@gezenews I think they just mean his personality and his politics. This is a guy who superglued himself to a Starbucks counter for a protest.

@@gezenews this is why prestige tv's best only lived in Counterpart. where it's not so "i'm hyper realistic and full on sarcasm and yeah, people are JUST bad and world is JUST bad, boohoo" esp when such entertainment ARE made by oligarchs. why don't u blame HBO/warner disc who hired him?

Even Adam McKay said he needed time to recover from the last episode, which is 90 minutes😮

How is this all gonna get resolved in one episode 😭😭😭

@@MargotTenenbaum000 Well, at least it IS 90 minutes ... we may all be lying on the floor by the end

I'm pre grieved.

@@MargotTenenbaum000 i have no idea but somehow they're gonna end this show perfectly I'm sure 😭😂

I just started sobbing watching that scene just because Kieran is so good he sold it so well I couldn’t help it

I was 50/50 empathy and HA! Little slime puppy. They both killed in this scene.

He should win a Emmy for that performance!

Me too I was moved by his eulogy, It seemed to me that Ewan was a real person, the funeral was a real funeral.

Ikr lol. James was just going all in, no holds barred, and I’m here for it. 👏

He’s already at the table with characters like Tony Soprano and Walter White. Highest praise I can give!

Hear, hear!

100% same!

i agree... he was perfectly cast like the rest of them the whole show is a masterpiece

It has to be close the the best episode of the series. It quietly tied up a lot of story threads and changed our perspective on the story to date.

what would evil uncle do? was the world better or was the world worse

Dont forget "endgame"

alternatively it was just as much of a play as every Roy does, with a different agenda

He DID go that route at the second half of his speech. Which diminished the sincerity of his childhood story. As the guy before says, he played the game to push his own agenda

@@sevendaughters "the roys" more like the HBOs

literally no interest in politics. but in terms of the kids getting a real job or whatever to feel the pain, well why would there be any pain to begin with if, since uare going there at all, the roys disband or whatever. i mean that's what he suggested right? that they stop exploiting and feel the exploitation? then why not have all corporation stop exploiting? i mean forget about votes. i mean isn't that what he meant? forget democracy he just literally asked for equality for all, forget one word termed ideologies. surely it's not contrarian to "but the smarter people should be fairly compensated for their naturally more yielding contributions." I mean u don't see anyone going around protesting Steve Jobs ran a shitco. I mean sure they hired sweatshops in china and people jumped off the building, but I don't see u tossing your Iphone. (fyi I only ever bought iphone 4 cus one of the plane ticket mates I went with coerced me to get a phone plan with her)

@@lyrilljackson You could have stopped at "literally no interest in politics".

He started spitting hot fire re the Murdochs and came back for seconds on the final question.

He's more based than Ewan, that's for sure

those withOUT intergrity are the actual NRPI.

​@@lyrilljackson what's that

​@@paul-nj1ig no real person involved

Who'd have thought that people don't want their children put on hormones without their knowledge. What is the world coming to.😢

@@winstonwolf5706 What🤨

Just watch it again. I'd rather they finish it now in good form that prolong and destroy it.

I thought he might

Kieran Culkin knocked that scene out of the park!

I knew he was gonna fail but his reaction was so real, legitimately made me tear up a bit seeing him break like that

His meltdown has kinda been foreshadowed by the way he lost his temper with Gerri

Lol what?! I 100% expected pathetic Roman to crumble...he's the biggest fraud of them all trying to win the Throne...a clueless, pathetic little facist punk even his own father used with no regard for his obvious narcissistic sociopathic being.

I was about to say he was a hypocrite, but I saw you said that about the actor not the character

Leftism is a mental disease in 2023. Destroyers of all that is good.

Kendall generally seems to do much better in public when he doesn't have time to overthink (the eulogy, the "my father is a malignant present" speech etc.) and that's a winning trait for him. It seems like in those moments his hidden confidence can finally shine through, while on a day to day basis he flounders under the weight of wanting to live up to Logan's (and his own) expectations and that's what does it for him. Shiv is the opposite: she tends to be very self-possessed and quietly authoritative in private situations (the scene in Norway when Matsson notices her because she's just sitting there and observing like he is, while her brothers try to impress him, or the scene with Mencken in the last episode where everyone flocks to him and one word from her draws him away from the rest. Also the way she took charge when Logan was out of it at the shareholders meeting). But she flounders and blurts stuff out when she's put on the spot in public (the Pierce's dinner, the interview in Switzerland) and that ruins her public image - maybe it's because she was never given the chance to practice her public performances? Anyway it's a shame, because she's clearly very capable behind the scenes, as her political career shows. In both cases - makes you think how formidable they both could be if given proper support from their dad (for Ken emotional support, for Shiv professional).

I’d argue the opposite, it felt a little tacked on and not in character. More of a “patriarchy amirite?” moment.

yeah lol

Selling funerals?

That was utterly ridiculous

@@anons000 It did seem like an advertisement for the funeral guy. Especially “And that is why people choose (whatever company name is)”

My reaction was different, I liked how much pride Villanova seems to take in his work, and there's nothing wrong with that. Sure not everyone could afford his company, but then - that's why he was the consultant.

i think greg has both logan and ewan in his personality hes a mix of both in my opinion

same!

Ha ha I was thinking the same thing. It’s like she’s interviewing Ewan

Perfect analogy

Yes!

Yes I feel like announcing that is an unecessary «giveaway».

Either that, or he dies, would be my guess.

@@shellyfox9338 I started to think that this morning - maybe he ODs or something. Would definitely be a twist of an ending. He’s in the last podcast because he either ‘wins’ the top spot or he does not. No in between there.

Calm down.

@@Pedant_Patrol no.

Or maybe suicide

What about the sweed?

Red herring

I hope so. The original plan/promise was Kendall would take over. Logan renigged on that and made it clear to Kendall that he had no confidence in him to do it right. Everyone else feared Logan and wouldn't back Kendall, although Kendall always had the capability. I guess power is a hard thing to give up...more addictive than money.

'Capitalist'? The RWNJ's hate her.

I would never had gone vegan if it weren’t for that film, and James Cromwell too apparently!
