"I'm exactly where I want to be, close to the people i want to be around" has been my mission every day for years now.

“You finally quit!” Yeah how bout you? “I’ve just started” I adore this show’s poetry

​@@hellfish2309 Well spotted, after reading you I catch that sutil detail. Do you think the writer chose make Carmy quitting smoking just to use this here? Like an allegory for the moment in life of both characters or I'm just thinking to much ?

Such a life teacher

keep writing.

Also Andrea’s very existence completely contradicts David’s belief that you have to be a total douchebag and/or have your quality of life effectively ruined in order to be great at something.

@@TheAndrewj96Yes, Andrea Terry is the antithesis of David Fields. She’s the light in all the negativity that David brings with him in the kitchen that Carmy spent years in. Carmy’s become more and more like him as the show went on, but it’s not too late for him.

@@scifinerd17 This may not be one of those shows were we get a happy ending. It's possible that, as with Tony Soprano, as the show goes on we'll see how warped and depraved Carmy really is.

@@SoFloCo-ne4rk i doubt that's the case, most likely its a redemption arc. but that's an interesting idea on how it could end. id be very surprised if it leaned that way.

@@SoFloCo-ne4rk I don’t think so, I think the show is more about Carmen trying to break out of that dark, depressive hole he’s been buried in and allowed himself to be buried in for years. Carmen’s not a bad guy, not like Tony.

There’s also the poetry of the opportunity of having minutes and more to give to “real life”, the stuff that Carmy began to confront last season but faltered at and is now retreating from, adopting the tortured artist persona

Actually I don't think it's just the five minutes, it's the damage to your palate as a chef. At that level you need to have everything perfect, and smoking interferes with your taste buds. Now she is no longer a chef, she doesn't need to maintain the same level of discipline about such things. She is letting go....

20 years for an overnight success.

I really loved her role in the show Broadchurch

I would've loved to have seen her on Boiling Point

I thought he worked for McHale in NY first and then some time after that he worked for Terry in Chicago where we see him telling Luca to hurry up and work faster, because of that toxic influence he absorbed.

@@stregadisalem732 What you thought is correct.

@@CognizantCheddarpretty sure chef David is the final place he worked. It would’ve been both his highest position that he spent years on and is shown to be where he’s working when Micheal passes

@@johnathanrios1600 Incorrect. Carm worked for Chef Terry at "Ever" after his time with Chef David. The place with David is definitely _not_ where Carm was shown working when Mikey shot himself. Carm had become world-renowned by that point -- that didn't happen while he was under Chef David's thumb, it happened when he was creating his own dishes for Chef Terry at Ever (called the greatest restaurant in the world in this story-verse).

Your imagination

Just you, the energy is more old friends not sure what to say after so long of not speeking

bro is actually so horny

Definitely you. These are professionals expressing they goals & appreciation for one another. Total respect.

More romantic tension than sexual tension. You get the sense these two are soulmates, but are separate by age and circumstances.

This comment tried to trick you into thinking this is a good comment with complete bullshit. Tries.

Show has one season that slightly isn’t as critically acclaimed and everyone acts like it’s a bad show. If a show’s worst season is still a 8/10, that’s how you know it’s good

I don't understand how you can credit an actor as being "great" while simultaneously suggesting they lack the ability to recognise a good show before they sign on...????

@@williammccormick984 he’s right though.

Yeah.. stupid people are irregularly paranoid that a trick is being played on them.
