@bayimports oh shit, was that the finale....
Yeah was a weak last ep, and oddly, some of the decisions Ellie makes and her actions, do kinda remind me of playing a video game....but yep, her being such a fucking annoying character!!!
Her idiotic decision to jump on the boat and chase 7 or 8 boatloads of armed people.S3 focussing on Abby, COULD be good, but she seems a sullen reckless character like Ellie, so not hopeful
Obviously they want us to assume Ellie is dead, although I guess Dina could have shot Abbey as I hadnt seen her anywhere
Your spoiler is accurate as I read the wiki from what was meant to be in the game..
It is a focus on Abby and yes we get to know if she really shot Ellie or not, I wont spoil that but from what I read, I don't know if I am going to like the next part, unless it gets more zombies -
@taniwharugby yeah had no idea it was the finale until I saw here. I'm completely fucking lost and yeah no interest in keeping up now if that bizarre mess is how it will be in future seasons.

Mobland - all in all, solid series.
Be interesting to see how they tidy it up (unsure if it wil be set up for another series)
Nice little cameo for Toby Jones too, always quality.
Regarding Maeve, makes it too easy to try and point her as the rat, although I think she craves the power, so if she is, there is a bigger plan. Also wouldnt put it past Conrad to be pulling the strings given how unhinged he seemed in his interactions with Richie & Jaime, with no fear of potential consequences.Given the fact we assume Eddie was just told he is Conrads son (which seemed clear a few eps back) I do find it odd how much Maeve seems invested in him, or maybe just a ruse as she using him to create chaos toward whatever her end goal is, particuarly given how she doesnt want anything to do with Seraphina who is also not biologically hers.
Too much to tie up in one episode
I hope it goes to Season 2. Best thing out there at the moment.
It's a another woman not Maeve who's the rat -

It's a another woman not Maeve who's the ratYeah - lot of stuff happening... was confused by Taniwha's post - then realised: A - it was still running; and B - I hadn't watched latest episode yet.
Problem/bonus of watching this sort of stuff under-the-influence - I often have to re-watch entire episodes to remind myself of what I've already seen. Really need to get my shit together.
Anyway - agreed with SnowyMike:They seem to be suggesting that blonde lawyer bint is the rat. Although the logic of Harry coming to that conclusion - just because she says she thinks getting into Fentanyl is a bad idea - doesn't make much sense, when it was exactly the same rationale for Conrad suspecting Archie, and Harry didn't buy that?Oh - and re the psychopath being Conrad's kid - I didn't click to that. The mention of "your OTHER brother" - "you bitch" - had me confused. Really couldn't figure it out - until Taniwha's post made it click, then I saw Conrad take him for a chat. Dumb Kruse.
And indeed - Maeve's total acceptance of him but hatred of Seraphina - doesn't track. -
@Kruse yeah I also thought there isn't enough pointing to her (or some others) knowing some of what had happened, although as he knows Maeve is an evil bitch, other rat acts come into play...
Harry's play at the end shows he has an end game too.

Fuck - I need to go re-watch it... might as well do it right now while sober. Work can wait...
Oh yes - that's right. That dinner-table scene was worth a re-watch too.

-
@MiketheSnow I think he already knew, but is also why he did it....Freddie was a liability, talked too much and easily, and if Conrad found out Harry knew all along and hadnt told him.

Ah yes - of course.

And... ah yes - of course.
Fuck I'm a dummy when I'm watching this stuff after several hours of beer+sunshine.
BTW - when he was talking to Freddie - and mentioned "me and <somebody? the cuckolded son?> are going to take it all over..." - was he actually telling the truth? Or just giving him an incentive to talk? Or both? -
@Kruse I think it was a ruse...but who knows, I am seeing lots of potential ruses everywhere
-
@taniwharugby Yeah - I assumed it was a ruse. But now I'm wondering if it was a lie with a kernel of truth.

Kruse assumed a ruse

So annoyed with the last of us. Fantastic visuals, great set pieces but by fuck what an absolute terrible character Ellie is. Infinitely unlikeable and I genuinely can't tell whether the actress is awful or just the character, actually pretty sure its both. Last episode from our household, rest of the writing also fell away this season too. Massive shame.
Liking mobland, place it as 'goodish' not 'great'. Another issue where characters (aside from Harry) are generally unlikeable. How did sopranos make so many bad characters likeable? Anyway fingers crossed for s2
-
@Rembrandt just hoping Mobland doesn't lose it's head up it's own arse like Gangs of London....which I fear is already happening off the last couple of episodes.

Sopranos was very good special

Definitely has the potential to go full cartoon
Fingers crossed it doesn't

For me - the introduction of the Kat character - was the first inkling of it going cartoon-ish.
Not that I mind cartoon-ish... it was just nice to have something a little more serious for a while.
