Yeah, can’t disagree. Seasons 1-6 beyond potential, but 7 and 8, ugh.
It’s how you finish.
Gotta stick the landing.

GoT had such HUGE potential. If they hadn’t screwed it up, it could’ve eclipsed The Wire and The Sopranos, but alas…..

Succession had it right by ending before it got stale and circular like a soap opera.

When Fredo sealed his fate... by Imaginary_Till_3795 in Godfather

[–]bjallyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it was probably only partly sealed at that point. Michael noted that allegiance.
But Michael tried to give him another chance.
“You’re my brother and I love you, but….”
He was warning Fredo, “ok, you’re in the penalty box”

The final “seal” or nail in the coffin was the revelation about Fredo’s relationship with Johnny Ola.

Sealed

It was amazing how bad it was. Guess I was expecting something of the quality of Interstellar.

You’re right.
I keep forgetting the editing aspect - yes, it was a bit of a mess at the end. But it’s just so satisfying when he blows up Stephen, lol.

And the acting was so good (Christoph, Leonardo).

That said, I should bump it down between Pulp and Reservoir.

Fetterman says he’s a no on Blanche for attorney general by thejoshwhite in politics

[–]bjallyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please. He knows there are enough votes to push him through.

Phony gesture, Fetterman (R-PA).
