January 22, 20232 yr Author Two eps in and season two already better than season 1. This weeks episode may be the best of the series
January 23, 20232 yr Fantastic show, and season 2 really is better than the first. But every time I see Renner on screen it bums me out that it’s really improbable there will be a season 3.
January 23, 20232 yr Chris Evans was giving Renner shit on social media. I don't think he's doing that if Renner is going to lose the leg.

Left leg also laid out on bed...both look intact thankfully, despite all the theories.

January 30, 20232 yr So how the hell is Iris going to make $5k a night hooking in some shitty town in Northern Michigan? Does the entire town of Kingstown have $5,000 combined?
January 30, 20232 yr Also the basement of the only Russian Orthodox Church in town is a pretty obvious hiding spot for Milo there Mike. Spoiler Bunny beating some ass in prison was pretty awesome.

I have hated Dianne Wiest since Parenthood LOL. I just knocked out Season 1. Thanks ice. Two things about Dianne West. 1. She was helping Kyle's marriage in exactly the same was as she did for Martha Plimpton in Parenthood. 2. The trend of shows that I like, that have one female character I can't stand, continues - Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy, Yellowstone, etc..

Hell Biden would probably get questions about it. They’d put Milo in Florence Supermax immediately and his crew would arrested. I like Sheridan, but his stuff requires plenty of suspending disbelief. This show is Sons of Anarchy with Renner and Carcetti//Littlefinger/Aberama Gold so it’s better acting.
February 3, 20232 yr Ok. Someone help me out. And, for the record, I feel regarded for having to ask. Can someone please explain the whole "letter thing" that initiated this series? All I got was that a new inmate upset the apple cart by sending a letter from prison. I recall Bunny ending up with the letter, but never understood what that whole subplot was about.
March 6, 20232 yr Did they have explain why Lemansky is regarded? Surely he wasn’t regarded when he was a cop.
March 8, 20232 yr Just finished Season 1: I would kill all of you to take Iris on a nice date and walk her to the door Dressing up as a prison guard means you can just breeze through hundreds of law enforcement personnel, who are questioning/interviewing everyone? I saw stupid angry bitch mother running out of the house and thought "WTF are you gonna do? You think hundreds of national guard and state police are just gonna let some crazy fat old lady wander around a live war zone?" Yep, that's exactly what happened.
March 9, 20232 yr Yeah, Sons of Anarchy with better actors/writing/cinematography is a fair comparison. In Season 1 Milo kills 3 FBI agents. Every federal agent in Michigan and surrounding states would be sent to Kingstown. Same response for Bunny having the DA whacked. Instead, the assistant DA is very mad at Mike, but lets Bunny out anyway. Finally, the only Russian Orthodox Church in Kingstown should be the first place Mike would look for Milo.
March 28, 20232 yr I guess I liked the finale? Good stuff : - The monologue as the end of the episode. I think it would be been more emotionally raw if Renner delivered to the camera instead of voiceover, but oh well. - Littlefinger's Sons of Anarchy ridiculous storyline finally comes to end. I love the actor, but master villain with no repercussions never works for me. - The shoot out was tense, tight, and well shot. I'm not sure if they shot it in some little house, but it felt like it. Sheridan always done well with the ballistics scenes. Confusing stuff: - Not only does Bunny get a pass on killing a DA and the attempted murder of a cop, they reward him by allowing his guys to take out the AB Leader. I give up on trying to figure out the gang politics. - Iris and Mike haven't slept together. Did I miss something? - Milo dies off screen. It would be very, very lame to bring him back, but I guess it's on the table.

Spoiler He’s definitely not dead and coming back. After the explosion, you hear him on the phone with the dark haired chick from the club. ”Are you ok?” ”Yes, everything went as planned.” or something to that effect.

There's gotta be some holes, but I can't even pick them out clearly because not familiar with all that shit lol. It took me halfway into season 2 to "fully" understand what Mike does. "What would you say you do here?" Mike being invincible and getting out of every jam is kinda cool, yet unbelievable. Would have rather had him get banged up or someone saves him for once. Having Master of Coin hiding out the entire season and then finally appearing was weak.

April 3, 20232 yr I got the sense that they may have tweaked the finale to be the final episode in case Renner can't come back.

June 10, 20241 yr Yay. Paula Malcomson stops by to ruin another promising show. Can Hollywood not find another white woman to nervously smoke a cigarette?
June 17, 20241 yr A Mike prison prequel needs to happen. The show either needs a spinoff or a some flashbacks in a bad away.

June 27, 20241 yr I don’t want to distract Mr. Sheridan from his various projects, but a 1-2 episode flashback arc of Mike in the joint with Callahan needs to happen. They can’t keep alluding to events that we’ve never seen on film. You remember Mike and a smirk isn’t enough. I’m sorry. Bad shit went down, and he owes Callahan, but you have to show us the why.

July 22, 20241 yr Mike’s reluctance to remove Bunny from the board is troublesome. It reminds me of the Sopranos when the audience is screaming at Tony for em entire season to whack Richie. Speaking of The Sopranos, Cousin Brian sighting. Renner is little and didn’t really get the drop on him. Corrections Officer Cousin Brian is like 6’5’’. I’d think he could handle himself a little better.

I think it was the finale but season 3 episode ten crushes HotD finale. Fucking badass.
August 12, 20241 yr Vulture pointed out that Sheridan doesn’t have a single writing or directing credit on Season 3. I’ll buy it because S3 was the best season.
November 24Nov 24 Small quibble. The Aryan Brotherhood does not exist outside of the federal prison system. There are wanna be gangs in state prison like the AB of Texas. They’ve been pretty quiet since a 2006 RICO trial. Mike was in Callahn’s gang. To just casually say he’s AB is kind of lazy writing because Kingstown is a state prison. But hey it’s Sheridan. The warden is growing on me. Edie Falco portrays a pilled out antihero well. An interesting podcast on how the streets and prison are very different ecosystems.

And Sheridan probably DOES know it but doesn’t care because nobody else is listening to loser ex con podcasts.
