GOD. I will never be over that finale. So meaty. So juicy. So delicious. For so many reasons.
But I need to just. I have to talk about Rabbot.
Jack and Robby have THE most compelling dynamic I have seen in an age…and yes i am someone who ships them and wants them to get married and make out and fuck nasty 24/7 and have lovers spats etc etc etc, but even if you don’t see them like that, how magnificent is it to witness this strong bond of friendship between two highly accomplished, terribly traumatized Gen X guys play out onscreen over the entire course of the past two seasons??
The subtle (and not so subtle) nods to their long history together and bone-deep mutual understanding which have engendered this vulnerability and trust…they don’t WANT to have these tough conversations and crack themselves open wide to reveal everything that’s raw and tender and sore to one another, of course, but they know they CAN when they NEED to because they are SAFE with each other even if one of them lashes out and it’s happening in front of ME and MY SALAD and GOD!! Onscreen!! Complete with voices cracking with emotion and beautiful tired eyes shining with tears!! Men who aren’t afraid to be vulnerable and honest and soft with each other!!! what a glorious time to be alive!! them!! Them!!! THEM!!!!! I will NEVER recover!!!!
