I'm so blown away by this episode.

I see some people on Twitter and elsewhere complaining that this season is too episodic and not following a single story, and I have to wonder why those people are wanting anything other than the brilliance we're getting here every week.

If you haven't seen Sammy Sosa lately, it's every bit as worth the reaction they gave out on the show.

Their reactions reminded me of this famous pic.

I guess, but if I could've called the police I could've called Earn and Al first lmao.

Prototype Viktor · Apr 6, 2018

So many places keep saying 41 minutes as the episode length but my version is 36 minutes.

Superpupperbabysassy · Apr 6, 2018

This show is starting to fall apart. The first episode was an amazing character study on Katt Williams. The rest of this season has been very unfunny. The MJ episode was awful and only caters to Twitter people.

They made a tragic horror short film that still delivered all the surreal unpredictable fuckery and masterful satire the series is known for?

-Pyromaniac- · Apr 6, 2018

I actually found the Darious episode to be really funny. Creepy and scary at times but pretty funny.

I'd be mortified trying to look for my phone right where two dead bodies are laying and having to see brains on the floor. Doing that while tied up...oof.

It wasn't very scary. I didn't find very unpredictable either. I'm going to continue watching but if this show doesn't improve by the season finale, I'm done.

Donald Glover Stayed 'Frighteningly' in Character as Teddy Perkins While on 'Atlanta' Set

Yeah, mine was also 36 minutes. Did we miss something? It also seemed to have a cohesive beginning and ending.

Why is the first episode a great character study on Katt Williams and this episode not a great character study on Teddy or who he represents in the music industry? How in the world does the episode cater to Twitter? What does that even mean?

Boogs31 · Apr 7, 2018

Is it bad I didn't realize it was Donald Glover until about halfway through?

Shrug maybe fake commercials added? I haven't found a reason despite at least 3 places saying 41 minutes

I need Donald to get nominated for this particular acting role so he can go to the award show in character.

The show doesn't need to be funny to be good

It's a character/setting drama first and a comedy second, IMO

His phone was upstairs.

Otherist · Apr 7, 2018

I think of this show like literary fiction. It doesn't need to slot into a genre or follow a plot arc, it's just pure artistic expression. I truly respect that.

CreepingFear · Apr 7, 2018

I was a little drunk when watching this latest episode. I was tripping. I couldn't watch it without stopping at least 3 or 4 times.

CloudWolf · Apr 7, 2018

That was one hell of an episode. Got major Get Out vibes.

Crazy that Donald Glover played Teddy. You could kinda see it in some scenes, but damn he was great.

Disco · Apr 7, 2018

That was both hilarious and unsettling. The ending was pretty sad as well, Keith Stanfield is straight up best actor to come out of this series (his performance in Short Term 12...whew)

I'm liking these off the beaten path episodes quite a bit. The last one with the barber adventures was hella enjoyable as well. Sometimes its needed to divert from Earn and his misery

LionPride · Apr 7, 2018

I am uhhhhhhhhhhh

Uncomfortable watching this episode, knowing that it's Glover as Pekrins is fucking me uo

I kept asking myself if it was him, like the eyes looked familiar, but I think about halfway through I had convinced myself it had to be him.

That would be hilarious, and actually get me to tune in to an award show again.

Fendajaz · Apr 7, 2018

I can foresee Teddy being a popular halloween costume this year.

Yea I think people forgot that this show has never been a pure comedy. Hell, after the first season it should've been clear that the show will basically do whatever it wants at this point.

I hate this episode now.

Nameless · Apr 7, 2018

I love the idea of the cops inevitably searching Darius and finding the U Mad hat.

Epcott · Apr 7, 2018

This Teddy episode is like a creepy satire of Michael Jackson. WTF at the mannequin. This is too weird, even for Darius lol.

Just finished. Wow, did not expect a horror psychological thriller episode. That ending...

Firewithin · Apr 7, 2018

That was some unsettling television damn

Alpende · Apr 7, 2018

Loved, loved the episode. I was tensed up the entire runtime, so good.

Don't forget, he did sign all the paperwork for the piano, so maybe he end up with it after the investigation is through.
It'll probably show up as a call back before the season is over.

Trueee. I'd be good with that and almost expect it now.

Dropping Dimes · Apr 7, 2018

Just caught up on the season so far, and of course it's amazing. Didn't like that Ern solo episode, but the paperboy and Darius episodes were fire.
When you think he's calling the butler, but it's just to help him remember. So creepy, was not expecting that from this show.
