The Righteous Gemstones (HBO) TV Show • Page 55

Rewatching season 3 since the series finale and this part kills me every time

 

eastbound s1 is still the best thing he's ever done but overall it's gemstones > EBAD >>> VP for me

 

I think Gemstones is probably my favorite, maybe due to recency bias but also because I think Baby Billy is one of the funniest characters I've ever seen in a TV show.

 

Gemstones > eastbound > VP

love them all

 

still need to see eastbound

I liked Gemstones more than Vice Principals because it was less cynical, like those weirdos truly loved each other

 

I'd have to rewatch Eastbound but I'm inclined to put it first. Gemstones over VP for sure though.

 

Let the boy watch

 

What a great finale. I stand by my “weakest narrative, funniest season” take earlier in the thread. I definitely liked it way more than season two.

 

Eastbound is….perfect. Stevie is such a good character.

 

All the fixins

 

watch it, ass blood

 

eastbound and down season 1 is one of the greatest seasons of any show ever IMO

i'd go

eastbound and down s1/s2 > VP > RG > the rest of EB&D

its all shades of great though

 

will ferrell as an occasional guest in eastbound has the funniest lines of any of the characters in the three shows

 

“He knocked his fuckin eye out!”

 

"Look at me Dustin, I'm a fucking icon." That scene in EB S1 EP1 where he is throwing the ball at the garage is amazing. "Gunna wake the neighbors tonight."

 

Give Dr. Watson his own show pronto.

 

Gemstones > Vice Principals > Eastbound

 

Tbh, as much as I loved these characters, I feel like a better ending would have been them all losing everything considering they're rich bastards who exploit dumb Christians haha. Mega churches are the worst

 

This is correct. The entire sequence where Darryl loses his eye is great.

 

“i can feel it in my plums” and “let the boy watch” are among the hardest ive laughed at a single line delivery

 

I feel like Eastbound and Down is a classic.

So that, then Gemstones, then VP.
