@clmazin
and Damon Lindelof are back to dive deep into the final three episodes of the season. They untie all the knots from Judd Crawford to Dr. Manhattan and every plotline in between.
“There aren’t many episodes of television that nail their multiple roles as exposition, cultural critique, and social commentary on the roles race, class and power play in systemic justice in one single resolute sweep.”
“This show not only evoked thought and conversation, but exposed history that had been forgotten, all while we were able to entertain.” -
