Boo! Hiss! to Nate

Can't wait until series 3, hope there is one

We are so behind the times! Just watched episode 1 and 2 this week, can't read all your posts, but the length of the thread suggests we are on to a winner.

Best TV show I’ve watched in years, in fact one of less than a handful I’ve actually sat down and watched rather than it be background whilst I do something else.
I love it and no spoilers but I knew !

Me too ! It’s the one show I watch without a phone in hand ! There is so much more to it than the verbal script. Blink and you miss something that becomes poignant later on

but yeah, theres a lot of the journey that is unsaid, so you need to pay attention!


one of the guys on my normal tv forum had some good words about it all too...

 

I feel Nate's story the most as a first generation child of immigrants. It is almost ingrained in the culture that you have to drive your kids so hard to get ahead because of all the difficulties associated with starting over in a brand new country. For a long time a part of the subculture of immigrants was that success was a zero-sum game, if I am to succeed that means I must be taking the place of someone else. There's not enough room for all of us to succeed. That devolves into if I am to succeed that means I must put someone else down to do it.

Nate is a product of all his small successes never being good enough for his dad, and they have highlighted this and juxtaposed it alongside Sam's dad's pride in his activism. Rebecca hating then forgiving her mom for staying with her dad. Roy realizing the fatherly influence he has on his niece. Jaime, Ted, et al.

i absolutely loved the s2 finale. i think it covered everything i needed from it!

 

i'm really glad trent crimm (the independent) got fired for revealing his source, that would have wound me up if there no consequences!
