I dissent. I am Shiv. Not proud of it, but it's the truth.


Are you my SIL?

Read this last night and I think it might deserve it’s own thread, as it seems more about strivers—one of DCUM’s favorite topics—than Jeremy Strong himself.


You should post i wherever you think fit (even if it's not on this specific sub-forum).

Yes, I saw him interviewed on Jimmy Fallon and he was pretty much… Greg.

No, I like it better that we don’t have the details. Kendall already feels tragic. I don’t need to feel quite so much sympathy for what are really pretty horrible people. They’re adults now; they are responsible for themselves.


DP. Totally disagree. I would love to see what their childhood dynamic was, who Connor’s mom is, when they all started living together, etc. There is so much I’d like to know about their lives beyond what we actually see.

I think Greg is sort of a walking flashback to help us see how they got like this.


“We are all Greg”
That should be a shirt

I don't see what everyone else is saying about Shiv's wardrobe. I thought she looked perfectly professional throughout the season (loved her green dress and gold necklace at Kendall's 40th). Yes, she has gained some weight and would look a lot better in A-line sundresses instead of the tight, figure-forming, low-cut ones she wore in Italy. Willa's wardrobe in Italy was perfection - loose, flowy sundresses. Gorgeous.

Kendall breaks my heart. He is obnoxious and arrogant, but so, so broken and sad. It was cringeworthy when he was sobbing in Italy and Shiv and Roman just kept cracking jokes and acting stupid. Kendall really has no one - except Naomi (why wasn't she at the wedding, btw?), but all she does is simper at him with her dumb smirk and support absurd things like his horrible birthday party.

Roman absolutely drives me nuts. I know a lot of posters consider him their favorite character, but I'm done with the ridiculous dialog, f-this f-that, stupid sexual "quips." It's just not funny anymore.

Greg used to be my favorite, but his bumbling personality has gotten old. Tom is my new fave - he is simultaneously evil and hilarious. Hope he gets an Emmy for that role.


Shiv is what? Early 30's? This was a banger party in Manhattan and while she looked good, the outfit looked like she was coming from a 50 year old's dinner party and was just stopping in.

I wish they would devote an entire season to the childhood/adolescence/college years of the Roy family. So much there to explore.
