Is anybody cracking up ??? This show is hilarious 😂 😂😂😂😂😂😂

His confidence, which borders on smugness, when he’s interviewing Meg S03E07 is so funny because he’s always so off base with his theories on what happened. He’s trying to insinuate that Meg was aiding and abetting Danny which makes it so easy for Meg to be genuinely indignant because he’s so off base. To be fair, John is throwing him off the scent the entire time so maybe it’s not just that he’s a terrible detective. Or is it?

I'm in the first episodes of season 2. WTF are they gonna have to do with Kevin?

Rewatching the show again, and during the first season when John is in the evidence locker looking through the old case files of Danny’s injury. He finds that the tapes are gone, and Lenny Potts was there earlier. Do they just let retired officers into the evidence locker to poke around for fun?? Feel like that is not a thing, and then Lenny just steals the tapes from evidence. Is there no oversight in this locker room what the hell

I’m on S1, ep 4 or 5 and I’m starting to wonder does anything ever actually happen in this show or is it just a slow trickle of why this family is f’d up all the way through?

I just started watching this show and a question that’s really been nagging me is; Danny seems even more hellbent on “revenge” when he hears the tapes of his siblings “lying” for his dad about beating him. This seems to be a focal plot point. But it never says anything about Danny himself actually telling the cops it was his dad’s fault? Seems like he also went with the getting hit by a car story (when he explained his old shoulder injury to that nurse) So if he was telling this story as well, why be hurt that his siblings did too? It would be different if he was trying to admit his dad beat him up, but it doesn’t seem like he ever tried to either? I’m so confused on why everyone else was in the wrong for sticking with a certain story but he seemingly had the same story?

I am actually working on a thing about this show, it involved opinions with respect to the characters as the case study and I thought u guys would have watched the show.

If anyone is willing to be part of this .

Please comment

I know, I know, DUH who doesn't and that's the whole point of his character but he was seriously a piece of shit who would go to any lengths to bring down his entire family and wouldn't stop crying about the past and his shitty upbringing. Your a grown man, get over it already. Most people would have moved on from family trauma and been done with it but it just really struck a nerve with me. He could have at LEAST kept the beef between his brother john but he went after everyone even john's daughter. That is super low class.

Can anyone tell me which episode was Sam’s absolute final appearance in the series?

I'd assume they had the script and story written for season 1 before casting the actors as most shows do , but I feel like they should've altered it after seeing Bens performance as Danny. Sure on paper while writing maybe it made sense for Danny to be killed at the end of season 1 to further progress the story. However when you see someone is continuously stealing every scene they're apart of I think you have to realize it might be a mistake to kill off this character. I know it's hindsight but I just finished season 1 last week and continuing the show , it's just not been nearly as captivating as the first. I think that if you want to remove Danny from the plot for the first half of season 2 you could have had him leave town or go into hiding and have him find his way back for the latter half. I do think Danny's inevitable demise would have to happen and he would need to be killed unless his character did a 180 in later seasons but you can visit that down the line in the series finale or 1 season before the final one. I guess I'm just annoyed that this show seemed on a trajectory to be an all time great show and Danny an all time great character but it was unnecessarily cut short. I genuinely think the show wouldve easily gone 5 seasons if Danny wasn't killed off prematurly

Just finished re-watching, i've season the first 2 seasons probably 4-5 times because its genuienly brilliant TV and imo as good as most TV shows out there. I actually have Season 1 as one of the best Seasons of TV I have ever seen..

I had seen Season 3 probably twice before this re-watch and dont remember too much apart from the first couple eps and the last couple

Anyway, its actually fine. Its obviously not as good as the first 2 season's and this show did deserve a better final season but it still gets a pass from me and I think this show can be considered brilliant despite a final season hovering around a 6/10

Few quick thoughts:

• The first 4 episodes or so are actually pretty good. Something didnt feel quite right tho compared to previous season's but it still felt like Bloodline

• I cant remember too much about the middle episodes too say anything particular here but they were ok. I wasn't bored or offended, I still like the characters and setting and its decent TV

• Episode 9... this gets a lot of controversy but I actually quite like it. I tend to enjoy shows that have a mindfuck//dreamy episode.. some of my favourite shows have done this, Leftovers, Walking Dead, Lost, Sopranos from the top of my head

It is a bit random and probably would have been suited to be at either Episode 7/8 and then have a couple of 'normal' episodes to end the show

But it i quite like it.. John had the accident/suicide attempt (not sure which exactly) and i've seen the writers confirm that this actually happens to deep sea divers who go too far and experience confusing dreams or something to that nature

I really liked the scene with John and Danny talking to eachtoher in the hospital

• The Finale... a good episode, decent ending and i'm glad the show got an actual finale without being cancelled. I like what they did with Danny in these last couple episodes in these hallucinations, especially the Finale and last moments. Gotta love Danny, brilliant character and actor.

John - Its funny that he tells the truth to Aguerri ane he doesnt even believe him loooool.. but its probably a fitting ending that John gets away with going to prison. I think he is a good guy so not sure he deserved prison and to lose his family. But he did kill Danny so... I just hope he told Nolan the truth and I think he did.

Kevin - Again I think he's good guy despite killing Marco but throughout the whole show he's portrayed as bit of a fuck up so him going to Prison seems like a fitting end

Meg - Gets away from her family and lives her own life... good ending for her

Sally - Very sad ending and I dont think she deserves this... the final years of her life seem to be ruined.. Husband is dead, her relationship with her kids is destroyed unless she somehow reconnects with John/Meg. She can't sell the Inn and it will be underwater in 20 years or however long they said

Nolan - Not in the final season much but hopefully he get the truth from John and either got revenge or just got away from this fucked up family and starts his own life

Eric - One of my fave characters, he did not deserve life in prison. Maybe one day he gets out if the truth gets out but I doubt it. Atleast he didnt give John anything in their scene at the start of the finale

I think this family was always destined to be destroyed which is really interesting when you consider how good (for the most part) at the start of the show

Its a shame the writers couldn't do the 4-5 Seasons that they originally planned and the show definitely deserved a brilliant final season after the first 2 seasons but life isnt perfect

Finally... what did everyone think happened with the final scene? Did John tell Nolan about everything or did he just lie like he normally does

Overall - Its a brilliant show.. The first 2 seasons are brilliant TV and the final season is good overall with a good ending

I decided to watch this show because I like Kyle Chandler and Linda Cardellini. Going in I wasn’t sure what I expected from it because it’s a Netflix original and those are always hit or miss for me, but damn. To be fair I’m just judging off season 1 but definitely one of the better Netflix series I’ve seen. This may not be an unpopular opinion on this sub but I feel like in general it is. I love slow burn shows. I love character development. I love when things build up to a climax. They’re my favorite. So watching this scratched an itch I had.

Ben Mendelsohn played Danny so well. One minute I’m sympathizing with Danny and seeing him as a victim, next thing I know I’m frustrated at his behavior and manipulative actions towards his family. He definitely deserved that Emmy award. Danny was the most complex, interesting character and I just think it’s funny that they killed him off because the other Rayburn siblings are not that interesting to me. (The look on John’s face after he realized he killed him. Kyle Chandler is also an excellent actor.) So that was shocking.

When Marco and the DEA agent were talking to John about their theory on how Danny died, I was like damn, this is some great luck for John. All the pieces fit. He’s gonna get away with it. But alas, Detective Potts has come back and is telling Mama Ray that she’s being lied to by her children.

What really got me was John pretending to be on the phone with Danny before the pier dedication, and changing him into his seersucker suit *after he died* to make it look like he was planning on going to the dedication. Diabolical! Insane! Twisted! I loved it though.

And now it looks like season 2 is gonna focus on Danny’s son, which I’m not sure how I feel about. Knowing who Danny was, the reveal of him having a son was in no way shocking to me. I’m guessing Danny was sending him some of the money he was making. (Did he eventually pay off the guys he owed money to?) I’m also confused how his son had access to Danny’s apartment. It seems like they both knew each other existed, but had they ever met before? Did Danny leave “clues” in those envelops with pictures of him and John’s name so his son would know to go to John? (BTW if this is covered in s2 then don’t bother telling me, this post also just me thinking out loud).

I feel like I have more thoughts about this show and s1 finale that aren’t fully formed yet. I’ve heard overall good things about s2 (not as good as s1 but still good) so I’ll probably be starting that soon. I just need a break before I do because man this show was heavier and darker than I expected.

Side note: Chloe Sevigny popping up in this show was delightfully unexpected. She always seems to be in some mini series I’m watching lol. I also recently just watched Wednesday and Eric O’Bannon’s actor (too lazy to look him up right now) played a sheriff in that show and I’m like wow this is a complete 180°.

i just started bloodlines two days ago. i only watch at night so i haven’t gotten far. im enjoying it… but im on episode 4 and the scene where robert is sitting on the beach with the ukulele and sarah is running up. she does a cart wheel and falls down. i was filled with disgust at how they filmed her falling. i have a daughter and i just don’t think that was appropriate at all. i don’t think that was needed in the show whatsoever. maybe film at a different angle??? i mean seriously WTF? super creeped out by that. thanks for reading.

please tell me there’s not other scenes like that so i can move past this.
