@@jackson857 holy shit bro HOLY SHIT

I think to play Logan you have to find truth and honesty in that twisted form of love. Brian is a really really special actor

I really like that about Brian Cox in this role. Him justifying Logan's actions and ways make for a much more complex character and performance

What did Roman do again? From what I remember he just fielded a call badly

​@@bigpictureguys8415not just here

gender is irreleveant. He does not take advice from anyone.

@@Sig509 I mention the gender aspect because he’s making a point to act woke & holier than thou.

They loooove to talk shit about Shiv

Idk I like it I always laugh when they do

That’s the point.

Omg thank yooooou 😇

This episode it was crazy the grandstanding he did to Greg about not letting himself get used when Ewan’s lawyer friend literally said in front of Greg that they were just going to use Greg to look into the company and dig up dirt.

He pretty clearly said in the last season Dundee episode to greg that either stop associating with the Logan family or else he will not get any money from Ewan, Greg doesn't do that and is surprised when Ewan does exactly what he has always said he will do ? Hell he even gave him a chance by hooking up with his lawyer but instead greg again went with Logan's lawyer. Ewan isn't wrong to have a moral ground anyway. SPOILERS Ewan even accepts this fault in him during the funeral episode when he accepts that there is a meagerness in logan and him too, but the difference is he has tried to do the right thing whereas at some point in time Logan just stopped trying and accepted being the asshole which makes all the difference.

His mega rich granddad was completely absent from his life until Greg joined up with Logan. The only reason Ewan does anything for Greg is only so Logan can’t have him. Ewan is definitely evil.

This is the worst opinion that keeps cropping up. Ewan is not perfect but he's a damn sight better than the rest of the Roys. I don't understand what's so wrong about deciding to leave your money to a charity rather than your grandson, particularly after you gave him a clear warning. He was angry this episode bc Greg didn't have the decency to call him or the lawyer up before dispensing with his service--and considering that lawyer is a good friend of his, that would feel like a slight. Greg played this horribly, and he rightfully lost. Ewan takes issue with what Logan does for good reason. Is he a hypocrite bc he's still associated with the company? Possibly. But I don't see what would be better if he left. He's there ostensibly to see when his vote can pivot the company to a direction he likes. If that makes him a hypocrite, it's still the least of the evils that this show regularly features.

@@grasshopperye3593 Him voting in favor of Logan during the board room coup instead of abstaining throws everything you just said in the trash. He not only co-opted the Roy family’s actions while running the company he played a active role in halting any change that could be made in-house. If Ewan truly thinks his brother is the worst human to exist, he put in a pathetic effort to do anything about it, but then expects Greg to live a lifestyle Ewan got gifted from his brothers evil work. A hypocrite and a coward.

that was in quotes. Raisin likely just doesn't want to deal with Logan again. By the way, is Raisin a Dem?

​​​@@kvm6He isn't. In the next episode at the Republican conference they said they needed to find another nominee in short notice because the Raisin decided to not run again. That's how [the new candidate-spoilers] was able to wiggle in.

@@jkhcu Yeah but that doesn't mean Raisin was not a Dem. The conference is happening because the next election is coming.

@@kvm6 "The family who lost us a presidency." "With the president out, we need a nominee." - Michelle-Anne, current presidential aide, attending the Republican summit. The Republicans were literally saying they had to pick a new one in a hurry (only six months left before the election) because their previously assumed nominee (the Raisin) is not running. Most importantly, their initial preferred replacement is the current Vice-President, so obviously the President has to be Republican. Also, why would a Democrat President ever give the Roys (especially Logan) and ATN "that kind of access"? Why would Ravenhead be against 'attacking' a Democrat President, citing his audience, when Shiv asked him to? Makes absolutely no sense.

yeah, the "minor neurological thing" really has the sleepy Joe vibes

I think he is explaining it in terms of how Logan thinks about, which is the justifying it in Logan’s mind. Nothing wrong with that. And they become free by being better people by embracing their emotions and not killing them like Logan wants them to do. That’s what he means.
