Holy crap its you! Love your work

[@MauricePKerry]

@xylia2 It is! Than you so much for watching 🫡.

[@Shewent2008Jared]

LOL word!!!

[@LouMurk]

Im telling you, in 5 to 10 years its gonna be a cult classic. I already see clips of the show go mega viral on Tiktok and all the comments being "What show is this". I can't wait for ppl to experience what we've experienced over the past 5 years with this show. Idk what it is about Donald Glovers work being slow burners (much like Community now having a big reemergence cause of streaming) but ppl will catch on.

[@pimpbisquick7036]

​@@halo12345678fulcno. This show is better than that.

[@mattneff]

This should have been the series finale. The last 4 episodes focused on giving us an individual farewell to each main character (Earn, Alfred, and Darius). This episode was a farewell to Atlanta, both the city and the world of the show. Imagine the last words of the show being, "He made the blackest movie ever!"

[@NineNerdYards]

I was thinking the same thing but I can imagine the fan backlash if it didn’t end with the main 4

[@adambyrom7486]

At the same time though, I wasn’t mad about seeing the OG’s one more time

[@ChezzaOuttaNowhere]

Damn…when i rewatch, I’m gonna watch with this as the finale.

[@pepesilvia429]

I think It Was All A Dream was a perfect finale, I prefer this episode but the actual finale leaves a better impression when you're done, it makes me want to watch the whole show again

[@MikeMohamed]

I started crying watching this episode of Atlanta. I had just rewatched Goofy Movie for the first time in decades with my girlfriend, after I watched it, I ended up calling my dad for the first time in years. It's hard to explain, but my father really is a goof too. I spent much of my life angry at him, but the film helped me understand his perspective, and forgive him for his faults. A Goofy Movie is an entirely different ride as an adult. This episode just cuts so deep to the core of what makes the Goofy movie one of the greatest father/son films ever. And of course, the blackest movie ever made 🥲 Donald Glover makes the hardest hitting shit. Period.

[@NineNerdYards]

Amazing. Never underestimate the influence/power of a well told story!

[@Tricey.89]

❤❤❤❤I’m sure you reaching out to him meant the world

[@BIGBABYHAIR]

That's so heartwarming and amazing 😭

[@monzorella1]

I love this 🥰

[@emanhitemup]

The Goof who sat by the door, Teddy Perkins, B.A.N. are the three must watch Atlanta episodes💯

[@Desnes7]

Teddy Perkins is my favorite

[@bobafett4457]

B.A.N. is an all time great comedy episode, up there with the best of the best of Seinfeld or Community.

Damn I was NOT expecting an hour long video essay but that's the only way to cover this masterpiece

[@chelseabondzanga5922]

Genuinely, this show has changed the trajectory of my life. My writing will forever be influenced by this show.

[@itstheverve]

that's really cool

[@paisan8766]

Pretty dope to basically see the “Black nerd”/“Black creative” properly honored during this BHM. Love Atlanta, this episode, & this channel.

[@SofaKingOverThisIsh]

This is such a hard show to recommend. I've tried and failed many times to get others into it, but the obscure nature and surrealness are too much for most people to absorb and appreciate. It's like trying to convince others to listen to your favorite artist, when the music just found you at the right time. I think that is how Atlanta hits.. you have to see it at the right time in your life to understand or better yet, absorb it's power. Like looking through a telescope at the right angle at the right time, just to catch the right celestial body. It's objectively beautiful, but you cannot always see it

[@b_cuziwant2]

Very well stated 💯 We’re very lucky to have hit the proper angle to appreciate such mastery. Atlanta is certainly a celestial body of work!

[@realamericannegro977]

Its like living in Atlanta for real. There is a reason why there are so many memes saying it's not a real place. They did a great job of not focusing on all the g*y stuff otherwise the show would be unwatchable for sane people.

[@ThugDrina]

Lmao bruh the shoe and glove being marked evidence at the lake took me out. Atlanta is gold

[@realamericannegro977]

😂😂😂😂 me too. I had to come here to see what was actually real after my google search

[@ChezzaOuttaNowhere]

If i was recommending to a family member i would choose the 🐊 man episode. It felt like home. I could smell his uncles house. The conversation in that episode is so real.

[@NineNerdYards]

Good choice. Lmao at smelling the house 👃🏾😂

[@ChezzaOuttaNowhere]

@@NineNerdYards you KNOW that bathroom smelled like old bits of irish spring bar soap and the house smelled like old carpet, bad plumbing and cigarettes. That is every southern black person's grannies house after the worst uncle inherited it. My dad was the worst uncle that inherited it lol.

[@spammyaccount596]

You’re so right 😂

[@Marche11]

Every person I put on to Atlanta all reacted the same way. They’d be like Wtf is this and then when they really paid attention they loved it😂I’ve rewatched season 1 & 2 so many times it’s etched into my brain.

[@MaRa-xb4kv]

This video is just peak... everything. Thank you so so much, you make Atlanta so much more rewarding to watch and for someone who doesn't live in the US and doesn't experience racism, it helps me understand Atlanta on a deeper level. In the beginning you were talking about Atlanta being un-pitch-able. I feel like this video would be a great pitch. Maybe kind of spoiler heavy, but this video is 100% of what Atlanta is about

[@b_cuziwant2]

So great that you can say Atlanta helps you understand racism on a deeper level. The educational value of this show, in all of it’s splendor, is what I have always enjoyed the most. As a Black Man in America, I can tell you that I truly appreciate Donald and the unparalleled team that created this masterpiece. It’s therapeutic to have the mental warfare of Black Men and people illustrated in such a beautifully poetic manner. But, it’s also extremely rewarding to know that someone like yourself can digest this content and not only be entertained, but also educated. Thank you and thanks Atlanta!

[@FilmAgeStudios]

Those sleepless nights paid off man stellar job 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@NineNerdYards]

Thanks for the help!

[@Wulffie86]

I love the Twin Peaks comparison! The show is a masterpiece. It’s a damn shame the final season wasn’t up for any awards this year.

[@JurassicLion2049]

Watched the whole thing last night before bed and processed everything. This review felt more than a review. Almost like a psuedo documentary regarding the show Atlanta itself. Whether its popular or mainstream or not, I will forever know it as excellent art and the best at what it did. And The Goof Who Sat By The Door is an excellent showcase of Atlanta’s humor, craziness, and on point commentary. Also, that point about how this episode better showcases what Earn was trying to do in Episode 7 makes so much sense. The camping trip was Earn trying to have his own Goofy Movie reconciliation with his family. And while life isnt a fairy tale he does succeed and gets that fairy tale ending with his family. Maybe Earn watched the documentary in universe and then he took Van and Lottie with him to the lake. Also thats a smart catch on him basically getting over the fear of water. Didnt notice that on first viewing. The white rice joke and Goofy laugh still has me in stitches 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@NineNerdYards]

Maaaaaaaan. Thank you! 🙌🏾

[@censored817]

The show is for thinkers I think lol and alot of people don't like doing that they'll catch on later for the surface level humor.... And I would definitely show people the invisible car episode first 🤣

[@khaldub]

This being the first episode you'd show someone is an interesting take. I always described this as the culmination of what Atlanta had been working towards all along.

[@kenya1326]

I'm so happy you addressed Earn's nightmares. As always, great breakdown of the episode!

[@agbad5055]

KZbin dropped me my recommended feed after all my unfruitful searches for Atlanta analysis and your channel came up. Donated to the Clubhouse charity you're running since I rarely see fellow Zimbos around so that's doubly awesome. Keep up the great work man.

[@thierrykayitana7255]

This show was meant to live in this parallel world of viral sensational shows. I’m glad that it ended without notice. Because art pieces are not for everyone.

[@javiponce9338]

You hit the nail on the head. I have tried to get family and friends into it and have failed time and time again. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. Keep up the content 👌

[@mikeh5633]

It's funny because this is just so happened to be the first episode and I showed my sister and she hated me and the show after she found out it was some dumb parody

[@PGCDs]

Incredible work (per usual). I’d specifically like to point out your care for each individual video. There is a trend of artists releasing TV related content as soon as the episode they’re talking about is out, making reviews/analysis fell almost like a reaction (given there isn’t enough time for creators to really do research and decipher them). Your videos aren’t about the audience’s timing, but yours… which engrosses me in what you have to say and assuages the fear of an uninformed narrator (which, with a show as cryptic and open-ended as Atlanta, is essential).

[@NineNerdYards]

I really appreciate that. I really wanted to take my time with this one. The next one will definitely be out a lot quicker.

[@garrettgrier8390]

The problem that I think Atlanta has with getting someone to watch it it takes a certain level of intellect to understand

[@yusukeniggameshi9975]

Yeah nd no, I don't wanna disrespect anyone's intelligence but I'm starting to think you might be right. I just really sometimes try to keep hope for them I guess.

If Danny Glover, comming from a rich family was the diversity hire on NBC, god helps us all. Clearly the man is a genius, and he still needed that to get hired.

[@alambster]

Loved this show even the episodes without any of the main characters. Not sure I can fully explain why I liked it so much. It was so entertaining and sly. Need to watch it all over again.

[@Khatrus]

My nigga, you're doing a great fucking job whit those breakdowns, i've seen this show a thousand times, and im still trynna catch a few ester eggs, but i'm from Brazil and even though i do know a lot, i don't know all of Black American History, so it's hard to make the connections on some shit like this one, thanks for this, fr fr.

Great work brother. I couldn't believe how many of my friends thought this episode was entirely real history. I'm so sad this show ended, but it sure was fun (especially for us here in Atl).

[@jbstuff4472]

33:29 I think the Harrison Ford reference was there as a nod to Glover playing in Han Solo

[@turoymoi47]

BRO, I came by yesterday on your channel to check if you finally had posted something and found nothing. I was like: "…it’s alright… take your time. I understand" cause that must be the hardest episode to tackle, ever. And you did it. Thank you for the hard work. Thank you for organizing all these thoughts I have but hardly can express without having a seizure. Your work is very very appreciated.

[@NineNerdYards]

Lmao this episode was seizure enduring Forsure

[@Diegoxo9]

I’d choose the Teddy episode where Darius tries to get the Piano that’s my essential go to.

[@monzorella1]

I loved this episode because The Goofy Movie is one of my favourite movies. Even though we didn't have much growing up, my mum always made an effort to get us things she never had when she was a child as her family was poor like so many Carribbean families in the UK 🇬🇧 during 50s, 60s and 70s. So my mum always got my sister and I Disney movies when she could and one of them was The Goofy Movie. We loved the music and song because it was apart of the black culture (but as a kid you don't always recognise that )and we watched it so much that we memorized whole sections of the movie and now in our 30s we still recite the movies and laugh 🥰

[@peachcola2]

No matter who it is I always show them Teddy Perkins to introduce them to Atlanta

[@watwatwatwat]

Man this video is your Magnum Opus! What I love about this episode is how the show crafted an alternative history of A Goofy Movie that felt very real. It used the power of interpretation (The Death of the Author) to highlight and reclaim the blackness of the cultural phenomenon that was A Goofy Movie, which was made by mostly white people. In a way, this also felt like a nod to people doing fan theories and interpretations of Atlanta itself.

[@andrewumana9586]
