Watched the #Barry season finale last night. Bill Hader’s transition from side-splitting comedy to powerful drama is right up there with Bob Odenkirk’s.
Season 3 was a little hit-and-miss for me, mainly because of the episodes where Barry Berkman was too cartoonishly crazy. To me, the series is strongest when Barry is most grounded in reality & all of the crazy shit is going on around him.

Yes, Barry is very disturbed, maybe even broken. But the show is best when his attitude is “I don’t want to be doing this, but it’s the only thing I’m good at”

Maybe it’s a stretch to call BARRY a “comedy”. But Barry trying to comfort Sally with his deranged psyop suggestions (“Maybe I could break into her house, watch her while she sleeps & rearrange the furniture…?”) was the funniest thing I’ve seen on TV in years.
