Most Evil Guy: A BARRY (HBO) Fancast

The season 3 finale of BARRY rips our hearts out as both we--and Barry--realize that there is no more starting over, "starting now." Sally fights then flights, Hank is visited by his own vengeance panther (real panther included!), and Gene finally shows us why he deserved to have his own acting school. No panthers were harmed in the making of this episode...if only the same could be said for us.

Things get bizarre and offensive in the penultimate episode of Season 3 of BARRY: "candy asses." We discuss the logic of fellating a concrete member to satisfy the urges of a young Medusa out on the town; the loaded usage of the "seaward" amongst and against gals; and Sally's descent into the full dark, no stars. Why didn't Sharon think through her weird revenge plot? Did George Krempf worry he would never live down that embarrassing moment in church? Will Barry die?!

Get ready for a wild ride (upon a motocross bike, perchance) in Season 3, Episode 6 of BARRY: "710N." We spend some time breaking down the Donnie Darko-esque timeline of the Albert-Sharon-Fuches interactions, and ponder the pastry hierarchy that made Mitch a culinary sensation (and a casual therapist/oracle). Two episodes out from the end of the season, it's hard to imagine things getting worse for Barry...I mean, everyone stood him up at Sharon's dinner party! /s

We have one job: it's to pick a Most Evil Guy. Yet we failed to do it again. Why? This episode is a crazytimesh*tshow (that's the name of the episode, we can't cut that!). Season 3, Episode 5 of BARRY gives us a lot to talk about, whether directly (Albert is back...somehow) or indirectly (Rhi builds her Barbie Supreme Court of funny TV ladies). We break down every photo in Barry's creativity collage for Sally, criticize The Algorithm, and encourage Emily Heller to secret-tweet us the mermaid emoji if she can in fact take credit for coming up with "BanShe." If you don't like this episode, then it was a deep fake after all.

Halfway through Season 3 of BARRY, we may have finally found some things to question about the show, and the theme of episode 3.04 is "That's a weird choice." Rhi gets nostalgic for BWW sauce, Jamie Lynn learns that Joe Mantegna is NOT a football player, and we welcome Monica Reyes (not her real name nor her character's name) to the BARRY family. We also discuss Hollywood's beneficent attitude towards those in the industry helping veterans (#stolenvalor).

We're back from our unexpected hiatus (more on that next episode)! Thank you for being a friend.

This bi-week, we tackle Season 3 Episode 3 of BARRY: "ben mendelsohn." Who is Ben Mendelsohn, you ask? Google it like we had to! #deepcut #conspiracy. We discuss faux organic produce, skateboarding in heaven, and how not to be the real you in the wrong way. Plus, we inadvertently promote all things Elijah Wood (Elijah, you are welcome to thank us personally at the email address below).

Season 3 of BARRY keeps the manic ball rolling in Episode 2: "Limonada." Cristobal tries to support his local lemonade stand, Sally orders spaghetti to smooth over her domestic situation, and Gene almost becomes dog food for 40 dogs owned by a (very dumped) lesbian. The magic of BARRY is that it makes us laugh even as it bums the f*&k out of us, and this episode is no exception.

Barry's back, back again for Episode 1 of Season 3: Forgiving Jeff (spoiler alert: you can't forgive Jeff!). We discuss the ongoing significance of yellow flowers, Hank's improv interrogation, and christen Barry's ad hoc graveyard "Desolation Point." Barry starts out the season feeling #unforgiven (excellent use of Metallica btw), but by the end of the episode, learns that forgiveness can--and must--be earned. And he is determined to earn it from Gene.

THE END (of Season Two) HAS COME. In the season finale of BARRY, our titular protagonist blows his New Years resolution to STOP KILLING PEOPLE; Hank finds himself secured in the Chechen crime family (through no effort of his own); Fuches flees for his life; and Gene's world is rocked by the revelation that his protege/adopted son Barry is the person who murdered the love of his life, Detective Janice Moss, LAPD. Sally is doing the best here, and it's only because she has chosen shallow success over artistic honesty.

This season 2 penultimate episode of #BARRYHBO is a doozy, with Naive Barry failing upward (6 feet, 2 inches upward, to be exact); Fuches proving that he still has cards to play; and Sally solidifying her place as Feminist Icon, Sally Reed with a rant that we feel in our bones. And where will the finale find Hank, now that he has lost the loyalty and respect of his henchmen?

Writer Emily Heller knocks it out of the park with Episode 6 of Season 2 of Barry: "The Truth Has a Ring to It." Sally has a personal breakthrough that shines on stage, and Barry and Fuches face off over their own truths. Hope you enjoy! Now we have to go. We are so late for our escape room.

This week, we tackle one of the most high-strangeness, magical realist, avant garde episodes of television (period.) that might just push Bill Hader over the line into "auteur" territory: the fabled fifth episode of Season 2 of BARRY, "Ronny/Lily." Also, Rhi reveals her love of Reel Big Fish and her illustrious childhood martial arts career, and Jamie Lynn compares Barry & Fuches to the Wet Bandits. No cheeks were safe in the making of this episode.

Things get serious in Season 2, Episode 4 of BARRY, leaving us all saying "What?!" (that's the episode title, FYI). Warning: discussions of harassment and intimate partner/domestic violence. Barry confronts Sam, Sam confronts Sally, Sally confronts her truth, and Loach confronts Barry in a wild ending that leaves us wondering what will ultimately happen to Barry now that he is being blackmailed by a vindictive LAPD detective.

Join us as we cackle our way through Episode 3 of Season 2 of BARRY: "Past = Present x Future Over Yesterday" (PEMDAS THAT, bro...). Hank's comedy almost steals the show this week, but Barry's honesty takes center stage as we gear up for what is sure to be an epic takedown of Sam. Plus: listener mail, Jude Law, and some surprising Most Evil Guys.

The cat certainly is in the cradle in Episode 2 of Season 2 of BARRY: The Power of No. (Do you think Eckhart Tolle approved this title?) This week, we have more questions than answers, such as: Where do the episode titles come from? Where did Gene's SECRET SON come from?! What is a Yoshinoya beef bowl? And will Fuches ever stop being our Most Evil Guy? (unlikely, but a girl can dream!)

Happy Holidays from Jamie Lynn & Rhi! Season 2, Epsiode 2 will be in your feed on January 10th. Until then, have a safe and happy holiday season! 

We're back for Season Two of BARRY! Barry Berkman thought he'd be on easy street after Detective Janice Moss was out of the picture, but his lack of basic human empathy gave him a blind spot for predicting Gene's grief. Barry saves the acting class from cancellation, but loses another piece of his soul in the process, like a mediocre horcrux. This week we talk Hank's startup decor, mannequin butts, and...taint rot(!?). Remember to ask your doctor if Ronnie Proxin is right for you!

Then we welcome our Very Special Guest, co-creator/writer/director/wearer of many hats, Mr. Alec Berg, to talk about his veteran research reading/viewing list and why he trusts Anthony Carrigan to pick out his own shirts.

The bummer train pulls into the station as we say R.I.P. to Detective Janice Moss, LAPD in Season 1, Episode 8 of BARRY. Barry's happily-ever-after is anything but; a house of cards built on a pile of bodies. We discuss the season finale, our excitement for more Hank in Season 2, and the "comedy" of The Front Page. Will Barry Berkman ever get his fresh start?
