Eastsiders Season 4

[+ E.T.Bass]

S1, 2 and 3 are on Netflix. Worth it.

Constance Wu and Traci Lords in S1 and S2 were great.

I donated to S4. Looking forward to it.

The writing in S3 was awesome. I hope they can do that again.

There is more of the Cal/Thom story in S4, but not enough. The two other couples aren't quite as interesting. Van Hansis really brings it.

 

S4 is heavy on the drag genre. Sometimes less is more.

 

They figured out a new path for Ian. Like the drag element, less would have been more. It got confusing.

The last epi felt like Looking the movie.

 

The Cal/Thom drama of S3 remains my favorite. I'll watch S3 again.

I may have to respectfully disagree with you @E.T.Bass. I dropped in on a friend watching episodes from S4. Interesting I thought. At home I started with S1. I’m 7 or 8 episodes in and finding it difficult to relate to these guys vacuous antics. The eye candy is somewhat compelling but so is porn. But I’ll plug on with dimmed expectations.

The addiction themes and relationship themes seem authentic to me. The writing has its moments. But yeah, I can see how it would come across as vacuous, the drinking, pot smoking, promiscuity and so on.
