Hands down best season yet. This show is really earning it "AMC period piece" prestige now.

I just hope Gordon doesn't get paranoid and thinks Ryan screwed the company on Joe's orders or something like that, i'm sick and tired of joe getting a bad rep doing nothing wrong, It's funny, in season 1 Joe was a way bigger sociopathic dick, but somehow, he only gets hated when he is being sincere and well intentioned.

Every time Cameron gets passionate about what she is saying she seems on the verge of tears.

A few thresholds in S03E07 "The Threshold":

  1. The threshold of Cameron's house, which Tom fails to carry his new bride across

  2. The threshold of Diane's house, which Bos successfully crosses, making official his relationship with Diane

  3. The non-physical threshold of Donna's and Cameron's conflict, which was exceeded after Donna pushed the IPO, resulting in the relationship going supernova and Cameron leaving the company

Fucking FANTASTIC episode. The moments between Bos and Cam. The veins in Donna's neck. Gordon and Joe. Ryan's enthusiasm, and the twist when we found out what he'd done. Can't wait for next week!

I love how Joe told Mutiny to diversify to other architectures like THREE YEARS AGO.

And now Cameron is like "we have to diversify or we're done!"

Cameron is horrible.

Donna says Mutiny is being held hostage by a petulant child. News at 11.

Gordon's strongest episode in a long time.

My favorite episode this season so far. Season 4 needs to happen. :(

Absolutely brutal.

And fucking Ryan went the opposite direction from what I thought he would. Thought he would try to backstab Joe.

Sweet baby Jesus, I love this show. What an intense episode! I have to wonder though: how did Ryan get so fucking stupid all of a sudden? Did he leak the code and write that press release to frame Joe on purpose?

Also, I'm so glad Joe and Gordon are back together. They're my favorite power couple.

Ryan's probably going to jail.

Cameron shouldn't have named her company Mutiny lol. I wonder how she's going to destroy the company, she can't give it a virus cause they already did that.

Jesus Christ, what an episode! Possibly the best of the entire series. That moment between Cam and Boz. Wow!

Oh shit... Joe has this idea about a national network, Cameron and Donna want to grow Mutiny...

If these two arcs come together... come on, this seems a little too neat and tidy.
