I quite like Erika and Michael in The Leftovers.

John is an absolute cunt though and I want him to die.

Any character based Denzel plays.

He would've been a better Luthor than Lexenberg

he's a generic quirky black guy made to be overtly likeable.

I thought Key and Peele were pretty good in the first season of Fargo.

Kind of wish they had had more screentime desu. That last little "Is this a dream?" moment was really well done though.

>he's a generic quirky black guy made to be overtly likeable.

Thats a pretty good explanation and I agree with you now.

Like all white actors since 1980 then?

>>63285762
>he's just like omar

he's just some inner city thug putting on airs pretending he's way more sophisticated and suave and collected than he really is. He's basically a wolf in sheeps clothing, pretending to be something he obviously isn't, which should have been apparent in the scenes where he drops his schtick and throws a growl at Lou and the scene where his boss shits on him over the phone.

All the shit you guys are bitching about, the monologues, the "intelligence", it's all just a fucking act this guy puts on to seem better or different from what he actually is.
>>
>>63285694
why?
are you a kucked?
or nigger?
>>
>>63285895
so
like any cool character only it's a meme to you because he's black, and to your mind black characters shouldn't be able to use existing archetypes, and instead should stick to their own selection of approved black character types?
>>
>>63285785
is that a Denzel Washington clone?
>>

>is that a Denzel Washington clone?

He's the president of the United States.

Also an insurance guy
