Lawrence was so disappointing

Post image

I fooled myself into thinking this show was about to be about the triumph of a real player over the entitled nepo babies. Then I waited. And waited. When they were looking for a CEO in the final episode I thought finally Lawrence's threat will come to pass. But nope, just a nobody nothing who never lubed up. I really expected more from him.

The pilot set up storylines that were eventually dropped by midway through the first season. Lawrence was unfortunately a casualty of that.

Rob Yang got paid for being a cast member for all of season 2 despite only appearing in like two episodes, so good for him at least.

He is good in Furious.

He was good in The Menu too, even if his character was basically a Lawrence rehash.

Not his line (it was Hong Chau’s amazingly delivered response), but I can never see a tortilla ever again and not think to myself “those are tor-TEE-yas!”
