Rooster Recap: Brilliant People
"Greg not only has his seminar, but he's now reveling in his position as the capable and kind hockey coach, leading an underdog team to victory, and he also has his pseudo-son Tommy to think about."
"There doesn't seem to be any actual interpersonal connection between Archie and either of the two women, and I was very much looking forward to both women leaving him entirely."
"In this episode, Phil Dunster gets to show off his comedic chops in several scenes, and for that, I am grateful."
"He's been chugging cans of Celsius so he can meet his deadline, and when presented with the reality of his situation, it becomes clear how frantic he has become."
Greg's departure from Ludlow is a false narrative as he remains committed to his seminar, coaching, and his relationship with Tommy. The episode focuses on the love triangle involving Katie, Archie, and Sunny, which lacks genuine chemistry. Despite the storyline's shortcomings, Archie displays endearing qualities, particularly through comedic moments. His struggle to complete his book leads to class cancellations, revealing his reliance on energy drinks to meet deadlines, showcasing his frantic state.
