The Remy character is scripted. Remy is a gifted actor and his mom is an actor too. There are subtle clues. Remy's father is always discussed in vague terms; being gone, being absent? being dead? No clarification, why? Remy's ability to act is reinforced by his adoption of the Dr Fart character, again a scripted construction. Also Remy's quick turn around of his his obsession with being Nathan's son, to Nathan's friend.

The first episode made me laugh harder than I have in a long time. The sheer amount of attention to detail, actors, planning, building an entire set of a bar in a warehouse, just so that someone could play out a trivial social situation. And how meta it got with Nathan practicing the rehearsal of his rehearsal, and not even he could stomach telling the truth that he planted the trivia answers, for fear of rejection. The same thing he just did to help the guy overcome his fear and he couldn't overcome it himself. One of the funniest things I've ever seen.

That reading into the Maccabee allegory is brilliant I can't believe I didn't catch that. Learning about Judaism in secret out of fear of persecution. Incredible stuff.

Basically Synecdoche New York

Nathan’s (the character) desires to fully understand another person and hopes that if he focuses on a small enough of a moment, perfectly recreate it, then he can finally he see from their eyes. With this setup, it’s not clear if The Rehearsal is a satire of acting and art, or if it’s genuinely the story of a man obsessed with how other people see the world and most critically, him. While I do think it’s definitely satirical, personally I think Nathan (the creator) genuinely wants to be lost in his own existential creation to find pure empathy, therefore validating the endeavor. However no matter how much he tries to copy someone’s life he realizes he can’t perfectly understand someone else since there is simply too much to recreate. My interpretation of the ending is Nathan realizing that his path forward to understand someone else isn’t to simply copy their life, but allow deviations for the reenactment (“No I’m your Dad”) that breakdown barriers. So while he won’t see exactly the world from their eyes, he can finally escape into his own creation and see something new. Which is actually what he wanted.

Stop bro. You think you're getting this on another level than anyone else, you're like the clueless idiots he makes fun of.

Although inception was used as some point of reference. Its a lot more likely that Charlie Kaufman's Synecdoche New York is likely to be a much larger inspiration for the show as it follows the themes and setting much more closely. Espacially when Nathan is recreating the scenes he experienced with actors while he's playing someone else. its directly from that movie.

Why the buttcrack in the very last scene of the last episode as Nathan stands up?!? That’s the only reason I watched this video and and no one is speculating on it. Nathan is SOO detail oriented and notices every tiny thing that there is NO WAY that having buttcrack visible in the last scene wasn’t intentional. Was it signifying him becoming a dad?

Thank you David, hope it was worth the wait!!

For me, I thought he just 'got it', like (in character) it was the first time he seemed fully immersed in the pretend scenario. Every other time he did a rehearsal or role play, he had some anxiety or questioned some element of it, but this was the first time he fully got into character and seemed happy that he finally was able to rehearse something and be totally lost in character.

Very insightful thank you for this it helped me better understand nathan as a person and as an actor

But you didn't analyze the parting butt shot? What was that supposed to signify?

I watched the entire rehersal on mushrooms, the fielder method episode broke my brain

I thought the show took an extremely dark turn where Nathan developed an identity crisis and started believing the rehearsal was in fact real due to doing it for so long and genuinely went insane

i hope a lot of people are able to look past the absurd comedy (which is amazing) to really see the show for what it is -- a complete and unflinching look at the human condition -- our search for meaning, love, family, failure, and success. Nathan manages to wrap all of this up in a very chaotic but masterful bow. It is one man's search for connection, and his contemplation of how to fail and be messy but love and be a father. It's such a breathtaking work of art.

Its like seeing Isaac from The Orville, trying to experiencing humans emotions and feelings (without having any) pretty good. And its like we Data Analysts call Machine Learning.

AGREED!

It's meta AF. It's also an actor's dream.

my take on this is a self-depricating comedy - Nathan trying to "help" people in things he knows nothing about, and to no one's surprise, not actually helping. except now he has a huge production budget and a team of writers. it's genius.

So let me get this straight, in a show, who's entire premise is that whatever the host says is a lie, said host says his favorite movie is Inception and you believe it?

The way I view Nathan’s shows and The Rehersal is that Nathan and his cast are all entirely in on the comedic aspect of the shows. It’s basically all for show and Nathan is just extremely good at acting and making it seem real for him. He’s the only one truly acting and if you spoke to him on the street he wouldn’t be as awkward as he is on screen. The lengths they go to for comedy is actually inspiring and I love it. Nathan is a genius

u got a voice for one of those list videos

Eu sou fã do Nathan desde Nathan For You e com O Ensaio acho que ele vai ficar mais conhecido no mundo não somente no Canadá e nos EUA

I think thr show is trying to say how blurry our understanding of fake vs real. If we get real emotions out of fake interactions does it really matter if it was fake?

Oh my gosh, I came here to say the same thing about Inception! Going back and watching NFY after Rehearsal, the context of Rehearsal shifts. Seems like this statement was the inspiration or hint about TR. Wonder how much release will be affected by the strike.

Ok wow before watching this I did not even think about how by the end of the series Nathan views his assumed role as the fake Remy's dad the same way that the real Remy viewed Nathan as his father. Nathan convinces himself he is really Remy's dad the same way Remy believed Nathan was his dad.

I’m a bit lost on what the objective of the show is. Is this a reality show that explores the anxieties of different people every episode… while also serving as an extrospection of Nathan’s own? What season ending outcome does the show aim to make?

10:06 This scene broke me. I didn't know what to think.

Synecdoche New York anyone? Damn this show was crazy good.

Nathan is in the rehearsal himself, a lonely, awkward, and A-typical man trying to guide others towards something he could never have. Nathan tries to control every facet of other peoples lives, and in the end his own, because he feels like he has no control. This is all about Nathan the character, as he’s portrayed in Nathan For You and The Rehearsal, not necessarily the real person but it wouldn’t the first time Nathan had weaved in real life events, like his divorce, into the story of the character Nathan.

What was the meaning of the butt crack?! Lol

I just want to know what about Remy is real

Fake Remy was such a talented little actor. The way the kid responds when Nathan makes sure that he knows he's not his real dad! And then Nathan asks "Do you think I'm believable as a dad?" he answers, with the most serene and mature look in the eyes, "I mean, you're a great scene partner" 😂

I'm just glad Nathan is getting his props.

perai, entao quer dizer que tinha pessoas reais ali?? eu achei que era tudo encenaçao. mds, preciso rever

It seemed like all of the characters in the show had trouble accepting reality evidenced by their apparently unbounded mystical views and/or their desire to participate in a show like this. I saw the show as an examination of human nature in the modern world and less about "over thinking", as it displayed how concerned people are about revealing their true and natural selves. The characters chose instead to hide behind superstition and vaguery in their communication and appeared to want to script their own reality in hopes of manufacturing a desirable outcome or at least one in which lets them feel accepted by those around them. The show may be attempting to point out how fearful or beaten down some people feel and the struggles people have in dealing with those feelings.

I think that during rehearsing covid we learned that common cold can be delt with without rehearsal.

She was never rude and allowed Nathan to change things up she hadn’t agreed to. You may disagree with her convictions and beliefs but she isn’t lying or manipulative like Nathan. Also the show is heavily edited to put ppl in boxes. Your strong reaction to her says more about you than of her as a “character” One of the messages of the show is to put yourself in other ppls shoes. Even if you disagree with her worldview, most likely similar emotions would have appeared but the responses would have manifested differently for you. Nathan even validates her character arc by apologizing. The entire concept is absurd on purpose and goes off the rails. But aside from master puppeteer Nathan and his umpa lumpa crew, everyone is trying their best. Some are motivated by the allure of fame or love of acting. So in short. No. Wrong. Dunce.

At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

No my dude, you are wrong. You got a few things right but missed A LOT of the true message of this master piece. Here's a small list of things you missed or missinterpreted among all the wrong things you took out: -The part where he is seeing the real house of Remy is an acknowledgement on how reaility is extremely more complex than the ideas we make of it in our minds. Anxiety again, having imaginations based on fear about the past and the future are extremely lacking compared to real life, and yet people with anxiety can't stop themselves from believing that what they think about reality is the truest truth of the universe when it is most definitely not. -You are wrong about calling it "a waste of HBO money" or when saying that Nathan's methods are not worth it. They are EXTREMELY worth it, because through those methods he reached enlightment, it was his therapy. He reached a conclusion that he couldn't have gotten without doing the rehearsal. And of course, in real real life (first time I have to clarify it like this in my life) we all know Nathan is an entertainer and he is doing the show acting as if he didn't know things that he already knows. BUT that creates therapy for people that are like the way he represented himself in the piece, is art that can help others with similar situations, watching themselves in others. The rehearsal Is like anxiety medicine. It might work for some and that's NOT worthless or a waste of money. That's art, is sublimation, trauma beautified or materialized. -And the smallest microscopic detail that you and apparently most people that watched the show missed but that is EXTREMELY important to understand the entire show is that in an episode where Nathan had to take care of the baby while Angela went on her date he said "I had to take care of myself" refering to the baby as himself. The smallest detail and yet the most important of it all. The show was entirely about him. He was the kid. It was all about him even when he said it was all about Angela. Also Angela is no angel (got it, Angel, Angela, Christianism, ok ok). She is wrong in a way that millions are wrong, just like the jew teacher is wrong and like Remy's mom is wrong, they convince themselves, like Nathan said, of a truth without knowing, they simply fall into their beliefs, sucumb to them and use them as blueprint of the universe when the real universe is more complex and vast than what any simple puny human could think of it. Instead of admiting they don't know, that they are grown up babies in a dark void of nothingness scared of oblivion they end up making up fantasies to deal with the horror and of course those fantasies collide sometimes and make things more messy than they should be. I'll end it here. To understand the rehearsal a big amount of philosophy, psychology, art, comedy and logic in general needs to be had. It has so many hillarious moments and some very deep. It is like an onion, needs to be revisited when more knowledge is adquired.
