Donald Glover is a creative genius. He makes good music, he is a good comedian, he makes good television, and he’s a good actor. Is there anything the man can’t do? Stg if he doesn’t get an EGOT I will riot.

Atlanta’s pilot was so good that when I first saw it.. it was an Ad on KZread! I literally forgot I was watching something else. In fact, I literally forgot what I was doing until the episode was over.. it’s like I was in a trance for the whole show. After it was over I was confused as to how I got there. What I was watching before and how I stopped what I was doing for so long. I was instantly hooked

Teddy Perkins is such a elaborate fever dream and I have more and more questions every time I see it. Love this show

I’m glad that more people are finally starting to talk about this show

we deconstructed this pilot in my screenwriting class when talking about best pilots. we even ranked it high on pilots in the last few decades. most shows give you a mild taste on what the show is going to give you but this really hit the ground running

This show is by far my all time fav the character development the cinematography all come together I could re watch this series forever

the barbershop episode is just so good. from the flylo-thundercat-produced music to the hilarious dragging out of the simple central task of getting a haircut, it's a near perfect episode of a near perfect series.

So glad you made a video about Atlanta! Such an amazing pilot episode, that flows so well into the second episode!

Having season four just wrap up and coming back to watch this, the original pilot where Earn is being questioned by the Dean at Princeton is so shocking…

atlanta is not just any tv show. i think a work of art like this comes along once in a long while. and i believe a huge part of it is creative freedom to its maximum, and of course the genius of donald glover. i mean i liked his acting in community, and then childish gambino, and then this. and did you watch this is america. this man is a legend.

best show of all time.. genius

I miss this show, I need a new season

atlanta is one of those shows that rlly get you feeling every emotion and you feel as if you’re apart of their lives.. donald is truly a talented artist 🙏🏽

this is maybe my favorite show of all time, so glad you did a vid on it!

this is so crazy because i literally just finished watching the show

FINALLY SOMEONE TALKED ABOUT THIS SHOW

atlanta is something so exquisite. donald glover can do it all

god damn now i gotta watch Atlanta

The first season has one of my all time favorite bits from any form of media. The Arizona Tea commercial is just 👌

One of my favorite shows. Can rewatch every episode as if I watched it for the first time.

The cast of this show is impeccable.

That Teddy Perkins episode was something else.

Your insight is UNBELIEVABLE!!!

Love coming back from lunch to another Nerdstalgic banger

Teddy Perkins is probably the best tv episode of all time. Atlanta is so underrated

I've always said that Donald Glover is the most creative man on the planet.

I need more of your thoughts on Atlanta! This was just the chef's kiss of youtube.

What a great great break down

Coming back to this video and learning about the first draft opener, really pieces together season 4 for me.

this was written and said in such an informative & genuine tone. love it

what a brilliant overview w hi level understandings.

Glad that finally nerdstalgic talk about my favourite show

Love this show. I would love to see more videos about it.

When I noticed that the music in the background was the same loop the entire time I couldn't stop noticing it and it's infuriating lol

Phenomenal breakdown Amazing

I got distracted and started thinking about the footprints on the ceiling!!

What's that music? It's so good

the dave duo back at it again

Great video

Can’t wait for season 3. Atlanta is so dope

This show is so casual but interesting I love it

gambino is a mastermind

I’ve been waiting for season 3 its been too long The gun range sense is one of my favorite scenes.

Atlanta episodes feel like a fever dream to me and it’s sooo moving

Dope show love presentation.

i love this show so much one of may favorites

Atlanta’s opening aerial shots I think are a callback to Candyman.

I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again. It takes a great KZreadr to make someone enjoy a video discussing something the viewer knows nothing about. You do just that. I’m definitely checking out this show

This was amazing! Would you do another video on the newest season?

yup, Atlanta was instant love for me

love the video man! something that I really needed right now for inspiration. My only suggestion, maybe you should tone it down with the loop of music? It is a little distracting

Atlanta is a masterpiece

When OJ Da Juiceman started playing in the intro, I knew I was going to be hooked

I still remember watching it on KZread when it premiered Man time flies

I also like how, at least for me, Atlanta reframes clapping for the wrong reasons as a potential/alternate future for ern, one in which he’s achieved all the success he wishes for. (I know the two aren’t connected but I like to look at it this way)

Great video my guy. Just as a suggestion for another possible topic to cover, since Brooklyn 99’s final season is cooking up, I’d love to hear your thoughts on the show. I think it’s of the same creative team (or at least spearheaded by the same guy, Michael Shur) as this that worked on the Office, Parks and Rec and the Good Place. At least I feel it’s really well done with a few elements that irk me but it’s forgiveable.

Nerdstalgic: new video Me: me speak your truth

Thank you.

I like your analyzing on Atlanta. Its one of those shows that you watch more than twice also what song did you use for the video I’m digging it 👏

Would love to see Fleabag analyzed, both the on-stage production and the tv show (especially since Donald Glover and Phoebe Waller Bridge are making a show together around Mr. and Mrs. Smith, after working on Solo together).

I was thinking of this show the other day

Somebody please tell me where nerdstalgic gets his music its always 🔥💯

i love the show and you made a great video out of it, anyway anybody knows that song at the first seconds of the video ? i really love it but i can’t find it

North of the Border is my favorite episode. it's so tightly woven and the climax is great. in terms of FX shows i also reccomend Mr. Inbetween. that's such a great show as well.

0:52 this little clip made me thing of the possibility of having a black and white episode with maaaybe no dialogue for the next season, that would be dope considering how good Hiro Murai and donald are at directing and writing

Glover is very smart and talented. Darius is my fave character.
