I would love to see a two-hour special on how Eric got to Pierpoint and show how Eric decided to interview Harper after seeing her application. The special would end with what he really said to his wife in front of Fellum and his wife.
I love this show but is this seriously what it's like in this industry ? Everyone seems like a complete arrogant prick. sorry, but that's just the vibe I get from it, lol
@@greenminer255 damn I agree.. I don't know if I keep watching g because of the aggressive narcissism or the idea of seeing real sales situations on the floor
The reason Harper choose Eric over Daria was because Eric trusted her and she trusted him. Plus he could have ratted her out about school or the trading mess up, but didn't.
Eric saw her ambition as an asset. Daria saw it as a threat. Daria only cared about harpers trauma when it could be leveraged. When told about the sexual assault in the elevator, she brushed it off because she had nothing to gain by disseminating that story. All the characters are grossly narcissistic but I really liked that ending and thought the story was a really interesting take on how capitalistic, self-interested feminism can be as toxic as sexism.
Ken Leung was the best thing about this show! His delivery half the time was so nuanced that I could never tell what the hell the character Eric was really thinking! Totally have a crush on this man now and I can’t wait to see what he does next. He just gets better and better! Thank you for compiling all of his scenes 🥰
If you work in this industry trust me Eric is a dream mentor to have as your MD. He was able to assess the appropriate disciplinary conversation with Harper weighing up the Allerton fuck up against her client service work with the other HNW client. He is never unfair and honestly the idea of his aggressive style being unsuitable for an IB's culture is a bit unrealistic. Characters like Daria never last on the floor. They have an unshakable chip on their shoulder and how she talks to Eric is more inappropriate than anything he ever does.
Also, Daria was a VP while Eric was an MD, so Eric way outranked her. In Season 1 some of the dialogue strongly suggested Daria was not a strong producer while Eric, in spite of losing Felim, had a number of other clients fiercely loyal to him. Yet Eric fell from grace in Season 2 thanks to the idiot global director Bill Adler. Am I the only one who felt Adler consistently came off as a lightweight?
@@protamine4 didn't Eric only fall off because Harper torpedoed his Rican play with Felim? Adler only cared about the bottom line, London wasn't justifying their existence so DVD was sent over. Eric got downplayed so he became a fossil, and then he got back on top with a power play of his own.
@@jordanvanmeter1020question then? Was Daria a snake? I still never understood her character and I attribute to my lack of understanding of this industry.
What you say reminds me of the time when no one thought much of Heath Ledger whereas Daniel Day Lewis, one of the greatest screen actors of all time, spoke out and talked about him like he was a gift from God long before he did The Dark Knight while everyone saw him comically in teen roles and a serious actor only when he did "Brokeback Mountain", before anyone else recognized what he was capable of in "The Dark Knight". Brett Ratner in Rush Hour and X-Men, Edward Norton, showrunners of Lost and Sopranos... they all publicly spoke out, saying Leung blew them out of the water and consider him one of the greatest actors of his generation skillwise, with an intense screen charisma and movie star presence. Norton said he stole the scene in the movie with his one cameo. So a show where he has a main role... oh boy. Just imagine him as a leading man. He could single handedly restore Hollywood to its FULL glory.
@@RH-cl1wn There are a LOT of non-struggling Asian actors and they all seem run-of-the-mill generic to me. Leung is unique and he actually DESERVES a better career. In my opinion, Hollywood as well as Asian American Hollywood probably find him too intense and different. Stars have been made by taking a chance on REAL talent. After a century of that being proven, they still don't understand.
If you listen closely to Felim (client) talking, Eric didn't say anything to the client's wife but instead his own wife...Later in the series, you see Eric and his wife at the Christmas party "jokingly" mocking and insulting one another by saying "cunt" and other slurs. I think during dinner with the client and his wife, they might have mistook those insults during their conversation as being directed at Eric's wife in bad faith when they might have just been kidding around.
I understand what you’re saying, but that kind of language can be pretty off-putting, and I think Eric would do well to cut back on these banters in front of clients. Hopefully, Harper will have pointed this out to him.
No. He probably said something racist. A spouse will generally take one for the team if it is in the interest of making more money however if it is something very socially unacceptable--this transcends financial gain. It is well established that he casually makes sexist remarks so I don't believe it was that. I imagine he said something racist as Felim was threatening to repeat what he said in Harper's presence. One thing is certain: He knows what he said.
@@I_LemaireFelim probably just didn't want to say c*** in front of a young American woman. Although Eric did say a racial slur in front of Harper. The reason it is established that he says sexist things is probably to hint at what he said in front of Felim's wife.
Character actors like Ken Leung are the best types of actors out there, they're not pretentious "high class" celebs doing method. They do the job and they do it amazingly because they do ALL types of roles - they can literally chew out a scene and not make it feel hammy. Tim Blake Nelson also comes to mind for these types of high caliber character actors that should get more work.
I watched this series and couldn’t believe Ken Jueng wasn’t recognized with every award down the line. He just dominated and owned everything. It wasn’t chewing scenery. He was showing the strengths and the fallibilities of the character. It was thrilling to watch.
proud of Ken.., he was my best buddy and best man at my wedding..decades ago..., Happy to see him in a complex , worthy role of his talents...which he kills..

I never understood why Harper even considered Daria to be a replacement for Eric or why Harper didn't like him and simply didn't respect him. She wasn't even supposed to be there, but the guy gave her a shot. Very strange character development for Harper that never made sense to me.
I really wanted to like this show, but it nosed dived fast into nothing of worth to watch. Eric was great, and their relationship was fine until she blew it up for no reason.

They should scrap everything but Eric, and redo the show with him as the main character
@@bobbyaxelrod5959 By no means do you have to agree to this but I think Harper's wavering loyalties came because she's an opportunist, and will happily cross in her path. She liked the trust that came with Eric, but equally had to suck up to Daria who was her manager. When she realised Daria didn't have her back and saw an opportunity to get her old boss in who would owe her one, she took it. She became the essence of the toxic culture.
@@rohanb3599 nailed it. I think she regretted it but she was obviously coerced into pushing Eric out. daria and Sarah gave her no agency and didn’t respect her, when presented with an opportunity to choose between them, she went with Eric which fits with her character
Did he just yell at Greg and give him a compliment. "I know I guy at Fox." Eric is the teacher that you might not always get along with but you will learn something.
Easily best written/acted character in the show. Not blanket good or bad, perfectly nuanced that it keeps the viewers intrigued, really looking forward to season 2. Now, I would argue he should have been sacked for those actions but Harper knows the experience better than anyone and she's right to mention that if someone else was in her shoes, it's really not an obvious right/wrong decision.
It's a bit unfair of a statement to say he's the best written character. Part of his character is that he is so confident and sure of himself most of the show. The show itself centers around young professionals finding their way; like babies stumbling across the floor until they can walk. Even Daria is still trying to figure things out
yo that grad just backstabbed him, can't really believe how she could do that. Y'all saw how she got gutted after Eric left, everyone who was dilly dally with her just put on their other face lol well deserved...
The Character of Harper represents the revolutionarist out of an industry...She is different just like Eric was, before he got corrupted by the toxic culture of Pierpoint...Harper represents progress and reform...and the idea that the World financial markets are not limited only to graduates of Harvard or Eton but that interpersonal relationships and fierce competition is the underlying asset or bar, driving the price action at the floor of the exchange transacting change in price...
When you are really working hard and getting things done you are not listening to other people's soundbites, you fix the screen and you ignore people around you, also, aggressive behaviour costs money because it disrupts trains of thought and significantly slows any task down by destroying concentration. NO ONE is immune to this. Time is money and low concentration time is money lost.
Lol Eric reminds me of some of my former coworkers when he had that exercise band on his chair… one of my former coworkers has one of those pedal thing underneath her desk, another sits on an exercise ball lol… also I can relate. I started from the bottom trying to climb that ladder
I think a lot of comments are aware of the negatives of Eric but some are really glorifying him despite his extremely manipulative behavior. The guy is a horrible person, I think the show did a great job of doing it in a nuanced manner that doesn't make him just blatantly "bad" but giving depth to what grooming actually looks like.
He is not a good manager but he is great at his work. He has the shark dna this companies need the predatory instinct to take any opportunity to make money. He is not more manipulative than other seniors with aspirations and he embodies the real motives of these banks.
yhh. He is so manipulative. I wish we see more of this part in the series. Everybody keeps saying about how harper doesn't deserve to be there and my question is- then why is she? Eric is no philanthropist, why doesn't he fire Harper? He knows he could give Harper things she never asked (extra raise), make her feel special and use "You would not be here if it weren't for me" line to make her his puppet and to be on his side since Daria and the other lady want him gone. He is using her as much as Harper is using him.
All the managers manipulated or controlled for their own agenda. Daria got a secret confession from Harper to get Eric fired and his job and later barely talked to Harper. Harper confessed to her, she got sexually assaulted by a client and Daria didn't care. Also Daris told Robert he was worthless.

The reason Harper choose Eric over Daria was because Eric trusted her and she trusted him. Plus he could have ratted her out about school or the trading mess up, but didn't.

He also got her back when she screwed up

He is using her as much as Harper is using him.
All the managers manipulated or controlled for their own agenda. Daria got a secret confession from Harper to get Eric fired and his job and later barely talked to Harper. Harper confessed to her, she got sexually assaulted by a client and Daria didn't care. Also Daris told Robert he was worthless.
11:30 +/- is the best. And the music that follows.
