The most interesting thing is that this really was Bruce helping her out, not just for her experience, but also in the moment. His throwing objects was clearly appreciated by her, and it was adorable and sweet as well as hilarious
I was just about to say. I am studying theater in school and this is surprisingly a great method of easing tension when performers do monologues. I think this wouldn’t have worked if it wasn’t Lenny. When doing a monologue, and your best friend is in front of you trying to make you laugh the tightness in your whole body just ceases. If it was a stranger, it just be outright rude. I think this is not only relatable but funny because it’s reminiscent of the best friend that will always have your back even when they are messing with you.
I grew up hearing of Lenny Bruce and am pretty familiar with the tragedy of his life, as well as how he REALLY looked...even still, I'm not mad at TMMM for giving us such a sanitized, romanticized version of Bruce on the show with someone as handsome as Luke Kirby...the camera LOVES that face, indeed.
Tf are you talking about Luke Kirby looks like he could have been his brother, and anyways his daughter gave permission to involve him in a romantic relationship with Midge
One of the best things about these two is that they combine a lot of relationships. Siblings, parent and child, best friends, coworkers, boyfriend/girlfriend, and lovers later on ;). I think this scene shows hints of all of them, when he's telling her his story she has that proud but patient mom look, when he starts throwing things at her that's a brother sister "going to kill you later, who me"? silent conversation, when she tells him to go away because he'll make her nervous and he's got that funny smirk, I can't tell if that's friends or boyfriend/girlfriend.
Brotherly/sisterly crap shouldn’t be involved in a dynamic between two love interests. Best friends/friends in general do the same thing you’re describing in the “sibling” part
I love this so much! I also find it quite interesting that she was never nervous for him to see her set before, even begged to know what he thought of it; but the first time they see each other since Miami he would be a distraction and make her nervous... 🥰
@@krisynthiagomez5883 Yeah, that's absolutely a possibility but given how important Lenny's role has been this season part of me is hoping they are just going to leave things on a happier note, even slightly open-ended. On the other hand there is every chance they did this to make the pain even more excruciating if they do end up dealing with his loss. I just know Luke Kirby would absolutely knock it out of the park, just not sure I'm emotionally prepared to witness it.
LENNY!!! I love LUKE KIRBY! He is the best part of this show. But NO he and Midge should not hook up! That would be dumb. But we SHOULD see his dark side and his demons should be written in...... And Joel and Midge belong together. He LOVES her!
@@courtneyawalsh Joel cheated because he had low self esteem. He hated being the man that he thought she needed and his parents wanted him to be..... The upper west side button down business man..... Everything he is doing right now is to make himself a better person, for her. Even if he is unaware of it. And he is FIERCELY protective of her. It is adorable how he acts when he thinks someone might hurt her. I love it! And he wont act that way over Mei. She is tough as nails anyway and does not really need him. Which is why they will end up breaking up. Not to mention, she is not comfortable with him being Jewish and her being Chinese. It is the early 60's after all. Ben was awesome... Yes... Midge blew it there. But Lenny... NO WAY. People need to get over that. DUMB IDEA!
The way he looks at her...I die.

@@cozymosss tbh the implication that the real Lenny Bruce wasn't hot? Who were they looking at???
"Don't smile. Bad smile." I- AHHHHHH
The chemistry 🔥🔥

0:24 “I thought I’d recognize that unique combination of lilting intensity!” 4:48 “That chemistry!”
4:43 there is no way he's not thinking 'I'm in love with this woman'
Agreed. That’s why he keeps throwing things at her.
Right
I love this so much! I also find it quite interesting that she was never nervous for him to see her set before, even begged to know what he thought of it; but the first time they see each other since Miami he would be a distraction and make her nervous... 🥰
I just want these two together so bad
Me too
If we look up Lenny Bruce's lief story though we can guess how it'd end if they did end up together.
his hands movements, i might die.
I graduated Mepham in 83…the name is pronounced MEP-ham. Otherwise this made my day. Thank you.
So hot that the chemistry between them. So sad that it cannot go much further. Maybe one more season? She already saw the poison.
There's only going to be 1 more season. There's a chance we won't get to Lenny's death.
We might get a flash forward after his death in which case that's going to kill, so cheers!

Thank you for uploading this! Could you upload all their scenes from this season so far by any chance?
Of course. They don't have much anyway...
@@adreon LOL YUP
I wanted him to say to her "strip" when he was throwing coins at her 😅
If it's not too much to ask, could you please upload their date from ep5 of s3??
i did but got copyrighted. gonna try splitting parts.
😍😍😍
It’s pronounced mepam not mefam
let he who is without sin cast the first eraser, and the next one
I should write for this show

Joel cheated. Benjamin was better. Lenny would constantly undermine her and pretend it’s mentoring.
