Current Events > Watching The Young Pope.

(+) Yeah! (+)

First eight minutes is this surreal arthouse stuff seemingly about the mental condition of someone elected to such a position. Then he says we've forgotten to masturbate and it turns into a slapstick comedy of the cardinals fainting and panicking Catholics crying for help in italian.

Definitely a very up and down series.

So far seems like all Lenny truly cares about is fucking with Bellolo. You could edit it this show to be a sitcom if you really tried.

I'm really enjoying it so far though.

This dude's fit is on point

So that was... a scene? Sister Mary follows Bellolo through the darkness and it's shot like he's having an affair or something but it turns out he's keeping a physically disabled child company. I don't think your espionage will be so easy, Mary. Also, who lights a cigarette while they're shrouded in dark spying on someone?

This sounds like it would be a weeknight comedy. Like some regular high school kid becomes the pope somehow but he still needs to finish school so he has to commit to both.

The pope just asked the head of the clergy if "he was a homosexual". After a long shameful pause the clergyman says "yes," and then with a straight silent face the pope slowly but obviously reaches under his desk that buzzes an assistant who's supposed to come in and get the pope out of any meeting. She comes in and says "Your Holiness it is time for your snack," and he breaks out laughing and says "my snack?" And starts pretending like it's an innuendo and says "I have to go have my snack now" and excuses himself. That's the whole scene.

a rough first speech

"God forgive me for everything I will have to do to save the church"

Careful Vellolo, according to Dante you can't repent in advance
