Featured review
One of the best season finale episode endings
After the bad press conjured from their outlandish S-1 proposal, Wall Street Journal decide to run an article on the corroding empire. In this damning report they mention the partying and illicit activities at the headquarters, with a cereal box containing a brick of weed grabbing the headlines. WeWork hire a Crisis PR team to deflect this onslaught of negativity before the business goes public. Meanwhile, the Board vote to kick Adam out as CEO. With episode eight, the show has thankfully returned to its peak quality, with an enthralling start. The opening scenes are fun and fast-paced, backed with an orchestral version of Katy Perry's Roar. Feeling paranoid and penned in, Adam decides to move his personal offices into the sanctuary of their private home. This setup provides some welcomed comedy, with the gang trudging their whiteboard on wheels through the busy city, Rebekah trialing a vulgar looking green juice (is this a nod to The Dropout?) and then panic cleaning the house. An enraged Adam finally falters and makes some rather big changes to the company, yet his negotiations are futile. Bruce Dunlevie, who was once Adam's greatest supporter, calls the founder toxic and threatens to break his arm if he doesn't resign, ouch! Then photographs of Adam walking barefoot in New York go viral and he admits defeat. The creators highlighted the ridiculous nature of big business in an entertaining way, managing to succeed in a zeitgeist genre, which is commendable.
