Colman Domingo praised for Euphoria season 3 finale
Colman Domingo delivered a scene-stealing turn in the Euphoria season 3 finale, prompting critics to call for awards recognition. Reviewers specifically praised Domingo's raw emotional delivery and commanding presence opposite Zendaya and the ensemble during the finale's climactic sequence. That performance gives the finale a clear emotional center and reshapes awards conversations by spotlighting supporting talent.
Truly can't believe just how much talent on Euphoria is wasted by Sam Levinson being one of the worst writers on TV. From the cinematography to legendary performances by Zendaya, Colman Domingo, and many others. All wasted on a story that sought shock value above anything actually meaningful.
Alejandra Caraballo203I'm also so pissed at what a dumb pointless storyline they gave to Hunter Schafer. She just sat in her sugar daddy's penthouse and painted the whole time. They could've removed her from the entire story and nothing would've changed.
Jackson27My hot take is the show has always sucked (despite the good performances and decent portrayals of queer characters) and the very concept was written with one hand. Not interested in the sex life of teenagers. The fact that Drake is an executive producer says it all.
Just Melodie6All of his instincts as a storyteller are somehow simultaneously really basic and over the top.
LC Laughland5I feel like the cast was tricked into it with season 1. They were clearly pitched a completely different show.
Timpanogos Slim4I haven't watched any of it because Sweeney is a gross person.
piercingosprey.bsky.social3I mean its not like euphoria was ever thought provoking cinema, but definitely agree the story is no different if Jules isn't even in this season at all. At least she got a bag for pretending to paint a few times.
Jim Mason2The worst of it for me was the final episode and the corny embrace of “faith”, the creepy cult of Christians living in the desert as saviors. Made me regret ever watching any of it. Fuck religion as anything but brainwashing.
Cuddle Bear2The final 45 minutes is Sam Levinson doing the crow. It was a spectacle of questionable choices.
mkinva.bsky.social2Isn’t that true of everything made for streaming lately? Horrendous scripts. Dead end characters. More filler content than story. Everything Taylor Sheridan produces.
Tier2Wasn't one of the most recent episodes received as the worst in the whole series?
hauz20.bsky.social2Super happy I was completely turned off by what seemed to be nothing but shock for the sake of shock after the first couple episodes. It seemed so nihilistic as to be absurd.

The Euphoria finale answers the question we've all had from the start: How sick would it be to watch Colman Domingo dressed as a crazed veteran and Adewale Akinnouye-Agbaje dressed as a rhinestone cowboy have a standoff and shootout in a strip club? The answer won't surprise you: siiiiiiiick
Sean T. Collins24They used squibs. Squibs, Jerry!
Loomin' Onion™7Look I don't care how a show gets to an idea like this, if you come up with this kind of thing you go right ahead and railroad the plot as much as you have to
Godspeed You! Woke Moralists3I would say "I have questions" but honestly this is about right for a show I only hear about via "what the fuck was that"
