Because she's cool, and hasn't fucked around, and the show would be better off in the long run not continuing to dive deep into some boring Issa-Lawrence 'great' love story. I'm already ready to move on.

And what if the creators of the show are intentionally leaving out that Tasha is sleeping with other people?
Lawrence's ass was sleeping on Issa's couch wiping cheeto dust all over the cushions, while Issa was supporting him. I feel there is something to salvage.
Honestly I think it's an ode to all the crappy roles and shows most black people normally are portrayed in. Like before that they had that lock up show.

Oh, I have no doubt the writers are gonna ultimately push the story down the most predictable of television paths, we all see that coming but what I'm saying is that shit isn't clicking with me. I don't want it salvaged, and if Lawrence was real (and smart) after finally getting his shit together, he wouldn't either.

He is going full Uncle at Home with her. I can't see it not forcing her hand. It just disappointed me a bit. There's a certain cowardice about Issa that makes it easy to see why Lawrence Hive is loud and legion.

He's still living on a blow up bed at his friend's place. His shit still ain't together.

You're not wrong there, but like I said, stop fucking around, take that apartment (which was said he was gonna accept, right?, unless that phone call during that small amount of stalking was a bunch of bullshit), and choose the path of least resistance. (until further notice)

Hell yes!
I wonder how much it helps that it follows Game of Thrones and Ballers.
Correct me if I'm wrong but for the two years that Lawrence was on the couch he was using his savings/cashing unemployment checks. I don't think Issa was financially supporting him.

It would be impossible to overstate how much that helps it.
Does this mean more Lawrence fans

she should've kept the weight.
Agreed.she looks way too skinny here. There was nothing wrong with her weight.

Me and my crew have been talking about this. Is it Hollywood pressure or "I got money so I'm gonna eat right and get a trainer"?
I say Hollywood pressure. Everyone out there loses weight because they think their faces look fat on camera.
Uh uh.
Lawrence may be on some shit but Tasha's hands ain't clean, either. Fuck the good girl act now, she was throwing it at Lawrence all last season knowing FULL WELL that he had a girl. Just stank.
What makes her even dumber is that she caught feelings on a dude while he was with someone else and then KEPT those feelings even when it was clear that she was his rebound. I thought Tasha was at least smart enough to only want Lawrence for the dick potential. But she cuddling him on the couch watching soaps in the daytime and shit? Nope, when shit goes South she'll have nobody to blame but herself.

Issa was paying the rent while he was cashing said savings/unemployment checks
....with his broke ass
He's really tall
Still hoping things turn out well for Tasha.

That's not even it. If she had a trainer, she would have gained some muscle mass.
She looks like she lost her booty. :-(

Dude is 6'1 or 6'2". I was a stand in on a episode of the Game and he was around my height.

So Tasha says herself she knew what it was but is still angry? Lawrence should not have gone to that family thing though. Crossed a line.
*nods approvingly
I've experience going for what should be a hook up and awkwardly leaving without doing anything. Even the laughing part I've experienced this show is a bit to realistic. I also hate Molly she is the type of person that deserves to be alone and miserable. Tasha telling Lawrence that he wasn't shit was really great and he needed to hear that.
Man, where they brought Lawrence this week compared to last week is kind of crazy. I know some thought he was always a fuck nigga but still, going from kind of caring about not hurting Tasha to pretty much saying "I'm done with you" just days later seems to go against the grey area character he had been. Right now there's no reason to feel sympathetic towards him. Unless they're setting him up to get burned I don't know what his purpose is on the show anymore (hyperbole).

Yes because he still hasn't done anything I wouldn't do in real life.
If Tasha knew it wasn't serious, then why did you invite him to meet your family?

I think she said that to try and save face.
Never was

STILL. we outchea
also Lawrence isn't bulky enough for it to be obvious in street clothes. he built more like a basketball player

Lawrence at least could have ate a burger, played a few hands of spades before leaving like that. I can't see Tasha messing with him anymore.
Issa's neighbor getting high and watching Gossip Girl was great.
She has to remember to open up a window when painting next time though.

Yep. Dude tried to hop in another relationship after getting burned by Issa. At least now he knows he's doesn't want that shit at the moment. Tasha has a right to be upset, but she knew what was up.
Grizzlyjin
Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
I'm on the fence. I'm not mad at him, but stuff like leaving the BBQ is iffy. Everything Tasha said on the phone was right. Lawrence isn't malicious, but he didn't want anything serious and played like he did.

I just want Lawrence to get a white girl next because I need to see twitter burn 😈. Other than that, Lawrence is still the best character on the show.
Do anyone know why Issa is so beautiful? Like I can't put my finger on it
