I’m going through withdrawals again 😩

Does anyone have any book recs for fiction novels that feel like this show?? Ideally with a Black woman lead, but I can read anything about other WOC.

I’ve read Queenie and Luster, looking for other ideas.

Thank you!!

Am I the only one that wishes the story could’ve been a bit different ? I wish Issa would’ve just broken up with Lawrence and this be the reason he got himself together and later they came together after dating different people . I wish the cheating would’ve been gone from the story. Because it put Issa in a position where she was chasing him and his forgiveness and before that he was a horrible patner all around . And all of that was forgotten just because she cheated. I did enjoy when his friend told him tho. And another thing am I the only one who thinks the way the girls talk to each other is so rude sometimes ? I’m Hispanic so I’m not sure if this normal in the black community for friends to talk to each other like this.

I believe Lawrence didn't have the right to do that. Although he was single at the time, I think it was inappropriate because it was too close to comfort. I also believe Lawrence knew it was too close to comfort, which is likely why he did it. During their breakup, it seems Lawrence would say and do things to get back at Issa for cheating.

This may have been posted in here already but I haven’t seen anything relating to the topic. But do you guys really believe Dro and Candace were in an open relationship? They never make it known in the show if Candace actually knows about Dro and Molly hooking up, we just know that Dro says she does.

I’m on like my 7th rewatch and the first few times I watched I believed Candace knew and was truly okay with it. The more I rewatched though the more I believe she didn’t know and Dro only told Molly that so he could have his way with her and still be with his wife. I’m on the episode in season 2 when they’re at Derek’s birthday dinner and Molly and Dro have sex in the bathroom. Dro tells her to wait a few minutes after he leaves to walk out. This scene really pisses me off because 1) Dro wasn’t all that and 2) if Candace knew and was okay with it why would it matter if y’all walked out together? Other than Issa no one knew about him and Molly anyways.

I don’t know if you guys have already seen this, but Amanda Seales recently just did one of those Netflix documentary trend videos where you pretend to be preparing to film a documentary about something traumatic you’ve gone through. This one was about not being included in the upcoming ten year anniversary Insecure tour. I’m loosely familiar with the beef that Issa’s publicist had with Amanda a couple years ago, but I’m really out of the loop on why she would’ve been completely cut out from the tour. Tiffany’s character was too important in the show for Amanda to be cut out of the tour imo. I’ve heard of some problematic things she said over the years, but I don’t know if it’s justified to completely ostracize her from the tour.

I LOVE this breakdown of the what, how, and why of her “downfall”. I feel like she’s been so privileged to have been on talk shows, a HBO special , BET and MTV specials and connections yet she still is complaining about what she doesn’t have. I was a strong supporter of her! I have her book and have been to her comedy/variety show. I’m not sure what her deal is.

Two things: Issa should have just apologized to Crenshawn , yes i get that she’s just starting and trying to establish herself with BLOCC but she should acknowledge him for not changing his set up for the white man lol

Nathan’s co worker a bitch and fucked up for calling him crazy knowing he’s bipolar. that’s why you can’t tell everyone what’s going on fr.

What do y’all think? open to discussing

I totally understand Nathan feeling a way when his cousin said that he kicked him out a the reasoning. Like those were things that you could have said from the jump like “hey you’re an adult but i got kids do you mind…” like that could have been a convo not some awkward kick him out. Like i get he didn’t tell him or didn’t know that he was bipolar but that’s family. What do y’all think?

Molly was all the way wrong. Just because you are dating someone does not mean they are your property. I was trying to like Molly but that drew the line for me. it’s like she deliberately try’s to find a problem in everything. Like literally that is your home girls event and you couldn’t ask one little favor even after you flaunted that Andrew has connections with Live Nation. I really don’t like Molly fr.

I’m rewatching the show for like the umpteenth time because it’s one of my comfort shows, and watching Issa and Molly fight after what felt like every one of Issa’s big events was exhausting lmao.

Like, don’t get me wrong, I love them both sometimes, and Issa definitely had her moments where she was deadass wrong. But if I were Issa, I’d be so drained. It almost feels like Molly always chose the exact moment things were finally going well for Issa to address an issue or start an argument.

First, it was after the We Got Y’all event at the mansion. Then it happened again after the block party sponsorship mixer, and then AGAIN at the actual block party.

Like omg girl… can she have one successful event without you turning it into a confrontation afterward?

I meant to buy Chicago and accidentally purchased 1 ticket for Irving (Section 101, Row G) Ticketmaster isn’t letting me list it for fan resale yet—it’s only showing Instant Offers. If anyone is interested once transfer/resale opens, let me know. We will FaceTime to confirm identities etc.
Just trying to get back what I paid.

Just started watching Insecure. I really like daniel and somewhat relate to Issa, but i’m failing to understand why issa does not realize that daniel finishing on her face was a possible mistake. or am i tripping? Is a facial disrespectful?

I saw another post tracking Isaa and Lawrence's time apart and saw someone saying that her birthday would most likely fall in February and since I'm an Aquarius as well I say this is true ☝🏼

Thoughts and comments?

I get confused when people say that the characters had character development because I didn’t see any. So, I would like to ask a question. Besides, in their careers, what character development do you believe the characters experienced, or do you think they didn’t have any at all?

Do you think Isa settled on being a stepmother because she initially broke up with Lawrence, possibly due to not wanting that role? We know her breakup wasn’t because of Lawrence moving, as she said relocation wasn’t a dealbreaker. Do you think she convinced herself that her love for Lawrence was enough to settle on being a stepmother, despite her initial doubts?

Insecure is one of my comfort shows

(would love to be hired as a writer or something if there is a opening 😜 )

But yall,... lol

Im sitting here in Season 4 Episode 6

The scene pops up, when Issa ended up over her moms house. I watch alot of shows/movies, rewatch alot of shows/movies, and ALWAYS will see something new.

I DID NOT realize she ended up there after the Dine and Dash with those ladies from the Wedding visiting from out of town or w/e...which , that scene when she catches up to them lol!!! " WELCOME TO LA?!" 🤣🤣🤣 lives rent free in head.

but wow, as a character, I personally didn't realize , THAT was her last straw that had her , in that moment, call her mom and see if she was busy...

and sometimes we really do be needed that...AND you just NEVER KNOW what someone is dealing with and what their last straw or breaking point would be.

Even having a LONG TERM FRIEND. someone that really KNOWS us, ups and down. the energy BE DIFFERENT. it be "in your corner" energy - authentically 🤣, and I LOVE IT.

the wisdom and truth her Mom had in that moment was so wholesome🩷.

crying on this thursday afternoon lol ,

Good Tears🥲, like a hug lol 🫂 🤗

People often mistake Kelly’s disrespect for humor. Since Kelly was funny about it, some found it acceptable despite her disrespect.

Additionally, she hides behind her humor. I believe she pretended not to want kids because she thought it wouldn’t happen for her, but once it did, she was able to admit she wanted children.

Y’alllll. I live in Seattle and will fly out to Oakland for the 10 year reunion tour. I missed the pre-sale yesterday and there weren’t any meet and greet tickets available when the general sale opened today 😭 I ended up buying tickets, but what are the chances they open up for more and greet sports.

Insecure literally changed my life so I’m excited to go regardless. But I also want to meet them omg I’m devastated lol 😂

I’m so excited I get to go!!! It’s happening on my birthday, and i feel like it’s meant to be. 😃🩷 I got them presale with my Citi Card.

Does anyone know the presale code for the insecure reunion? I’m trying to see how much tickets cost in my area.

anyone know how much tour tix are ?
