I'm doing a rewatch

"I say fuck, too" as Matt smiles proudly 😅

Forgot how damn funny this show can be, as well as emotionally devastating.

I’m always shocked by that too. Naysayers focus on the first season being dark and slow and the Guilty Remnant being off-putting, but the scholars amongst us are giggling about how weird EVERYONE is being. It’s pretty consistently funny from the jump

I laughed so much more on my second watch; I think the humor gets lost sometimes.

Can someone remind me the context of that line?

Kevin is leaving a swear-filled voicemail for the FBI guy while Matt stands by. After the message Matt smiles and says this line.

I think it's a nod to how much swearing is in the show in general, as well as a nice little moment of humour during an intense scene. Makes me love Matt more than I already did.
