Vice Principals Season 2 (HBO)

[Deleted]

Well the show is back and I'm excited for f*** for this semester. It has to be Lee Russell who is Gambi's shooter and I hope the revelation is glorious. Also holy shit love Belinda Brown's new tattoo. I hope she's a regular in this season.

Dammit , I just cancelled my cable , along with it came a subscription for hbo . Now I'll never know who shot Gamby

Honestly after last night, it would be incredibly cheap if Russell is the shooter. I starting to think it's Ray.

I agree it's Ray, or possibly Gail. Russell is too obvious.

I think it's Russell despite it being obvious. I think it's going to be built up more as Gambi inevitably finding out and how he's going to react. Kind of like the things Walter White hid from Pinkman that you knew he would eventually find out from or Goggin's other character in The Shield doing that awful thing and how he covered it up.

I mean it's still funny, but this hasn't quite measured up to season 1 at all. I guess Dr.Brown is needed. They also seem to shift from finding Gamby's shooter (which is what I want to know) to breaking down Russell's sociopathic behavior.

The focus on Russell's sociopathic behavior and downward spiral is whats leading me to believe it's Russell. He'll probably get fired and give himself away and the final episode is a confrontation. But this season was going to lack without Dr. Belinda Brown who stole the show last season.

Man after last night I have two scenarios and one is going to sound silly as to who shot Gamby.

1) the teachers conspired to hire a hitman- Abbot planted the stuff in the trunk to get Neil paranoid and to get back on him for not inviting her to spring break. The teachers hate both Gamby and Russell and it was all part of a plan to get rid of both of them from North Jackson

2) Mi Cha shot Gamby. She hates Russell, shoots Gamby so Lee can be principal, become a sociopath under the pressure causing Christine to leave him, getting what she wanted all along. Remember Lee said it was a "new jeep he won in the divorce" so it was Christine's at one point.

I still think it's Russell. The whole arc of the series is about two greedy sacks of shits who can't stand each other who done everything they could to become principal. When they both got what they wanted the sadder sack of shit in Russell wasn't satisfied of being a co principal and took down Gamby. He only brought back Gamby because everything about him is falling apart in professionally, his former friends with the teachers, and his marriage and Gamby is his useful idiot. The whole storyline is set on how Gamby is going to confront Russell.

Will he become a better person through this entire ordeal and actually forgive Russell seeing on what he truly is? Or is he going to torture him to death? When Belinda Brown only being included in one episode this season it pretty much signified a story about confrontation and redemption than a murder mystery. Especially when they signified Belinda Brown has moved on with her life and reconciled with her family or her tearfully plea of "You can have this f***ing job" in finale of last season.

Plus it fits the kind of characters that Walton Goggins plays. He plays pieces of shit irredeemable characters better then anyone else in Hollywood. You could tell the role was written with him in mind and the show would only be made if he said yes. It's going to be interesting to see if Gamby is going to forgive Russell or pity him so much and see if he will self destruct on his own merits (getting fired, pissing off the wrong person, getting arrested) or if he is going to torture him Jigsaw style.

Well the series is over. I guess it did make sense for Abott to be Gambi's shooter. Kind of disappointied they went with that route but that finale might of been the funniest episode of the series for how balls to the wall insane it was. Walton Goggins is a natural treasure and should get nominated for an award.

Bumping because I just watched it over the past couple of nights. I thought it was going to be a left fielder like Christine in order for Lee to get the job then I thought it was gonna be the obvious choice in Russell.

I legit jumped out my chair when Abott shot Russell because I knew it was the finale and well.....she shot him in the fricking head. I mean between that and surviving a tiger attack I think Russell might be immortal

Really enjoyed the fight between Gamby and Russell as well as the insanity of the last episode. And Stevie from Eastbound and Down making a cameo was sweet too

Really enjoyed the show. I love dark humour like this and the afore mentioned eastbound and down

I wonder what's next for Danny McBride?
