Please allow me to take you back: We are winding down the final episode of season two, and longtime couple turned exes Issa and Lawrence are poised to say good-bye to the apartment they once shared. They broke up roughly one year before, ostensibly over Issa’s affair with a friend, but also over a slate of unaddressed interpersonal issues. Doing one final sweep, they meet in their old kitchen, now empty of its appliances and quotidian clutter.
Mercifully, yes; Lawrence’s sweater bludgeoned other viewers the same way it bludgeoned me, breaking their focus at a pivotal moment. “Why are they dressed so different,” wondered a trio of Washington Post writers watching the finale when it originally aired. Lawrence, they noted, “looks like a ’90s R&B lead singer,” or Montell Jordan. “Like seriously what’s the weather like for that cable knit mock turtleneck to be appropriate.” The people demanded answers, but no answers ever came.
