L'OTTAVA STAGIONE È PRONTA, Pt.II REVIEW

Another quotable that’s hard to go unnoticed off The Champagne Theory is the Chinese curse that reads as follows: “May you live in interesting times, may you come to the attention of those in authority, may the gods give you everything you ask for" On Æther propositions of seeing Quintessential Arts as an omnipresent entity were made, reasonably so. In simpler terms Quintessential Arts could be defined as inhabiting all space and time. But for the 8th season; Quintessential Arts only exists in the 1900’s spanning a vast geography from New York to Chicago with the soundtrack of this existence being never ending sounds of sirens, shell casings falling on the ground in stop signs and the ambience of throats getting slit with razor blades in barbershops. In terms of barbarity? Not too different from the sheer graphicness you’d see in colosseums of Ancient Greece, but this time the damage is inflicted with baseball bats in strip clubs and faces rubbed against crap tables in casinos with owners being shaken for protection money while the feds run electronic wiretap programs trying to put a halt to this thing called The Commission. Surreal, right?
