“Nobody Beats the Biebs” is an early example of Atlanta setting its own rules, a confidence that earned it a place in the upper echelons of television just as Al makes it into the rap game. Go to Full Review

I did like the separate adventures we got this week. I'm enjoying the way the dynamic shifts as we see the characters in different constellations. Go to Full Review

Luckily, as with everything Atlanta, Glover and company keep the message subdued and sandwiched between some surreal laugh lines. Go to Full Review
