- I review, breakdown and explain Top Boy Season 3 Netflix. I discuss the season 5 story in the Netflix show and how it focussed on Dushane and Sully's division. I react to the ending of Sully in the car, and other characters such as Stefan, Jaq, Si, Lauren, Becks and Barry Keoghan as Jonny. I also give my theories and predictions on who killed Sully.

What did you think of the final season of Top Boy? Comment your thoughts below! I wish it was longer, only because I didn't want it to stop. I've got a few videos planned where i'll be delving into the main characters and topics in this final season. Hope you enjoyed this vid! 👊
You know the episode description of Ep 6 said Sully gets confronted by a ghost from his past what if its someone from Summerhouse Series
@@TheProofWisThey’re probably talking about Stefan cuz he confronts him, and Sully killed Jamie in the past, where Stefan witnessed it. So yeah.
I see a lot of comments on here saying this final season was rushed. It wasn’t. It’s the final season therefore eveything needed to be wrapped up smoothly and it was.
There was closure, there was tragedy, there was cohesion. Stefan’s character arc was nicely done as was jaq’s, sully and Dushane.
Performances were stellar. I really felt that moment when sully had the gun in my man’s mouth, really uncomfortable to watch but it made for great t.v. Barry K representing the Irish was the perfect addition to the show even if his screen time was relatively short he definitely chewed up every moment of screen time he had.
Yes there could have been a couple more episodes but it really didn’t need that extension. The show is visceral in tone and gritty in execution. The type of show that allows the characters to feel real and tangible without it being far-fetched and silly.
My only gripe was Dushane murdering his business partner in his own home. He really should have thought about disposing the body. It might have saved him the hassle of running around summerhouse with those bags for the last 30 minutes like some hood-rat. 🤦🏿♂️ 😂😂😂
Minor nitpicks aside this was a sound ending to a fantastic tv series. For me this is the British equivalent of breaking bad.
@@master-of-mind5881 yes it's their opinion don't hate on them 😂
This season should've had 8-10 episodes I don't agree with how Dushane's character was written, him becoming a slime bucket and an irrational person didn't make any sense maybe if there were more episodes they could've given him more backstory as to why he became the way he is more scenes of him mourning his mom and the after effects of losing her should've played a bigger part
The funniest thing about this season is that Latif’s henchmen turned up with rifles like they were battle-hardened mercenaries yet they got taken out in 10 seconds
Bro ran out of cover and just straight into bullets, and they're 'professionals' and were 'guaranteed safety' for dushane, that bit was a bit silly, i literally just finished it now. Sullys death was PERFECT imo because he died by the sword.
Ikr that felt unrealistic icl, if Dushane disappeared quietly while sully was on the other side it might’ve been a better way to continue the show, but no loose ends was kinda foreshadowing for the show to end
😂
@@sinectic3086 you're called chance and luck maybe, they were £250k worth of mercenaries. Lol
@@sinectic3086 nerd
People need to realise the point of the series is to show that in the end there are no winners
Thissssss!
Exactly!!!! This is not a fucking entertaining crime drama it's a crime deterrent!!! So many people are mad this season wasn't filled with drama and it's wild cos that's the last thing it needs
In the beginning it's all happy then In the end you get karma no one wins
Fact how do people not get this
Which is why the show should end right here. The tale has been told and everything from here narratively speaking would just be repeating the same story
The way Sully turned into a straight monster in this season but didn’t shoot Steff at the end was perfect..it showed he finally feels remorse right before he got killed..Sully was holding a gun the whole time, he gets in car and puts his gun in the bag.. it was a perfect ending
Yeah I was about to comment on him having a gun, not many ppl spoke abt this detail. It’s very weird tho because it felt like he accepted stef killing him
@@loulielabsi3806he couldn’t have drawn faster than having one already to him. Not like the cartoon or John wick where they have very very abnormal draw times. Two hands tight in a hoody because of the cold to drawing literally in milliseconds is very very unlikely
the cumulation of carnage hes caused, he felt this was an appropriate death at the hands of a worthy trigger man
@Max2nice he had that shit in his hoody pocket with his hand on it he coulda blasted him thru the hoody if he wanted. Coulda shot him in thr back when he turned around. He made a choice not to kill stef
@Max2nice there's literally videos on the net of people being killed while having the ups on someone. I've seen multiple videos like it on gore sites. It's not very unlikely. Everyone isn't built the same.
“If we’re not monsters, we’re food and I could never be food” one of the best lines in the show or any show given the circumstances and Sully’s character development
100% is!
It's a false dichotomy/dilemma fallacy... but a good line still.
An amazing piece of dialogue.

I hope Kano (Sully) gets more roles as a lead. He has depth and range.
Wouldn't mind seeing him as Bond
I hope so too!
@@GMod428lol
Great actor but let’s be honest he’s only suited for these type of roles
@squidguard1 That may be so, but these kinds of roles are some of the most difficult to pull off correctly. Getting the audience to love and hate you while simultaneously supporting your agenda in secret. That's why when it's done correctly and nominated, it's almost always met with an Academy Award.
Denzel in Training Day
Leo in The Revenant (bit of a stretch)
Daniel Day-Lewis in There Will Be Blood
Joaquin Phoenix in Joker
The only time I can think of when one of these characters lost was in 2002 when Daniel Day-Lewis in Gangs of New York, lost to Adrien Brody in The Pianist.
Kano definitely deserves an award he killed it
Definitely!
Pun intended?
@@Sedou_d10haha killed bloody everyone!

Unbelievable actor
If Stef didn't kill Sully, that boy was the hero of the series and the entire show. Every reason to go down the wrong path but standing at the crossroads with his life ahead of him, made the right choice and didn't follow the way of his brother. Saved himself so much grief and torment and broke the destructive cycle of revenge.
Kano's acting was magnificent and sheer class. Sully was such an intriguing and complicted character but a monster he became and paid the inevitable price.
but that wasn’t the plot point. Sully had a final moment of remorse at the end where he could have finished the kid but finally smartened up. Softly chuckling in the car and putting the gun away only to go out the same way he did to other people for five seasons. And Stef represents the cycle of crime and trauma. It was a bad ass scene I’m gonna probably love it forevevr
@@malcolmbosa3600 he literally said he didn't regret killing Jamie to him as he had to do it, not sure where people are getting remorse from.
Jaq killed sully fool
@@TheKingKurb
Jaq would have to be the odds on favourite. She knew full well that she will always be a target as long as Sully was alive and only a matter of time before he would be coming for her. Sully made it clear she had no pass and forced into a classic case of kill or be killed.
I thought it was probably Sy
A few things that could have been written better:
- Why did Mandy get so much screen time and get so important? I think the riot thing was a little bit over the top, and what happened eventually to the little girl who got hit by the police car?
- Why did Dushane clean so badly after he killed Jeffrey? I mean I get it he was in some sort of angry panic attack, but still he had all the time to clean or could have set the house on fire?
- Lastly, the guys from Latiff that were supposed to get Dushane out, you expect that they were some sort of old commandos, but they got killed within 10 seconds by just two roadmen. I mean cmon...
😂 true say about Latifs guys. Was expecting them to put up a better fight but got blasted within seconds 😂
the accuracy of this post
Exactly Dushane had gloves on and was wiping off everything he touched so how is his prints all of the crime scene? It’s poor writing and it felt rushed
The two last points hit hard. Writing was def rushed!
@@fallingstar2155he didn’t have gloves off and he didn’t wipe the pan
Its crazy how Sully went from my favourite character to a character i was scared of.
Great writing.
Yeah he was such a good character!
One thing that I love is the hypocrisy the roads has. For example, with Jaq she was always shotting food until it started to affect her family thats when she wanted to stop but what she doesn't realise is how much family lives shes already affected. Its something which I loved to see how shes now realising that its bad because its affecting her sister and the baby.
I also love the hard truths they dished out in this series. When Mandy told Jaq that Lauren died because of the food she shot, and how Sully told her that there is no one to blame for her death but her really shows how sad that type of lifestyle is, and that you only start to change when it hits home.
I wish there was more episodes to expand on Jaq’s storyline and that exact lesson.
yup lets not forget about Ats as well, that whole situation was caused by her bringing a kid into this dangerous business, she didn't care then even after all the terrible tragedy it brought, it is only when she is affected that she can see how fucked this whole business she is in is.
That part really annoyed me because she was shotting for time but caring what it did to those families but as soon as it’s a family meme we buying off of your own workers all of a sudden you give a fuck? She was a big hypocrite for that
@@krazykool18i'm sorry sully didn't kill her
I think it was also when jaqs went to the crackheads flat and seen the unclean baby on the floor and drugs everywhere. At that moment she realised the shit she’s caused.
It was Jaq. The intention of the person who killed Sully was just to execute him and leave. That matches Jaq's goal, to cut out of the game. If it was Si or the Irish, they would have went for the bag in the car after killing Sully. The killer just kept on walking away from the scene of the crime.
Of course it was jaq … i knew that will happen at episode 5
It was Jaq! If you look closely as the shooter walks off you can see it's her jacket and shes wearing a bullet proof vest underneath....
It’s literally stef😂 it was the same jacket he had when he pulled up on sully and u can tell it’s a kid
Nahhh bro the person is wearing a green jacket and you can see the way they walk off after killing sully...it was Jaq and there's gonna be a new series with her and others watch
@@ziggysmalls5611it was jaq. She knew that she did not get a pass n sully would be after her. 😢
Just got done watching Sully's death of the last episode 10 minutes ago. Too little of the irish, perfect Jaq character development, too little of Stef and the perfect amount of Kieron and Dushane's stories. 🙌🙌
Yeah Kieron was a good surprise in this season. Got way more of him than usual and some great acting chops were delivered
It was Mandy look at the size the back and the fact she was with jaq at the center
@@JamesBrown-ik6tqthat was nowhere near Mandys size lol, it was Jaq she had to do it or Sully would’ve killed her
I wish it was 10 or at least 8 eps. The Irish story line was fire.
@JamesBrown-ik6tq u miggt be on to someting bruv..🤔🤔
Kano is hands down the best character in the show
It’s Sully
jamie and sully
the two people above me are sausages
Ashley walters and Kano are top boy - both amazing actors with a brilliant supporting cast 👌🏾10 out of 10👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Kano's acting is pure bliss 🔥🔥🔥
I literally can't imagine anyone else in the role
Kano’s acting during the convo with kieron before his death was too 🔥🔥🔥
@@Saffirebloxfr bro even i started to get intimidated bruh😭
@@denzelmusoka4964 innit 😂 That convo and also the last convo with jaq in the last episode where he punches the wall 😂😂 He deserves an award asap
Honestly dude is an outstanding actor,I don't think he knows that, very humble
I think Top Boy ended exactly how it was supposed to end. Everyone is disappointed in how short the Irish Mob lasted but every season they take out a new supplier. The only thing that could have been done better was Dushane’s death, they should have made his death feel like Driss’. The ending was perfect and reminded me of the Soprano ending.
Reminded me of breaking bad.
Nah Dushane's death was good, just as he was about to leave, his entire escape plan failed and he ended up dieing like a coward
@@Ben-Dover777I think the wall symbolized his freedom and if he made it on the other side fine he would’ve escaped but he got shot just as he was right on top of the wall which was the very end of the line
@Amir-qz4bn bro don't over think it...
@@Ben-Dover777he didn't die like a coward..
As a Londoner now in my 60s, I am so proud of of this production team for putting on screen the best and most realistic portrayal of city street gangs in London, as an insight, to ever hit the screen. I know characters of the sort portrayed in the Series and its so on point it gives me the chills. So well done to the the whole Team. This was the best and most realistic representation of some of Londons City Street Gangs & this genre of film to be exported from the UK, and they deserve all of the kudos and acclaim that comes to them for it. Quality and brilliance are just two words that come to mind whilst viewing all three Top Boy Series, which clearly demonstrates their awesome potential for taking on a Big Screen Production.
There were some really good things that people are not seeing.
Stef’s character arc was really well done. He was set out for revenge but matured through conversations with his girlfriend, realising that being a gangsta will kill him eventually. So killing sully isn’t worth it. He doesn’t want to be the top boy, that’s what killed his brother. That was pretty obvious so i don’t know why people want him to be Jamie 2.0. Jamie said in the last season, stef is smart. They showed that here. He’s smart enough to know not to follow the same path as his brother.
Sully’s death was well done. It made sense. The amount of people hes killed in just this season alone, he’s not getting a happy ending. He’s amassed way too many enemies. The Irish, Jaq, stef, Jamie’s friends. If stef wasn’t going to get him, someone else would. It’s a message that being the top boy and living this lifestyle doesn’t end well. There are no happy endings. When you’re in that life, it ends abruptly with no warning.
I feel like people want a Hollywood ending. When it’s not that. It’s real. There aren’t no opportunities for final goodbyes in this lifestyle. There aren’t no final stand offs and there isn’t opportunity for closure.
I felt the deaths were quite Hollywood? both the main character's died following final stand offs with their rivals. Dushanes death especially followed a very Hollywood esque action sequence.
In addition to your first point when Si handed over the gun to stef which jamie gave him and he knew that after his death Si will be giving it to stef but jamie still did not told Si to convey any message to stef while handing it over for example to kill sully or something jamie wanted stef to learn and do what he feels right at that point
This show exemplified perfectly the saying ‘Live by the sword, die by the sword’. The characters either break the cycle of violence and revenge (Aaron, Stefan, Erin’s mother, etc.) or pay the consequences. What a masterpiece.
Break*
From the first moment seeing Dushane & Sully having a laugh at the good van in 2011 to the last scene of Sully tearing up as he realises he shot & killed his brother - brilliant, a piece of British culture on film Kane Robinson should do more screen work, great actor, so is Ashley Walters
The acting and writing is just exceptional
Storm damage is another great Ashley walters drama, if you can find it.
Kano the actor who played stef and Mandy killed it 👏🏽 🎥
Totally agree!
Kano was the scariest he's ever been in this season, for me.. his eyes.. such top acting
The guy who played stef was meedy. Same as keiran
Kano didn't play all those characters though
I HATE KANO AND I LOVE HIM AT THE SAME TIME BRUH
this season felt so rushedd its hard to go unnoticed
That, and it's a 6 episode season with 5 pisodes of filler smfh.. very sub par
imo it was alot better than the previous 2 seasons. season 1-2 were so predictable and this time around I didn't know what was going to happen
I see a lot of comments on here saying this final season was rushed. It wasn’t. It’s the final season therefore eveything needed to be wrapped up smoothly and it was. There was closure, there was tragedy, there was cohesion. Stefan’s character arc was nicely done as was jaq’s, sully and Dushane.

Minor nitpicks aside this was a sound ending to a fantastic tv series. For me this is the British equivalent of breaking bad.
The acting was great but the script wasnt very good an it was definitely rushed, to many weak plot devices, like Jaq stealing the grub, Dushane killing someone an not cleaning up properly after we have seen him kill a bunch of people an get away with it, Dushane not having any stashs of money any houses etc makes no sense. Script was kinda weak its the acting that carries the show
@@flamboyentpromotions3471 exactly bro, the whole world plot was weak compared to what we seen in other episodes, only thing that changed this season was the approach they made, they were more aggressive n heartless but everything else jus didnt make sense, like i get last season n shi but atleast put sum effort
Dushanes ending was real sad, hit pretty hard since it was Sully.
Definitely! Their final words to eachother were emotional for sure
I don't think sully really killed dushane, I think he died from a heart attack from the fall as he took the gunshot pretty well.
Dushane was a greedy murdering sociopath, got to say I wasn't feeling too much sympathy!
@cdog857 true say, he ruined so many peoples lives but came to realisation when his mum talked to him
@@cdog857 didn't think I would feel for him either, but it just made me think back to the first ep of Summerhouse and their journey together.
Steff: Jamie just died
Aaron: later man's got uni innit
😭😭
Hey!! He got uni, let him study 😂😂😂
Despite both being killers themselves there was something tragic to both Sully amd Dushanes deaths. One dying in the bushes, in the dark, behind a grotty estate. The other in the car park after saying good bye to his daughter.
I hope Kano does more films and acting so talented
The first scene where Sully threatens Dushane in the bathroom was one of the best scenes of all the series
Thats fair bro. Thats defo up there for me. Mandy was hero of the whole season @@deansmith9914

@@zoggy7737😂😂😂 he ain’t hearin none of that
I think this season was a bit iffy it was amazing but they under-utilised the hell out of the Irish they kinda did practically nothing other then the brutal mass scare in the retiring home I do think it was absolutely terrifying seeing sully threaten jaq leaving her horrified of someone she considered a friend he completely lost empathy at the end and became the summerhouse monster from the channel 4 show also stef didn’t do much not surprised jaq murked sully at the end
For the first time dushane was vulnerable when bleeding out even quivering a panicking
I hate how we spent the majority of last season in Morocco - - just for them to say “The suppliers are all dead - and Emilio’s entire family was just killed”
@@firstlast9846 yeah it’s such a stupid answer like I’m sorry but the Irish mob would be falling apart if they were able to take out a whole mafia it just makes no sense how they aren’t stressing and living life on easy mode they wasted Barry keoghan in three episodes icl they would’ve been better off not even bothering with the irish
@@Jk-sd3sx i think they killed characters off like it was joke compared to last season it was only two characters this season (excluding dushane and sully cause that made sense) it was like over 3 people in the space of six episodes idk why they didn’t do 10 eps
What? Jaq didn't murk Sully, it looked like a white guy, most likely pay back for the Irish
Last 2 seasons weren't great
Excellent ending. I felt like Sully needed to suffer though. He got the fastest/painless death. He deserved the worst. And that’s a testament to how great of an actor Kano is.
He really didn’t. See, while Sully is murderous brute he doesn’t ever intentionally kill just to kill. There is morality involved as from his perspective he is enforcing street justice to those who broke the code or crossed him. If Lithe and Lizzie took his money he would not have killed Jeffrey in a fit of rage.
@@damage678that’s why he is such an well written character. I couldn’t think of a single scene where Sully wasnt Sully. And Kano being a phenomenal actor sealed the deal for me. I hope we will see him in other crime shows in the future
You gotta realise that sully literally went through hell before he died and was already prepared for it, when stef threatens to shoot him he had his strap on him and we all know if he wanted to he could of easily killed stef there and then (sharpshooter don’t miss fr) his brother who he built his empire with he killed with his own hands, his bredrin he grew up with. Killed with his own hands, his right hand man killed because of his orders, he got betrayed by jaq and kieren and put kieren to death
I believe the shows ending was to show there is no winning when it comes to the street life, dushane had everything but lost it all and eventually lost his life, Sully lost all his close friends to the streets, either killing them himself or due to his involvement in the streets, jaq lost her sister to the drugs she had her ygs shotting, stef loses his older brother who was his father figure, sullys daughter loses her dad same with stefs girlfriend (didn’t care enough to remember her name) and the list goes on and on, nobody in the show wins beside Lizzie and lithe who run off with the money
Only thing I would say is bad ab top boys final season personally is that Lizzie and lithe just get away with all of dushanes money, I wish he had killed them however still lost his money so his downfall could still happen, it’s jus kinda fucked how they just get away with that
The final season should’ve been 10 episodes everything felt so rushed. Besides that it was 🔥🔥🔥 I’m sad it’s finally over..
I was underwhelmed. I felt it made no sense for Dushane to kill jeffery and leave his finger prints or even call someone to clean up the crime scene.
I didn’t understand why Dushane wasn’t worried about the police arresting him especially considering in past seasons they were so good at evading the law . the story line with Lizzy and the accountant was wasted as well as the Irish they were killed off to easily.
Facts
Dushane looked vulnerable after the first episode of this season. The moment he found out Lithe had dipped and the money was gone, its as if he lost focus and became more prang.
Exactly the Irish was filler the whole riots were filler I love this show but damn this season was underwhelming / rushed
A good season but the worst in the series.
No sense to kill the man that he seen partly go blame in stealing all the money he earned. 16 million gone after muders and drug dealing for 5 series.
If any murder was justified ot was that one
Very dissapointed with the ending. This season felt very rushed, so much more could have been done.
I think the reason why it felt so rushed was because it felt more like reality in a way. You see it in Dushane acting more irrational and angry as opposed to being the calm and cool character he’s always been which led to his downfall in how he did a certain action which caused him to slip up when he usually isn’t like that.
Dushane caused his own undoing and sully was nothing more than a case of him having too many enemies which made his end predictable in a way. Anyone could’ve done sully which made it felt "rushed"
People who don’t like this season don’t understand the message it was trying to portray about the road life. It never ends well
Very rushed
@@deathnotefanatic4742The message was coveyed fine over 5 seasons, doesn't stop the ending from being extremely abrupt and leaving multiple loose ends and writing inconsistencies.
Yea. It was disappointing.
*They never knew what to do with Sully* post Season 3… they set him up to realise his daughter was more important than the roads after murdering Dris.. but they repeat his story arc in the next season.. Kano literally carried this show with Ashley
Facts
@@deansmith9914 how sully was ruthless through out this season 🤣🤣🤣 WTH you on about sully was sully and dushane became sully it was very poor writing
Both Dushane and Sully were the scariest they've ever been in this season, for me anyway. They really ranked up the gears on their characters. Excellent acting by them both
This is why people liked Jamie being in it, wasn't just then two like it's always been about, I never enjoyed the Lauren scenes as they were cringe in most parts. I think the whole Lauren dosing on dark and using it to put jaq with the baby and make decisions based off that is a terrible story plot. I thought some sort of retaliation would come from sully ramming his gun down Si's neck but nothing but love scene from Stephen. Did a whole scene about Stephen losing his virginity 🤣🤣like what the fuck
Sully’s character arc made perfect sense when he said that “if we ain’t monsters, we’re food. And I could never be food” line. He’s telling you explicitly THIS IS ME. ITS ME OR NOBODY ELSE.
They told us it was jaq in a subtle manour, she reassures her girlfriend we are going to be okay, and last time she saw sully he said “ that’s why you ain’t getting a pass, neither did keiron” so jaq KNEW in order for everything to be “okay” the look on her face after she cuddled her girlfriend solidified that she knew what she had to do, sully was going to kill her as soon as he left his daughter because he said jaw gets no pass, when have you known sully to leave loose ends? Jaq knew this and she is the only one left alive who knew enough to find sully other than steph, it was 100% jaq and the show tells us without feeling the necessity to tell us as the body language and what they (jaq and sully) last said to eachother), the killer had a hoodie on not blonde hair look closely even resembles jaqs camo hoodie in previous seasons and the killer walks exactly like jaq. This is the subtle way the show wants us to put the pieces together. A random death for sully would not make sense as no knowledge of his enemies still looking for him was shown, only person who needed him gone to be safe was jaq. There you have your answer who killed sully.
Plus the fact the killer didn’t want ANYTHING but sully dead, we know jaq wanted the drugs done and thats what stirred this whole thing up, she also knew aside from her safety in jeopardy that sully would still be poisoning communities with drugs and the way jaq’s scene was shown imediately after dushane was killed, this was no accident. There is no more proof needed if you take it all in and read between the lines, no need for conspiracy when the evidence is right before our eyes so truthfully we don’t need to see jaqs face to know she done sully.
But the thing is it wasn’t a camo hoodie, and the size doesn’t match Jaq, neither her demeanor
@@mikka8007 i didn’t believe it either and thought it was the irish mob or one of the guys dushane called to escape, but there is simply nothing indicating any of that, the evidence lines up to it being jaq, and the show is genius at how they made the ending, like i said all the proof is there, and your reason doesn’t add up for all they put for us to figure out jaq needed to do it. Anything else is mere speculation, i’m just stating what is evident to us.
And one last thing , it reminds me if the ending of the sopranos, the evidence that tony was assasinated was all there as it was his point of view looking at the door everytime someone came in, the last time someone came in it was simply lights out and darkness, but the evidence shows us the focus on a strange man who enters the washroom like mafia style assasins do and probably recovers the weapon feom the bathroom, but without having to show us the sopranos made a genius way of letting us know tony was killed at the end. These genius ways of making the viewer have to pay attention to know what happened is part of how writers can keep making incredible finales to amazing series.
That little Diddy bop the killer had was all Jaq.
The sadness that sully can evoke in his eyes in the moment grips you and is truly amazing acting…it was too short for sure and although Dushane has always been my favorite he died whimpering and balling very unlike his character….jac’s loved her in this final series…overall an amazing series 🙏
very disappointed with the season… irish killed too early, stef was hardly involved, dushane death was perfect. sully had to die but not like that. still feel we’ve been left on a cliffhanger
Sullys death was perfect, how else should he have been killed?
Not really. This reminds me of the sopranos ending where you never truly see it coming. There's always a bigger predator in every field, even sully wasn't prepared.
@ubt3606 i did see it coming in his rear view mirror tho, i knew it would happen
If you actually play that scene back slowly, you'll know who the killer is by the body stature and how SHE is walking.
@@Tigu_El jauqs init she killed him
I binged watched it. Kano was finished by Jaq. Makes sense. Six final episodes were enough. The ending for Dushane & Sully was perfect. Karma hss a long memory.
I agree that it was Jaq, so glad she survived
Yep I feel the same had to have been Jaq
@@jackfrost8600 now I went back and watched it and paused it I think it could also be kenions mum
@@big.ap23 😂😂 ur funny
It wasn’t Jaq. Most likely Si
Anybody that paid attention to the characters can tell that Jaq was the killer. 1. the style in which it happened lined up with Jaqs goals. 2. remember that Sully clearly told her she not gettin a pass after dushane took the kilos. 3. Jaq told her girl if Sully wants her dead shes dead, but told her girl everything will be fine. 4. Sully killed Keiron, her only true friend left. 5. THE KILLER HAD JAQS WALK(Jaq was the only character with a clear pop/hop/skip/ swag in her walk!!!!
Yeah it was Jaq her walking style thats her
I agree, but I think you’re slightly missing the point of the ending… it doesn’t matter who killed him, the message is that no matter what in the life on the roads, you get killed for the situation you put yourself in
If I may argue tho
Jaq was already visibly at peace with the fact she was going to die
It was kieron's mum
Literally explained the exact same thing to my friend earlier
@@wanditoh5554keiron’s mum 😂😂😂, no chance
You could tell there were definitely scheduling issues with the number of absent characters and plot points based on them too
Idk why Aaron wasnt in it tbh, like wtf
Dushane and Shelley’s daughter was nowhere to be seen the whole season either
@@douglasstark8648it’s not Dushane child.
@@cutiepiea3687obviously but it's more jus jarring given how much she showed up in the last 2 seasons and given the fact that Dushane is shown to actually have an attachment to her literally this season they had to name drop her jus to make sure we remember she even had a kid 🤣
I wanted a Lizzie scene, one of the biggest snakes in the show who defo needed a death scene
everybody is complaining about how the main chars die, its not about emotional deaths its about how real they are, like jamies death. i think it fits
Is was cool with em getting popped but the script was terrible
Think Sullys death was realistic not Dushanes it was a bit silly
In the End. There Are no Winners
@@flamboyentpromotions3471 Dushanes was as well, just as he tought he had it all planned out he got killed right before he could "escape"
@@Ben-Dover777 nah because the whole plot line to get him to that stage was weak, him not having 250k after all the mills hes made, an leaving so much evidence after killing the guy. Just weak
This Season felt terrible and rushed as heck
Edit-You can say I'm wrong but at the end of the day it's my opinion and every elses I just didn't like this season that's all I am not ignorant nor a hater I actually enjoy the show it's just this season so continue to moan at me for saying my opinion 👍
Totally agree. I mean, if ur gonna give us 6 eps, they need to be loooooonnnnggggggg.
@@ImStillStealingSteelI think they were foreshadowing the episode drops because first season or as some people know season 3 was 10 eps then season 4 dropped to 8 now Season 5 is 6
To be fair I was expecting a 90 minute final episode based on the fact there was only six, so I was disappointed to see that it was only 55
@@BrainPilot honestly last season was better than this one it just didn't feel right at all and they written half of the characters out of the season and gave no screentime at all and we missed some plot line
Worst season so far and that's including the chanel 4 ones
Dushane does not get enough love, he protected Sully too may times to count. Sully was an underboss at best, and they were better off with Dushane in the dirvers seat. That being said, Dushane should have been more attentive to Sully. You do not want your right hand man malcontent.
For those who dont know who killed sully at the end. You can see clearly it was jaq. The way the person walked , and for sully killing kieron. And sully’s time had to end. Perfect ending. It was a stop to everything
Irish
Good shouts.
Could have also been Stefan who changed his mind ,SI for Sully humiliating him in front of his gang or a hit put out from the mother in the Irish pub who Jonny beat to death.
No it was Jaq girlfriend that killed Sully. Look at the head wrap that the killer has on their head when walking away. Jaq girlfriend had the same head wrap on in the last scene with Jaq.
Killing sully don’t really make a difference, People are still going to push drugs .
No, I thinking it was Kieron's mother bc of the hair wrap. It totally looked like her plus look at her size. It's not Jaq's girlfriend.
Ngl I thought stef was gon kill sully daughter infront of him
That’s what should’ve happened along with him shortly after.
That would have been dark!
Same lol
Stef ain’t built like that
@@BrainPilotmaking someone deepthroat a gun till that spew (which looked really real tbh, was it?) and having Kieron being dragged into the van for his death was dark haha
I was very disappointed that Stef was living in a home. Jamie would have never wanted that. As much as he provided & looked out for both of his brothers, I would have thought Aaron would have stepped up. It was like he turned his back on Stef. What a selfish move. Let your little brother go into the system while you live your best life! The writers could have done better with this story line because it doesn't make sense.
I think Aaron went off to university since that’s what they focused on so much for his character/ what Jaime wanted for him. In my mind I’m sure the plan was he’ll get a degree and out of summer house and come get Stef then instead of sticking around working a minimum wage job all to “take care of Stef” immediately
@@TawanaEvangeline That makes sense. I didn't like seeing Stef in that home. He seemed lost. He needs family especially since Jamie is gone!
@@TawanaEvangelinehe was already at university in London though
I guess there was no money put down for rainy day 😂
I think Lizzie planned everything well. The Irish were there for a reason, this is definitely her homies. Sneaky snake. After killing Juan, Dushane and Sully should have killed Lizzie, teamed up with the Moroccans and Emilio, recruited more people into the gang and more security, then killed the Irish. But greed, pride, recklessness, lies and anger pulled them down. And the saddest part is that many went down with them (Emilio and his children, etc.) If they had a brotherhood, they would all be alive. In the end we see that in the fifth season they have nothing left but greed, cruelty, pride, lies and betrayal. They were doomed from the very beginning of the season.
The Irish had already killed Emilio and the rest of the Moroccans already, and Lizzie had fled without anyone knowing where. It's not that easy to just "team up" and defeat the Irish plus Lizzie. This isn't avengers.
@@praveeshachapman677 It was reckless to kill a player (Juan) who wasn't the last man in the game and then
just not think about the consequences. You had to prepare for the consequences. Letting Lizzie live was also a bad decision. Two grown men going after pride, greed and emotion at a time when cohesion and teamwork was needed. They weren't thinking ahead, they were just cornered by the sheer number of problems that came crashing down on them at a time when their empire wasn't ready for it (because it was falling apart)
Jaq is definitely my favourite character from this season and to know she survived it is relieving. Especially due to her mental health struggles and the fact Sully nor Dushane cared about it throughout this season, especially when the food was involved. With that said I like to think it was Jaq at the end, finishing things off with Summerhouse, protecting her new family & getting revenge for Kieron, starting a new life. However, I like to think it actually was Stef rethinking his decision. Deciding in the end that what had happened to his brother, Si, Erin’s dad Dris & fully knowing how sick Sully truly was, he decided to rid the world of someone like that and maybe take his place. Perhaps just try and live a happy life with Erin & Aaron.
Jaq is the most unrealistic character in the show, no girls are running the road like that, they only added her in to fill diversity quotas. If she really killed sully and the women at the beginning robbed their money its just turned into top girl at this point.. wouldn't surprise me if this is where they take the franchise next honestly. Everything netflix produces is super woke
Jaq is one annoying person. I don't understand how she could be part of the main cast. Defo a token character.
@@lyy90woke his r u mad?
@tamiin1774 no but you sound it 😂
Been watching Top Boy since the very beginning on channel 4, and I was waiting for the final season for a few years. I really feel that it was a rushed and disappointing finale. Such a well thought out and beautifully written show, but the finale was weak. Only 6 episodes and sloppy. The best part was the fact that Kanos acting was some of the best I’ve ever seen in screen history. He’s a brilliant actor
was looking for this comment I completely agree. It lost the charm of all the other seasons and felt rushed. Some of the scenes didn’t make sense and the acting just wasn’t that convincing in a lot of scenes. Last episode was great but overall a weak finale
Agreed. Week final season. It was everywhere it didn’t utilize the work of the other seasons. We basically just moved on without considering the other seasons prior.
Exactly. They rushed Ts soo fast. It kouldve ended better imo but hey at least we got it. I feel the writers were tired
Completely agree
This season was sloppy and disappointing 😂 how are you gonna kill the Irish mobster off so easily
They were introduced as international gangsters that Sully nor dushane had faced before… then they died two episodes later.
I think their cartel were the ones who killed sully tho tbf, i.e, they sent a hitman
Which is why I think one of their shooters took out sully in retaliation
@@ubt3606 finally someone speaks some fuckin sense...everyone claiming to to see jaq are full of shite
@@ubt3606it’s jaq’s
One thing i did notice just now with might be the only continuity mistake of the show and that is Dushane’s heart problems. I can’t remember if he ever went to a doctor in S2 when it first started cropping up but it reappeared in this season just to be forgotten about in E5 onwards. It was shown as very important but at no point did Dushane drop dead from a heart attack. Not whilst hiding from the police & Sully, not in a shoot out, not in a foot chase, not when trying to find Jaq. I find this quite weird as if it was forgotten about or a 2 season long red herring. Or even some kind of call forward to his demise where he would spend is last moments clutching his chest in pain. I don’t know, felt weird to me- did anyone else notice this?
The writers and the directors did a fantastic job of luring us the viewer into getting emotionally invested into Dushane's character arc - he was both pro & antagonist. Sully did a masterful job as the antagonist throughout each season. Their collision course, subtle at first, became quite clear in season 2 and peaked in season 3. That line, "if we are not monsters then we're food" was brilliant. The masks were off, D&S were always monsters and destroyed everything they touched. Dushane's death wasn't intentional but it was fitting (I didn't see it coming and I thought he was headed for prison) and Sully's was inevitable and personal - they made no effort to collect the P's from the car fam. The street life is unforgiving. This was a great series finale. Epic!!
I grew up on Kano’s music, was my favourite artist for years and years, but watching him in top boy made me forget he’s a rapper. That’s how good he was at his role. Absolutely amazing
same good to see hes as good of an as actor as he is an artist, Three wheels up rude boi. have a good day
The ending gave me chills
I think Jaq killed Sully. Looking at how the coat fits the shooter, I think it was her.
@@ImStillStealingSteelnah it was a male who shot him I think it was one of the Irish
@ImStillStealingSteel Maybe.. I'm still very sceptical and I keep looking back, let me know what you find
@@A1HU5541N Also could be true, It's hard to tell
@@ImStillStealingSteelyou can literally see that it’s a white male
It was obviously Jaq.
The coldness of how it was done cancels out Steph and the single hitman and swagger walk cancels out the Irish. ZTs clearly weren't about that life anymore when he ran up on them at their yard.
Plus despite everything that happened that night, Jaq was sure that "everything was gonna be alright" when she got home.
It was Kieron's mother. Look at the shooter's hair wrap and size.

Ninja, you trolling.
Si did it yall
Absolutely loved the whole thing. One of the best shows ever made. So gutted this is done. All the cast were great. Big up to everyone involved. Peace!
I'm pretty sure I know who killed sully. It was Si.
Si and Erin were like dueling angles on Stefan's shoulders.
Si preached revenge and retribution, while Erin preached forgiveness and change.
Sully violated and embarrassed him in front of his youngers, with his mentality we can see there was only one road he can travel down since he was left alive.
Yeah, my first thought was Si as well. You can't allow a violation like that to stand - not even from Sully
100%. Some people seem to think it was Jaq but I don't think so, because she had too much to risk if things went wrong.
@@great567 True, but this season Jaq hasn't been thinking properly....or at all. Some of the worst decision making skills I've seen on any show in the past few years. She really shouldn't have made it through this season in one piece
It was Jaq lol… you can tell by the walk… she always walked with a bop…
Yeah it was Si
I loved how the characters of dushane and sully who we'd been with all this time became so wretched and evil it was just ok to let them go. This just came so realistic to me dushane with his narcissistic crazed self preservation and sully with just reckless destruction
What a great way to end too boy 😢I’m gonna miss that show
Same here!
Notice at one point in the show Dushane tells sully he’s nothing like him because he’s loyal but betrays sully In the end by stealing the bags
Yep! There were so many little subtle things like this which made this a strong series. Remember when Jaq wanted to end the yute who served to Lauryn, and who was it that told her that road doesn’t end well? Sully. Last series Lizzie told her husband if she is no use to Dushanbe, he’ll kill her. Her husband didn’t seem to care. So what did Lizzie and Lythe do? Bump Dushane and run, which led to him killing her husband. Also touching bits like Lauryn seemingly happy again but still on the brown - which led to her drowning. Jaq not ever knowing Lauryn had named her nephew Jack after her either. The series had faults, but was quality overall!
@@danieldefoe7590Nice catch on that Lizzie/husband situation in the previous season, didn’t even remember that
Good observation
This season isn't as bad as people make it to be
There was just too much hype. People were expecting way too much.
Nah its worse
It’s definitely the worse
I think there were some faults but reading the comments, a lot of the subtle things which made the series finale good went over peoples heads.
@@JNB1191 exactly this
Standing Ovation!!! Loved it we need more of something like it
Your hit the nail on the head with this review! 💯 I loved Top Boy and I’m sad it over
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
You have the best analysis on season 3 bro. GREAT stuff!!!
I appreciate that!
Main issues are it felt like they just killed a lot of characters off for no real reason like Lauryn she was just happy with her son then she ends up drowning like it didn't make sense how they got from her being happy to her wanting to take the drugs and drown
Nah that one at least made sense. She was addicted, it had nothing to do with happiness. But yes there are a lot of bad character developments.
She was depressed since she killed her child's father. She's not like the others. Even though he deserved it, a normal person is still gonna feel something knowing they killed someone. She had a good day with her sis but you don't get over depression with a good day or a happy moment. It makes sense.
Because she killed curtis, who in his own twisted way, cared for her unlike his sister and some of the other people she knew around. Plus she wasn't a cold blooded killer
Laryns story was wak af
Lauryn never looked happy with the baby ?!
Been a minute since a movie or show made me cry the conversation between sully and dushane ALMOST had me
I knew when i heard that tiger scene lurking in the forest scene earlier it was foreshadowing something, this was very well written and a great analysis!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
i almost jumped out my chair when sully got shot
I just finished ep6 and ok??? When Netflix acquired the series, we got S1 with 10 eps, S2 with 8 eps, and now S3 with 6 eps??? Like, this season was completely rushed. I was thinking Stef was gonna get his revenge but nope. We get an unknown person that offed Sully. Which tbh, I think it was Jaq that killed him. Just from looking at how the coat fits the person, plus she has a motivate to kill him too. As much as I love the show, Im not completely satisfied with how it ended.
Nah TV shows like Luther were amazing on just 4 episodes *HELL* Summerhouse S1 had 4 episodes.. you don’t need 16+ episodes - just better writers
Stefan killing sully would have been pointless anyways someone from sully past was the one that ended him
Ohyea in the episode info for the last episode doesnt it say sully gets a visit from a old ghost or something, crazy@@jamaa7259
This was always the plan.
They ran out of the ideas the Irish mob showing up no where literally made no sense then killing them so easily very sloppy writing
I agree, it was the perfect way for top boy to end and it was good that this season wasn't all about he the Irish and a war between Dushane and Sully. Though I still find it hard to believe a character as loyal and sensible as Jaqs would have ever robbed Sully, despite feeling so guilty? I reckon they could have written a few more more episodes and fleshed the conflict between Sully and Jaqs out a bit i.e. a differentr reason why Sully would have a problem with Jaqs wanting to retire? Another point in the series when I thought the plot could have been a bit better, was in Season 1/3 when Dushane had Sugar killed. If all it took was for Dushane to find a stripper to poison Sugar in prison, why didn't he do that from the start?
Jaq's feminine instincts started to sink in. When she saw that junkie's baby all dirty she saw her nephew. It clicked that selling heroin was harming the innocent not just the junkies.
When something starts it has to end,just like sullys and dushanes empire.
what a peftect ending to this 10/10 series
One of a kind show pulled off a one of a kind ending!
For me I actually don't feel it was rushed. I think a lot of metaphors were at play in this season. The reason i say that is they could have played out the scenes with the irish, but realistically they shortened that story line. The betrayal, the new suppliers, overdoses' the murders... These were all things we have seen from the show already, Im not sure it needed to play out again for a 5th time. All that was left to see was Dushane and Sully's downfall.
As for who killed Sully I think Jaq had the most reason to out of everyone after Stef and it was not him.
I think it was kierons mom, i mean look at the headwrap and she has a good motive
@@The_GOAT____ nah its jaq- same jacket, same iconic bop, same build, Kieron's mum would be bigger than that
Kano and Ashley deserve a Oscar nominee after that show
I have mixed feelings about this season. On one hand, I think there are a lot of positives, and on the other, there are a lot of negatives. I think Stef was really great this season, but his character arc felt incomplete, and honestly, I like the way his story ended, but him killing Sully would have been far better than the ending we got for both characters.
Second, Dushane's death was just underwhelming the way he went out. I like the whole chat between the two of them; but it could have been much better than it was, especially since they've been through so much together and are basically like brothers. It was just kind of weak. Dushane's ending was extremely underwhelming for the main character.
Jaq I understand the message and what they were trying to set up with her, but it was kind of ass and ruined her character, imo. Besides that, there are a lot of issues and loose ends that never got filled in, like Tia, Ruben, Curtis sister, and the police investigating Dushane and the summerhouse mandem; they feel forgotten. Even Dushane's character felt off this season. Dushane is my favourite in the series; he's smart, calculated, and usually level-headed, but he wasn't any of these things this season; he was just an unbearable asshole. There's a lot more I can type about, but everyone else has already said it. I think the overall season wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. It should have been way longer with much more love and effort put into it, like the first Netflix season. Hopefully this isn't the "end" of Top Boy while this is the final season. Hopefully we can get a special showing us the aftermath and them fixing the loose ends to the story like Breaking Bad did with Jesse.
Yea exactly only 6 episodes they rushed alotta things that should of been flushed out more and Dunshane and Jaq was very out of character this season lol
My fav comment,i 10000% agree
@@hiddenmarcohow was Jaq out of character. She was the best character this season. Stefan killing Sully seems too cliché
Again Dushane, mum died, he'd lost over 10+ mill , the guy had to start moving crazy. Not too crazy that He Can't Clean Up Murder but at the end of the day, Dushane has always been a selfish character since s2. He just used people to get where he needed to go. And when sh*t hit the fan he didn't have time to put on a front
@goodftoest I didn't say anything about Stefan killing sully I actually think him choosing to not kill sully was a good thing for the story he chose not to become part of the cycle. But jaq seemed loyal to the group never woulda saw her as someone to do what she did even in that situation dunshane was in character the whole season up until the final season he was moving very sloppy as shit in the final season dunshane doesn't seem like one to rob his own ppl as he takes loyalty very seriously it doesn't fit his character what he did to jaq he seemed like one that would always try to be fair and not take everybody's cut for himself even with all the bullshit going on
A great breakdown, I gutted that I binged watched the final series, was not prepared for the ending
This is one of the best shows, I've seen in a long time. I didn't want it to end. One thing for sure who needs best friends when they all getting killed by their friends. I'm good over.😢😅. Thank you to the actors and producers. Excellent job. I can sure relate. I live in NYC but I love watching shows being filmed in London and Jamaica.
Great season. Watched it in one go. I wonder who consulted producers on this, because this was insanely bloody.
It’s this a paid promo or something 🤣🤣🤣 this season was terrible the worst in the whole series so maybe I high or something 🤣🤣still the acting was very good in my opinion
@@ukculture9240 the previous seasons were the most predictable tv ive ever seen, this season was class! didn't know what was going to happen at any point. The care home seen was fkn crazy🤣
@@ClassicCOD the care home scene was very entertaining 🤣 but Yh naar this season was absolute dog shit 🤣🤣🤣 very predictable it’s you knew sully was going to die you knew dushane was going to die I could tell the sister was gonna kill herself within the first 2 minutes of her first scene they definitely rushed this season but hey at least they brought back top boy
You wonder who consulted with the producers? It was Satan bro. What kind of question is that?
Boy would have been better off being deported , I guess Mandy was foreshadowing plus the lil girl dying was heartbreaking after seeing her go outside to play with a friend ….
Greed got the better of Dushanbe in this series. He is usually so slick but went on a killing spree because of money and power. A bit like Shelly said, he cares more about money and power than anything or anyone else.
I hope Top Boy gets a spinoff going in the direction of Sully's killer (Jaq from what I think) and of course Stefan. Although I'm a massive fan of the series I must say, this season felt rushed and in my opinion was the weakest season of the whole franchise. To have the Irish crime family being scaled to be the most ruthless and dangerous threat to Sully and Dushane, then kill them off so quickly didn't sit well with me. I was excited to see what Barry Keoghan would bring to this show as he fits into the franchise perfectly. The only emotional moments I cared for were Stefan speaking to Jamie and his family, the death of Luaryn and the heart to heart between Dushane and Sully. I've come to terms that shows like this ultimately portray choices have consequences and consequences affect everyone.
The reveal of the undercover police agents was a fantastic twist that was so unexpected. I was invested in their investigation into the criminal organisation and wanted to see how Dushane would navigate throughout that direction.
I think that the writers had too many stores to conclude and felt pressure finding a way to execute a good/satisfying ending.
On the other hand I've learnt that just like in real life, nobody knows their ending and final fate. The roads dont forgive and love anyone.
With that being said if the franchise continues I hope for the name to be Top Boy The Next Generation or A New Age. I love this franchise and hope to see these talented performers in new projects. Standout performances from Ashley Walters, Kane Robinson, Micheal Ward, Jasmine Jobson, Saffon Hocking, Araloyin Oshunremi and Jolade Obasola.
BrainPilot thank you for the reviews and your takes on these shows, much appreciated.

A work of art. Thank you so very much to all of those involved in the Top Boy series.
I think you have shown many of what are from possible true stories in the most sensitive way.
This review was spot on!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
Yes I feel like the last episode could’ve been a bit longer but tbh this is how it goes in the street life, no one wins and I think this season truly represents this
Im still gutted by Dushane's death. I was praying he wouldve disappeared with the bag when sully hopped over. It just seemed like he could always find a way out, thinking about his time in Jamaica. But he allowed himself one crucial mistake this season, making promises he couldn't keep. It feels weird rooting for such an evil character. At the end, atkeast til his death, Sully was the true Top Boy. He killed everyone who was ever in his way, Dris, Juan, Jamie, Johnny....and Dushane
I think of it different sully was never top boy he could never ever be top boy. Bobby raikes said it all the way back in the beginning, he is too rash and made too many enemies. He thought he finally had gotten rid of all his obstacles and all his ops. Stef even let him go. He was in the clear and was top boy for 2 seconds before he got popped.
@@deejaydj6013saying it vs seeing it. I know they can say he wasn't top boy, but his actions made him top boy to me.
He always wanted to be Top Boy instead of right hand to the real Top Boy, Dushane. He killed the Top Boy then he died.
Excellent review. Like you, I also thought that was the best way the show could have ended. The main characters had to be taken by the streets and in the same manner they they'd taken so many others. I felt the writing and performances were also superb; also loved that the suspense around Sully was held right up to the final scene . I'm glad the franchise is over. The producers didn't fall into the temptation of dragging it out till all the juice of the show was drained out. Well done to all involved.
Well said!
I liked the way it ended. No glam, no glitz, just great acting. Bravo!
This season had me feeling unsatisfied, I may change my mind but if anything I was kind of feeling sad because once Jamie and Kit were no longer around and even Aaron it felt a bit depressing but seeing Si and the dude with Nike hat from Jamie’s crew was nice to see. What happened to the girl with the short hair and blue lip stick that was part of the ZT’s ?
I feel satisfied with the ending because they all deserved what they got.
“It felt a bit depressing”. What ate you expecting, a comedy? 😂
This is the first time to see Dushane be that reckless, as Summerhouse showed him to be rational, especially during tough times. He lost it when he killed Jeffrey. It was out of character to leave all those clues behind.
Can't believe someone has already done an ending video of this season. Its literally only been out a day!!!
I think once we come to terms with the fact that there wasn't enough to like about them in the end ( which was brilliantly built up and dismantled) and that the apparent "it was all a waste of time" of the entire journey, I think that's the point brilliantly made. Feel like I do after I've watched the boxing. The adrenaline but numb feeling. Absolute genius.
They butchered my boy Dushane this season SO FUCKING BADLY Somehow Dushane is more like Sully than Sully is like Sully this season Dushane is usually the smart level headed clam thinker the strategist that's what always set him apart from Sully and the rest of the SummerHouse gang or the ZTs Dushane was handled so poorly this season it actually annoys me while his death convocation with sully was good everything leading up to it was shit and even when he got shot was shit dushane being cornered and being taken out with a shot to his side and crying as his consciousness fades away...man this really isn't how I pictured the Top Boy dying let alone the main character from the entire series every character this season was soo poorly written but Dushane was done the most dirty and like genuinely annoys me that one of my favourite characters in top boy in fact fiction as a hole has a sloppy end...They genuinely need to rerelease this season with longer episodes and with a better script because genuinely this is such a heart-breaking and disappointing end to one of the BEST crime dramas ever made.

Most powerful thing I saw was Sully could’ve shot Stefan through his hoodie holding his glock the entire time but was willing to accept his fate. He was already mentally exhausted from it all & was going to let Stefan have it.
Stefan would’ve shot him and saw his gun fall out of his pocket while he held it.

It was Jaq who killed Sully. The moment she told Sully, Dushane had robbed her and Sully tells her she gets no pass it was pretty much the end for Jaq. She took him out, she had to.
I think the whole season was done pretty good, could have done a bit more around the Irish gang and a scene with Dushane and Lizzie but other than that it built up nicely.
The opening scene between Sully and Dushane was fire and the last scene between them was class, brought it to a great conclusion.
I still think that this last season should've been longer than six episodes.
It felt a bit rushed with how quick they killed the Irish.
Once Dushane heard that Lizzie was in Ireland, I really wanted it to go to him using Johnny and his family to get to Ireland to look for her
Absolutely loved it!!!! I could care less who killed Sully as long as he was killed. Great final episode. 👏🏾
I agree, the 3rd season was short but oh so sweet, it wasn't dragged out in any way, it was a rollercoaster, full on and unflinching, from start to finish you could feel the knots tightening, and the finale delivered in the most unexpected and powerful way. For this, despite it's length, it was the best of the 3, it was the pinnacle of all the character development we grew to know before it, as any good saga should culminate. Kudos to the producers, the strong performances and the delivery. it hit hard, and I loved it!
Sully was the best written character in the show,he’s an anti-hero but more of a villain at the same time,Dude was a horrible person but I liked him for that,he was honest and didn’t mind taking out a fan favorite
Sully’s character development was probably the best thing of Top Boy as a whole
Just finished it, I really hoped it would be a happy ending. Kind of poetic in a way how it did end.
Definitely poetic!
