A surprising turn of events makes for an unsatisfying conclusion to a lackluster show.
A lot can happen in 20 minutes. Six weeks can fly by, and lives can change in the blink of an eye. Relationships can be destroyed and rebuilt, tours can be set up, and what once looked like sweet, sweet revenge can be turned into something else entirely. “Jocelyn Forever,” the final episode of HBO’s The Idol, is a fitting conclusion to the show that came before it. Thematically, it’s completely empty. Story-wise, it doesn’t bode much better.
Tedros tries desperately to cling to every last bit of influence he still has over Jocelyn and the rest of the “family,” which, in turn, makes him give off some pretty ridiculous and sad vibes. Oddly enough, this isn’t a bad look for the character. Turns out that when he’s being a sweaty, drunken, pathetic mess, as Jocelyn puts it, Tesfaye isn’t that bad of an actor. Tedros is only a problem when he’s trying to put on a show.
Meanwhile, Leia is dealing with some problems of her own — or, rather, she's dealing with a Jocelyn problem, but one that Jocelyn isn’t yet privy to. Remember the woman that Xander took a picture of Rob with last week at Tedros’ behest? Well, she’s now falsely accusing Rob of sexually assaulting her, and the news is set to hit the media at any time now.
Tedros Slithers Back to Jocelyn’s Side And then there’s a time jump. Six weeks later, Jocelyn is getting ready to perform the first concert of her new tour. Nikki, Finkelstein, and Chaim are all celebrating Tedros’ downfall, mocking him and congratulating themselves for destroying his life.
