Is S1 no longer on Hulu? Because if that's the case, then I don't have access to it anymore either. But that's where I watched the first two episodes.tragabigzanda wrote:S1 or S2? i've no way to access S1, so i just dove into S2.durdencommatyler wrote:I love it.

Re: TV: Atlanta (FX)
Ah. Yeah, I was watching on Hulu. Loved the first to episodes of the series but then my wife got caught up in other stuff so it's been on the back burner. Can't wait to get back into it. I hate that I'm fallen off.tragabigzanda wrote:No Hulu in this house. Maybe the library has S1.durdencommatyler wrote:Is S1 no longer on Hulu?

Such a great episode! I didn't figure it out until he yelled at Darius about not being able to understand and it reminded me ofevenslow wrote:YES! I somehow knew within the first few minutes. He was brilliant. Yet another crazy perfect episode.The Argonaut wrote:

For sure. There was something about his gestures that I noticed right away, but my wife watched the whole episode and had no clue.The Argonaut wrote:Such a great episode!

Re: TV: Atlanta (FX)
After sitting on my dvr for a couple days, that was different. It was definitely not what I was expecting but with this show you never know. And being on dvr I didn't realize there was no commercials until over midway through.
And no, I didn't catch on who was under the makeup until after the fact.

The last 3 episodes are one of the best streaks in TV history.

The newest episode with the girls at Drake’s house didn’t do much for me, but holy shit the Teddy Perkins episode was fucking weird.

Not a great ep, but I would love 20 more mins of Darius talking about simulation theory
