Re: HBO: High Maintenance
Trag i just saw ep2 and yeah, it was good. I really liked the second story.tragabigzanda wrote:E2 of this season was terrific. It's two stories that explore a transactional approach to intimacy. The first story was good enough, but then it dovetails with the second story, and that second one was really touching.
E3 of this season was one of the worst yet.
