I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

It went off the rails for me early in S2 and I haven’t kept up. Looks like it got darker?
It got dark and weird, but I’m invested and want to see it through.

im dying to see the new season. Huge fan of the show and everything Sam Levinson does. Have you seen the two special they did last year? they are a must see.
watched the new one last night...lord, what a great, depressing show this is

I laughed for a solid five minutes during the scene where Chantal meets her family at the restaurant, and her sister and BiL start talking about Hot Baby, the hot sauce he invented.

Alika Shawkat is such a great comedian, but the ensemble cast was on another level too.

I watched DMZ. Had no idea it was only four episodes and then it just ended. With a pretty dumb ending, i might add.
