Getting close.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. 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.

My wife and I binged this over the last week, and it's so, so good. Didn't realize S3 is just around the corner!

[dad]

Season Three premiere is tonight.

my body is ready.

[Revelator]

Hell yes, I am ready. Long time coming

[Rob]

Woke up so excited for this today, then realized it’s not available until 10pm. Grrr. Can’t wait.

[Malloy]

my conviction that this is the best show on tv is stronger than ever

[VinylGuy]

i wasnt a huge fan of the episode, but its nice its back.

[Monkey_Driven]

We had to watch the recap a few times to piece together what happened the last season. It's been a long time.

[Rob]

Weird season opener, but I f’n love this show.

[Biff Pocoroba]

More drama than laughs in the opener. Nice job on the fake ending before the last 60 seconds, which I first thought might taken place in Barry’s mind. I definitely want to see where it goes.
Great job by Hader, who also directed. Cool tracking, nicely choreographed shot midway through.

Hader is great, all around. I also love the NoHo Hank character. Dude is gold.

Agreed Noho Hank is my absolute fav--Hader is fantastic too. This was def a weirder episode, didn't really grab me after first watch but better after a second.

Hader guested on The Ringer's Prestige TV podcast with Sean Fennessey to recap the episode. I think the plan is for him to appear every week during S3?

He needs to go on The Watch. One of the best TV/pop culture pods out there.

[VinylGuy]

yeah, i didnt love it.

Not sure if they can pull it off without Winkler being dead.

[Mecca]

Man, I cannot remember what happened between Barry and Sally last season, but her dynamic seems like she hates him and has something over his head?
