It really turned around in the second half.
Overall though the show is barely treading water holding my attention.

Tom Noonan seems to play only religious roles lately (Leftover, Hell on Wheels, Louie)

Three of these are sitting on my DVR, but I don't seem to be able to build up the desire to watch them.

True story, a guy I work with thought this was a comedy about people stealing lunch leftovers. He was wrong when he finally got to his DVR.

I don't believe you. Could you upload a video of your friend saying this? (preferably holding a copy of today's newspaper and a copy of Lightning Bolt)

Liv Tyler's character is terrible. Her motivation for going to the GR is non-existant and joining them full-fledged makes no sense. If there are reasons, the show is wasting a well-known actress on a character with the depth of Stickman.

liking Hole is nothing new, but if you're telling me that RM is all about Courtney Love the person, then I am just going to walk away right now.
