Be interesting to see how this plays out in comparison to Netflix's Ozark show.

Haven't watched that but thought of it immediately. Weird timing.
I know it's too early for this shit, but Wayne Hays = Wane Haze? (wane: decrease in vigor, power, or extent; become weaker, haze: a state of mental obscurity or confusion). Sounds like a character in the Rust Cohl mold.

Awesome. I hope for some redemption here with all this time between the last season. Time to write, cast, and execute and get back to what made the show so wonderful.

I posted earlier that I rated S2 a 6 or so, so not the total abortion that most her considered it. But the absolute best best thing about S2 is that it introduced me to the glory that is Black Mountain (the band). Soooo good.

Scoot McNairy is signed on for Season 3.
His role in Halt and Catch Fire is one of my favs in the last few years.
He was also pretty great in Godless.

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.
