I haven't yet, no. The wife wanted to take a break after Hill House. But we're both excited. I'm hoping we can dive in this weekend.

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 & I are through 5 episodes so far, probably finish tonight. When she said she was starting it I planned on doing something else, but decided to give it a minute, and oh boy. I was hooked right away. Great show.
