So, I watched this. Can't decide if I like it or not yet. It was late and I was tired, maybe not the right mindset for this type of show. Still seems promising. I will watch episode 2

We watched the first episode the night it aired, and DVR'd the rest up until now. Planned on watching one last night and ended up watching all 3 episodes we had, and really enjoy this show. There are some obvious comparisons to House of Cards, especially in the Robbins/Gugino dynamic, but in a good way. It's a lot of fun to watch.

No, I am, I just forget about the thread. I love this show. You and I have similar tastes in TV, Skitch.

:luv:

It's a smart comedy with a story line I am actually invested in. Not laugh out loud funny like Silicon Valley, but very enjoyable and I always find myself being upset that an episode is over.

I am still watching this as well. I really like where it's going - and does have some pretty damn funny moments. Sure feels like it will not end well for any of the main characters. I guess the series title does certainly imply this...

He's okay in this, but I think he's probably the weakest character.

They really have. Tim Robbins is absolutely killing it.

I know, right? The lack of buzz this seems to be getting is astonishing.
