My friend Mark was raving about this back when it was just a web series.

Good guy. Super talented actor. Hasn't gotten that "break" yet. But he's handsome and funny and SUPER intelligent. For Christmas, his family has a tradition of designing puzzles for each other to solve and giving those as gifts in the morning. We've tried to collaborate on a few projects but they've all fallen through.

He did an outstanding short film called August Heat that I really wish I could have been a part of. But the timing never worked out.

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.

This one episode in particular has a real Edward Albee vibe. Amy Ryan is terrific.
Well you're dropping the right names, that's for sure.

Westworld. Not bad, but didn't seem like anything we haven't seen done to death before.

Finished A Young Doctor's Notebook. I really loved it. Totally unique in television that I've watched. Hilarious -- featuring several different comedy styles and blending them in fresh ways. Bloody. Horrific. Strange. Bold. Odd. Great performances. A mixture of styles and forms that shouldn't work as well as they do. Highly recommend it. And it's only 8 half hour episodes (over two seasons) long.

Started Easy on Netflix (new Joe Swanberg series). Guys... it's fucking brilliant. Exactly what I want television to be. Great storytelling. Superb acting. Full of theme and conflict. Honest in its exploration. Funny in all the right corners. Just outstanding.

The first two episodes of this season of Last Man on Earth. It's dumb, but entertaining.

Is the 2nd episode up already? The first episode took a dark turn pretty quick

Light but entertainingly enjoyable. Forte's done some good work especially.

I really enjoyed the Jon Hamm cameo. Surprising and hilarious.

Easy is fucking brilliant. Probably Swanberg's best work to date (that I've seen). Just outstanding television. Loved every episode.

Crisis in Six Scenes is pretty brutal so far.
