Listen to your gut

He's the best part. Of S1. Unfortunately...

Maybe he'll get better in S2. But so far they've really missed with his character.

It’s only been two episodes

And I've only seen one of them!

But man what a bummer.

The second episode has him closer to his season one maverick style.

We watched the first two eps of season 2, and I’m running into that problem where I now hate every character. The whole dinner scene at Cory’s hotel room was painful.

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.

Some really great plotting and exploration of the subtleties of the MeToo movement. Loved the scene with Carrell meeting with Martin Short; then the interview with Carrell’s accuser; then the private interview between the producer and the investigator where she doesn’t pin anything on Carrell; the in-bed scene between Nestor Carbonell and the PA, where they discuss sexual power dynamics; then finally Witherspoon and Aniston facing off with Witherspoon saying “did you know?”

Within a couple episodes, they explore multiple layers of the issue without ever getting preaching, not without sacrificing the pace and plotting of what is essentially a TV network drama. Really great writing here.
