Whichever one has Jonathan lithgow, that’s the best season and it’s all useless after then

Really? That's S4, so maybe I'll give it until then.

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.

I don't understand this at all. I'm convinced you're watching the wrong show.

We bailed on it pretty early. I don't even really remember much about what I did see, which was maybe half of S1?

Even if we have different experiences with it, I think it's an important show and I'm happy that there are things about it that grip you and draw you in. That's super cool. And it must be weird watching it after having worked at an ad agency. That's got to be a very different experience.
