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.

We stopped somewhere in season three. I enjoyed the first season but the second season was tiresome (especially the epigenetics/flashback plot) and by the third it was clear that the show was never going to really address the class based narcissism which animated so many of the characters. It wasn't a bad show but it stopped being interesting pretty quickly

really? her character or her? So far they seem super confortable on being super shitty human beings. And Jill Holloway seems so in love of her characters.
