New Showtime series from Michel Gondry starring Jim Carrey. Really curious about this one.

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.

Caught the first ten minutes of an edited version on Youtube and hadn't even heard of this. Finally watched the full first episode last night and really enjoyed it.
Really good cast with Catherine Keener and Judy Greer. Also, where the hell has Frank Langella been? An underrated jerk character for what, 30 years now? More importantly obviously is (hopefully) a reemergence of Jim Carrey. I forgot how good and sympathetic he could be while still being hilarious. Had a couple laugh out loud comedy moments.

Sadly, the best parts of the thread were lost to time. And overmoderation.
