TV: HBO: Perry Mason

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 love a good L.A. noir story, but I'd watch this for the cast alone.

I'm through the first three episodes. It's OK, if nothing especially original. I did pause the third episode about ten times, which is never a good sign

I actually think it's gotten a lot better. The last two episodes were very well done.

In the third episode of the first season. Enjoying it. What a cast! Pulpy noir is right up my alley. I’m actually interested in starting the novels.
