    I wanted to like this show, ejected after 6 episodes. The plot plodded too long, the characters weren’t like-able. Interesting concept, poorly executed. 

    Felt the same way. Bolted after 5.

    The author of The Empire of Summer Moon S.C. Gwynne is featured in the Comancheria episode. I wonder what they cut because it’s a pretty mild interview for Gwynne. Of course, the History Channel dug up some distant relative of Quannah Parker to balance Gwynne. 
     

    Is the Comanche were a noble people really a PR campaign now? Because, Jesus Johnny. 

    I noticed how they left out some key information of the San Antonio massacre of 1840.

    Thief on the Criterion Channel. Honestly shocked I never saw it before since it's both a Michael Mann film and a James Caan film. Loved it. No one can make gritty streets look awesome like Michael Mann. 

    Love the score in this movie.

    i don't like mindy's writing, i love it. her shows have been hit or miss for me though.

    i love mindy project and have done multiple rewatches. obviously her office episodes are mostly classics. champions was god awful. enjoyed late night and sex lives. didn't watch never have i ever but heard good things.

    this show just seems beneath her. a lot of lazy, tropey bits, unfinished storylines, inconsistent character arcs and plots. it's like 10 people each wrote 1 script at the same time and turned them in without checking with each other. also most of the characters are terrible people but all in pretty much the same way - i get it, they're siblings, that can happen - but probably shouldn't in a tv show. 

    also it somehow made me dislike drew tarver, which i didn't think was possible.

    and this is without getting into the impossible challenges of writing a show involving professional sports. i won't judge her for those mistakes, as everyone makes them. just let me know when you're done.

    morons. i've got morons on my team.

    Ok, Percy Garris. LOL!

    sounds like a lot of you enjoyed the first one.

    i've only seen a few minutes of the first movie. in one scene, affleck had an accent. in another scene, he did not have an accent. i thought this trailer might clear up the mystery, but it did not.

    were there some scenes in the first movie where he faked an accent?

    Hmm...don't remember the accent variance, I just know the character has severe OCD. Maybe that's it.

    Anyone else watching The Pitt? I'm liking it a lot, but that's cause I was a fan of ER back in the day. I think it was originally supposed to be a continuation of ER with Wyle as an older Carter, but the Crichton estate wasn't down unless they got credits or royalties, I don't know, some real greaseball shit. Either way, entertaining show.

    3 episodes in. Really enjoying it.

    I like $IBRX. Heavily shorted and major insider ownership.

    Has anyone here ever attended a live taping of Kill Tony? I was trying to figure out how to get tickets and saw the next ones in January are listed as having a limited presale, with warnings about buying from 3rd party vendors. I can't find when the tickets will actually go on sale. Any guidance is appreciated.

    Another weird criticism but he should dial back the profanity. Specifically the f-bombs. I’m a huge fan of the word fuck, it’s irreplaceable in certain situations, but when it’s every other word it cheapens what could be pretty effective dialog.

    Pure lazy writing, IMO. All of his shows have this in it, but this one is definitely over-the-top.
