May 15May 15 Dave Franco was a little over the top but he don’t give a fuck because he gets to go home to Alison
May 15May 15 Bryan Cranston gave the "way too fucked up" performance of a lifetime. Scarily convincing. My wife goes to Cinemacon every year for work. I've been a few times. The Kool Aid Man stunt shit was hilarious and accurate. Studio bigwigs do performative stunts like that for their presentations.
May 15May 15 Watching "For Your Friends and Neighbors" now but almost caught up. This is next in the queue.
May 16May 16 Matthew Belloni’s podcast is very good. I’m glad he’s getting some sort of recognition. Rita Pearlman has aged about 5 minutes since Cheers. I know she’s done some voice acting, but she looks great, relatively, given her age.

May 16May 16 Such an enjoyable show. And this last ep was a perfect time to throw in “to be continued” before the finale. The golden globes ep is probably my favorite, but it’s all been really fun to watch (eps 3 and 4 were a bit weaker comparatively). Glad it’s renewed for season 2.
May 18May 18 Love the show but Rogan is so manic it’s exhausting. Golden Globes was classic and CinemaCon pt 2 promises greatness.

Seth Rogan's stupid little nervous laugh that permeates every single performance he ever gives bugs the shit out of me. Thankfully, the rest of this show is good enough to overcome it.
May 19May 19 i will say that the little things that annoy me about rogan are similar to the two preceding posts but the weekly releases instead of binging takes that edge off completely for me. show has been hilarious imo. and, of course, i'd like to thank sal sapperstein.
May 21May 21 I thought this got better as the season went on. Finale was wild. My only complaint would be how short it was.
May 22May 22 Cranston probably needs an Emmy or a Golden Globe for that. Speaking of golden globes, Kathryn Hahn.

The onslaught of everyone screaming seemed heightened in the last few episodes, or it was that way the entire show and it just got fatiguing to me. I enjoyed the first few episodes but the last few were annoying, other than watching Cranston knock it out of the park as usual.
May 23May 23 Cranston in the final episode belongs in some sort of hall of fame. Him sliding around the stage at the end like a fucking marionette had me in tears

Neeson will be fine, but Cranston is pretty great at physical humor like that.
May 23May 23 The old style Hollywood buffet! ready for season 2. Will rewatch s1 as I’m sure I missed much
May 29May 29 Loved the final 2. Matt bringing up Summer School as a classic made me fist pump. Then Quinn comes through with Weekend at Bernie's. The best little thing that killed me was the assistant snorting Sal's coke and then smiling really big. Zoe Kravitz was great. If you've never seen it, she was really good in the High Fidelity series on Hulu.
June 3Jun 3 Seth Rogen telling stories about his Sony days is pretty, pretty good. Edited June 3Jun 3 by billfromlaketravis

I fucking lost my shit when they went down to Quinn’s office to get her take on the “casting” and she said she never really thought of Kool-Aid as a “black person’s drink.” They all sighed with relief and then violently recoiled when she said it was instead more of a “poor person’s drink.” Outfuckingstanding.

Anyway, we finished this last night and it was pretty goddamn funny. Loved the show.
June 27Jun 27 Several random thoughts. CinemaCon was greatness. I love how they followed the trail of nacho cheese and how Quinn kept tasting gross things. And how Griffin is 82, lol. And the "old-school Hollywood buffet." The wardrobe choices are interesting. I kept waiting for someone in the show to mention Maya's clothes. And Quinn dresses like Mary Tyler Moore in The Mary Tyler Moore Show. I have never found Seth Rogen or Ike Barinholtz attractive until this show but whatever they're doing is working for me. The finale was awesome. Even though everyone was tripping balls, the word I kept thinking at the very end was "wholesome". It was sweet how Matt thanked everyone onstage and then got everyone to cheer, even though that part was to cover for Griffin. He looked so genuinely happy.
June 28Jun 28 Let’s give Ike his flowers. No idea how this guy is already 48 and hasn’t had a bigger career. - Destroyed in The Studio. - One of the few bright spots in an unremarkable Eastbound season. - Killed in Blockers. - Great sidekick in many films, but most notably Neighbors. Mazel Tov you crazy son of a bitch!

Thankfully, the rest of this show is good enough to overcome it. I'm trying to get into this, but man it's tough. The first couple of episodes were great--sincere dude way over his skis trying to do good but killing off Scorsese's movie--then it just devolved into Seth Rogan running around as his incredibly insecure, awkwardly desperate self in the most unlikeable ways possible with one of his buds popping in for a cameo of the week. Edited July 25Jul 25 by aggie08
September 15Sep 15 I usually don't like shows/movies about Hollywood because I hate navel gazing, but the premiere with Scorsese is amazing. When he said he wanted to do a biopic of Jim Jones, I was in tears laughing. And The Oner was greatness.

Mazel Tov you crazy son of a bitch! obviously you never watched the mindy project, which was a great show (for 2-3 seasons). that's where i first saw/appreciated him.
September 15Sep 15 I'll watch soon enough but I'm angry this chunky stoner stole all the Emmys from Canada's sweetheart, Nathan Fielder.
September 16Sep 16 Ike mentioned in some interview that Hahn improvised one of the best one-liners of the season (Ep 1). -- OK, Steven "Buskemi" is absolutely the worst case "skenario". -- You can see Ike almost break when she dropped that. Hahn is a national treasure. Edited September 16Sep 16 by SizzleChest
September 16Sep 16 Hahn should have won for best supporting actress. The HBO cuteness in entering Einbinder in the supporting actress category would make FX blush. She has more scenes than Jean Smart. Glad the show cleaned in almost every other category. No studio values awards more than Apple. Probably cliches Seth and Evan a blank check to do as many seasons as they want.
September 16Sep 16 so this show seems like it's pretty good! i need something smart and light and fun rn. was thinking of doing my first Schitt's Creek rewatch but maybe i'll start this.
