Jack seems resigned to the fact that he'll go to prison after this is all over or was that just a show put on for the chief of staff? My guess is that after he stops Lady Stark he'll go back to his vigilantism and continue taking down drug and human traffic rings singlehandedly. Maybe the chief of staff will get blown…

She *was* arching her eyebrow in a villainy manner.

Misandry isn't much of a problem. As Louis CK pointed out women only got the vote in the U.S. in 1920, 84 years ago.

Often people are naive about how real world businesses run. They paint happy stories about how economies of scale provide us with a prosperous society. They avoid talking about politics because it's divisive.

Obviously not all advertising is bad. But don't you hate it when there like a commercial for Taco Bell on TV and you know you don't need Taco Bell and that it isn't good for you but for some reason after watching the commercial, you crave it?

Not you again. Are you trolling me? I can never tell. Granted it's pretty difficult to tell sometimes.

I don't strongly disagree you with and see the points you're making. Yeah the romance would probably seem forced since he's such a retard. But Gregory is even more of a retard. If she married Richard she probably wouldn't have to work again if his company is such an epic game changer. She did put 10 percent of her…

I thought she was character in her own right. She played Richard into turning down Gavin's money and admitted it to him. She wasn't honest about the bidding war and the motivations of the rival billionaires. But as I said before I have mixed feelings on the pairing.

I have mixed feeling on this. On the hand they both seem like decent people in the weird, cutthroat world of Silicon Valley. So they have that in common.

And Breaking Bad had Giancarlo Giuseppe Alessandro Esposito!

Podrick Payne: "Mostly I just served him wine."

Aldis Hodge was on Turn. He also had a small appearance in The Walking Dead. We need more Hodge.

It will be interesting to see if the next two episodes suck or if the show sucks and whether AMC or the creators ever explain why they only released the pilot. I really enjoyed the pilot (and liked the opening credit sequence, music, actors, etc.) and am curious where they will take the show.

Plus he had a few drinks beforehand against Tyrion's advice.

Well if you hadn't noticed, capitalism won. China is hypercapitalist now (just witness its smog-filled skies and multiplying millionaires and billionaires.)

What bugs me is that you claim to be "proudly opposed to the zeitgeist" as if your ideas are somehow insurgent when nothing could be further from the truth.

Come on, as far as the Internet goes, that wasn't "personal" at all. Your original comment was pretty much the definition of "corporate shill." If the shoe fits… own it. I would stay away from discussing politics if you're going to be this touchy and sensitive but then you won't move the zeitgeist much and leave the…

Agree with you about the general sense of the pilot.

Well you did accuse me of being under the spell of a lame Zeitgest.

The Zeitgeist is divided, like the country. Plenty of corporate shills share your opinions. And there's a good reason too, their paychecks depend upon it.
