Daulerio comes across as the most smug, callous, new media douche bro in his deposition. Good riddance.

I ended up liking Flaked for the most part and powered through it last weekend. It's a good "background" show, i.e., I can have it on while I'm doing stuff on my laptop, or other little tasks around my place at not feel like I need to be paying complete attention. Also, I work near Abbot-Kinney in Venice, live in

In a way, I feel like this whole first season is just a really long-winded prologue to what could be a potentially very good second season now that the plot is in gear, and characters are better defined, etc.

Yeah, I feel like the episodes are two to three rewrites away from being ready and consequently lack the necessary dimension. Even as the plot picks up later on, the episodes still feel underwritten and a little too "naturalistic". But I ended up enjoying them.

Between this and Love is Netflix trying to corner the market on low stakes LA dramadies? Maybe they can pilfer Togetherness from HBO…

Counterpoint: You are.

Own: "Forever In Blue Jeans" by Neil Diamond, complete with "This is a song about the time I killed a drifter to get an erection" intro.

"Ha ha ha!"

Does anyone know why Scott Patterson and Lauren Graham don't like each other? Is it just one of them things, or did something happen? Interesting that they would have great chemistry on the show, but apparently couldn't stand each other off of it.

I just started reading Toobin's book, which is excellent BTW, and he writes that the Santa Monica Courthouse was borderline uninhabitable due to the Northridge quake a few months before the trial. Besides for that, it was ill-eqquipped to handle a trial of this size. Hence it being in DTLA. They couldn't have held it

"I'm not, like, an official person." God, that line reading…

Lawsuits from former bandmates?

I really liked the way Singleton's camera would linger over the video monitors in the courtroom to remind us, the viewer, of the both the omnipresence of that tableau on our TVs, and also remind us of the video aesthetic from that era. Watching Gooding, Vance, etc. on the old TV monitors made them feel that much more

The first few episodes of this show were amazing. And then it sort of backslid into a more typical sitcom. There's no way in hell it would have ever been produced, but I feel like this concept would have worked better as a trilogy of films where the first ends with Schaal's character's arrival, the second deals with

I think a lot of it has to do with where you live, your social cohorts, career prospects, etc. As a 36-year old Angeleno, this show doesn't necessarily depict my life, but I do know a lot of people here in LA that live like this. It's an easy city to spend a suspended 20s-style existence in where you can be more

I saw it. On a first date (and only) date. Great cast, but what a terrible, terrible film. I hate the whole "nice guy is too polite to ditch someone/tell them to fuck off, and thus gets into increasing trouble" trope. Jemaine was funny, though.

Love this show. Watching it was like taking a little noir vacation to a city you'd never visit in real life. As others have mentioned, I miss the old A&E. You could always count on a solid afternoon of television. I used to enjoy catching Northern Exposure reruns after school, or sometimes in the morning, along with La

Was Baldwin getting paid by the "Charles"?

So you only hang out with Goldie Hawn?
