It does seem like Cinemax is moving in a prestige direction, given that Strike Back and Banshee are ending. It's not unwelcome. Though I do wish they'd pick up something just a little less glacial than The Knick, which I like fine but don't love.

Episodes 6 or 7 might be good, if you don't mind being a little confused. 7 in particular has a structure that demonstrates what the show's capable of in a way the first few episodes don't. But then I started with episode 3 of season 2, so maybe I'm not the best person to answer this. I agree with @SludgeVohaul that…

"Winchester and Stapleton as Apollo and Midnighter"

I was pretty indifferent to LaBoeuf until I read this interview, which left me charmed in spite of myself and made me think he has comparatively cogent aims in what he does. http://www.dazeddigital.com…

Mine too. And Tripper still gets quite a few spins from me.

Man, Arnett is fantastic. Just rewatching "Yesterdayland"—the way he plays Bojack going into paroxysms after sleeping with Wanda is absolute gold. "Is that normal? Am I normal? What is happening to me?" "Fully clothed, sober, in daylight hours!" "Oh god. It's coming. I can't stop it. Do—you—want—to—go—to—Disneyland?!"

Man, I would have loved "Cruise Line Is It Anyway."

That's a good way of putting it (and why I didn't put Penny on that second list).

That's fair. Though I don't think Bojack's so willing to delude himself that it'd actually feel like one; hence numbness, not triumph.

Terrible as this is once you see this episode, Bojack himself is, strangely enough, my favorite character on the show. (Of course, much of that has to do with the great work Will Arnett does in the role.) It’s completely fucked what he does to Maddie, Penny, and Charlotte here. Still, still, I understand that selfish…

Interesting read. I got more indifference or numbness than triumph off that ride, especially with those shots of time passing, weather changing. There is indeed a coolness, but it feels to me a hollow kind, the kind you assume to cover emptiness.

A lot of really fun line readings this episode. Loved the half-laugh Tompkins does at the end of "And then I gotta take my suit off?"

Definitely felt that twinge watching Wanda jump to open the door to just a delivery guy and Todd look at the empty seats, but all the same, seeing Bojack pull up at Charlotte's hit me hard; it's doomed, but it's lovely. And all those moments were so beautifully scored.

So that's how you pronounce "Quinto"?

Especially relative to things like Breaking Bad and Community, which were so widely talked about.

"People don't want articles about that! They want lifehacks!"

The news segments on this show are always fantastic.

Limitless is fun just watching Bradley Cooper coast on charm the way Ryan Reynolds wishes he could do.

I do. I know it's weird.

Lee Pace is so frustrating in this role sometimes. I mean, I get that he's not given the easiest material. But watching him play Joe's reaction to Wheeler's suggestion of a sitdown, for example, so damn broadly made me cringe. Conversely, Scoot McNairy's performance as Gordon is what, I feel, saves a character that at…
