It was like during the Super Bowl, when some ads had very, very general "hey, let's all be good people" messages and Trump supporters were shitting their pants.

It might have been my TV (there are some impossible to fix smoothing issues) but something about the Get Down felt… cheap? I dunno, it's hard to pinpoint, but something in the cinematography felt off for both episodes I watched. I especially remember a scene where Jimmy Smits was at a graffiti park or something and a…

Don't forget that this is on the same network that renewed Baskets. I also like to think that FX knows this show will find its audience when it's streaming in the off-season.

Well this episode has made it very clear why Aubrey Plaza has had such a hard time promoting this show on talk shows. There's really no good way to explain her character without giving big reveals away. And the hosts always insist on bringing up the story of how her character was a middle aged man "before she was…

Yeah, Brian Singer deserves credit for getting the whole thing off the ground, but he's clearly the worst part of the X-family right now. I'm still skeptical, but I think Fox is learning the right lessons from Deadpool. People didn't respond to "LOL META HUMOR AND VULGARITY AND VIOLENCE", they responded to a work of…

Yeah, it seemed like the thing that was killing them the most was coordinating guest availability with host availability AND studio space availability. Now that it's just at Mitch's, they might have an easier time popping episodes off when they are able to.

I read the news about the showrunner change on Divorce and was wondering about Tom's job there. I wonder if Hayes is still writing.

They just bounce off each other so seamlessly and effortlessly. It's like watching one brain with two mouths.

Gordon Ramsay being in love with his cooking was one of my favorite gags in this episode.

I was glad to discover that Syd wasn't just an undercover mutant sent to Clockworks to recruit David. It would have undercut their entire romance/relationship. The fact that they're both broken people who have found purpose really makes their bond stronger.

Is this considered a Marvel TV show? I know technically they have a credit, but isn't this like the movies where this is more of a Fox show?

I think it's a simple case of creative freedom.
He started writing for someone else's show (Bones) and then went on to create two ABC network comedy/dramas (The Unusuals and My Generation).
It wasn't until FX that he was given the creative freedom to make Fargo and now Legion.

I can't support American Gods because it took Bryan Fuller away from Star Trek: Discovery. He was the only reason I had interest in that series, and now he's doing this dumb book that I didn't enjoy reading.

I don't really know how to prove this, but you're pretty much right about that. I know him (sorta, his mom and my mom are good friends) and I was told yesterday that at this point, he was pretty fatigued with the whole process.

I think they handled it better last season, where the overarching storylines took a back seat (for the most part) to the individual episodes.

I love when he brings it up at live shows and immediately calls out the people who laughed too fast.

Do you think it will be possible to just start season 2 without having seen any more than the pilot of season 1? I really don't feel like going though all 20 episodes or whatever ridiculous number CBS made them do.

This show was a passion project of his up until he died. And like what was already stated, he was set to play Turturro's character.

I mean that gave us Richard attempting to go down stairs 8 steps at a time to prove a point. That's worth it IMO.
