xp - charlie sheen's mannerisms aren't funny though, and this show has been full of lazy cliches since ep1 anyway

don johnson was painful imo, having the main character's parent(s) show up and be some older TV icon doing an impression of the main character is one of the laziest sitcom cliches.
This majorly otm. I really enjoyed the last episode though, actually quite affecting.

man this show was so much better in the last episode with the old awesome supporting cast back. big mistake to ditch them for this season.

I haven't read this thread because I've only seen one ep of the new season. So behind but pretty psyched to catch up this weekend.

idk
there's funny shit in every ep, but it took me a while to <3 the first season. by the end i was hooked. but the second series is a patchier.
so watch the first ep!

I did...it was good, but didn't blow me away. Too much slo-mo with loud music! I liked enough to keep watching though. Also I have learned not to judge first episodes too harshly.

OK so I am already almost done watching season two and I like this! My wife likes it too even after I told her she probably wouldn't. So...good job, ILX!
What else should I watch now? Community?

That Trentemoller tune is great too. I sort of like the Black Keys thing too, is that bad? HBO shows love the Black Keys!

I really like the guy who plays the baseball team owner, sorry can't remember his name. The rich guy. It's a really strange performance.

yeah watching Observe And Report recently i realized that Jody Hill is basically from the Wes Anderson school of "check out this sweet montage set to a gem from my record collection every 15 minutes"
― some dude, Friday, 17 December 2010 03:14 (thirteen years ago) link
The first episode had like four or five of those though! It did calm down a bit, plus the music is all pretty great. Oogum Boogum in the ep I'm watching right now. I looked for a YouTube of the Trentemoller song so I could hear it again and ALL the comments are like "Kenny Fucking Powers"!

Agree with some dude, Observe and Report was over the top with that; Eastbound and Down does it much better.

I can't remember if they did much slomo w/music in season 1 but it was p.noticeable throughout season 2

that was maybe my no.1 beef with observe and report - aside from it being unfunny - it was just a nonstop barrage of musical montages. by the end of the movie i was practically seething whenever the next montage started... its so fuckin narcissistic cuz hes just showing off his gd ipod, not trying to entertain us

Some blog put together a soundtrack for season one a while back, think it's gone now though. Was surprised to find out that the sad organ music that plays throughout is a Tindersticks track, assumed it was an original.

Always find myself rewatching this show with everyone I know who hasn't seen it
Like, 4 times already--and I was pretty late getting into it myself
2nd season better than first btw
