pricing model still ridiculous but two episodes in and it's SO GOOD.
love the s1 character callbacks

need to see the new ones today!

marcos, Thursday, 5 February 2015 16:57 (nine years ago) link

i agree that vimeo's experient might not be the best but if you think of $8 as entry fee to all 19 episodes its a bargain at $0.42 per episode

gr8080, Thursday, 5 February 2015 16:57 (nine years ago) link

Sufjan, Esme and Sabrina - back to previous heights.

Ruth, Geiger, Genghis had me worried (especially Genghis).

the gabhal cabal (Bob Six), Thursday, 5 February 2015 22:01 (nine years ago) link

sabrina was pretty great, even if the way it bucked the established format sorta rubbed me the wrong way, (not to mention giving me a near panic attack)

sufjan was a good setup but kinda took too long to deliver (heh no pun intended) dude's shirt game has me jealous.

esme was fantastic

gr8080, Friday, 6 February 2015 01:03 (nine years ago) link

dude i've been waiting fifteen fucking years for a ferret ok i don't care what the fuck you think

gr8080, Friday, 6 February 2015 01:04 (nine years ago) link

can't really tell if kabir's doing ok or not. :-/

gr8080, Friday, 6 February 2015 01:42 (nine years ago) link

Ruth >> Sabrina > Esme >> Sufjan >>>> Genghis >>>>>> Geiger

gr8080, Friday, 6 February 2015 01:56 (nine years ago) link

Where is Esme working at the beginning of that episode? Is it supposed to be a hostess bar or similar?

the gabhal cabal (Bob Six), Friday, 6 February 2015 08:17 (nine years ago) link

Also:

didn't really expect this show to have me thinkin bout gender issues

the gabhal cabal (Bob Six), Friday, 6 February 2015 08:22 (nine years ago) link

that's "the asshole" running the weedspot, isn't it?

the plight of y0landa (forksclovetofu), Friday, 6 February 2015 08:23 (nine years ago) link

Where is Esme working at the beginning of that episode? Is it supposed to be a hostess bar or similar?

it's the headquarters for the all-female weed delivery service she works for

that's "the asshole" running the weedspot, isn't it?

don't think so

gr8080, Friday, 6 February 2015 12:41 (nine years ago) link

Ah...Thx.

the gabhal cabal (Bob Six), Friday, 6 February 2015 12:56 (nine years ago) link

i hope we catch a glimpse of Orly life-coaching in a future episode

gr8080, Friday, 6 February 2015 12:58 (nine years ago) link

haha these were great

marcos, Friday, 6 February 2015 20:30 (nine years ago) link

chad is such a great fuckin character, too real, all these people are too real

marcos, Friday, 6 February 2015 20:31 (nine years ago) link

esme was good but orly was a little over the top imo though

marcos, Friday, 6 February 2015 20:31 (nine years ago) link

yea otm, ruth was pretty good but yea the first three of s2 had me a little worried too. geiger was really bad

marcos, Friday, 6 February 2015 20:33 (nine years ago) link

i didn't think geiger was bad, but it was in the same style as qasim, which is an outlier from the general tone that isn't as enjoyable to me

karl...arlk...rlka...lkar..., Friday, 6 February 2015 20:47 (nine years ago) link

yeah but where Qasim slowly spun a beautifully complex riddle, holding out on the (hilarious and horrifying) answer until the bitter end, Geiger just kind of plopped down a hacky premise at the top and kicked it around until it abruptly ran out of steam

nb i watched Geiger again and i like it now, its just def in my lower-tier HM episodes

gr8080, Friday, 6 February 2015 21:02 (nine years ago) link

wkiw shroom dealer that's friends with the weed dealer guy

marcos, Friday, 6 February 2015 22:20 (nine years ago) link

one for fun two for woo

johnny crunch, Friday, 6 February 2015 22:25 (nine years ago) link

mushroom dealer's australian accent was confusing because it was somehow similar to her long island accent in orange is the new black.

mizzell, Friday, 6 February 2015 22:33 (nine years ago) link

man i want some shrooms, that would be a good time. probably been 15 years since i last did shrooms

marcos, Friday, 6 February 2015 22:34 (nine years ago) link

three for wheeeeeeee

the plight of y0landa (forksclovetofu), Friday, 6 February 2015 22:44 (nine years ago) link

i love how the first time* the show ventures in to actual drug humor its shrooms and not weed

*maybe with a few exceptions now that i think about it, ruth's freakout in bradd pitts

forks are you high

gr8080, Saturday, 7 February 2015 00:07 (nine years ago) link

Just started watching this. Not a smoker, never been a smoker, but this works brilliantly as both parody and propaganda, so thumbs up.

Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 7 February 2015 14:31 (nine years ago) link

loved these

lake house episode a little too close to comfort for me i think

the extended universe they're creating is so great

max, Saturday, 7 February 2015 16:47 (nine years ago) link

Haven't watched the second season yet but wanted to pop in and say me and stevie D got high and watched all of season 1 in one go =0

co-sign

gr8080, Saturday, 7 February 2015 17:10 (nine years ago) link

not totally surprised that most of chad's friends are just as obnoxious as he is

marcos, Saturday, 7 February 2015 17:46 (nine years ago) link

kabir seems all right though

marcos, Saturday, 7 February 2015 17:47 (nine years ago) link

also lol does anyone smoke as much weed in the whole series as the couple in sufjan? they are doing bong rips and passing joints nonstop

marcos, Saturday, 7 February 2015 17:52 (nine years ago) link

basically two of the most comfortable people who have ever existed

gr8080, Saturday, 7 February 2015 17:54 (nine years ago) link

lol yes

marcos, Saturday, 7 February 2015 17:54 (nine years ago) link

lol i am just now recalling that when i was telling friends abt a portugal trip i was planing last year, one gave me the contact info for her friend's intentional community and said i should pay them a visit.

gr8080, Saturday, 7 February 2015 17:59 (nine years ago) link
