    Just bring back Mac and Woody. I'd watch 20 seasons of that shit.

    I don't think, even they would be able to save this season. It's just a nonsensical mess. Colin Farrell is actually very, very good in it. McAdams is passable and Kitch is doing his damndest to save his scenes.

    Vince Vaughn (who I thought might be a good match for this show), is saddled with some awful material to work with. I think he's going to get the brunt of the criticism for this season, but I don't think it's really his fault.

    Well, it's over. Strange, this show went from one of the most talked about television events in quite some time, to one nobody gives a shit about. Disappointing.

    I finished the second season today. It was OK, but naturally a letdown after the excellent opening season. It seemed that since they couldn't match the intensity of the first season, they added more dark sides to the characters and much more violence. The actors were good but the plot tried to be too clever and ended up as a mess

    It was enjoyable enough for me I liked Voughn as Frank and I hated how stupidly Farrel's character went at the end.
