I should point out that I loooooooooooove the opening sequences of both season 1 and 2. If you could give an emmy for just that alone, I'd pay them now.
They do! I believe it won last year.............

Bojack Horseman Season 2 comes out on Friday. Do yourself a favour and give season 1 a shot if you have netflix. Starts off a little bit like generic adult swim comedy, but hits it's stride and becomes something else, that I can't quite describe but really enjoy.
Mostly. Starts switching from bog standard adult swim comedy to the different stuff around episode 5, I think that's when they visit Dianes family.
The voice acting cast is a big part of the shows appeal but it didn't hit its stride till about 1/3rd to a 1/2 through season 1. Watched the first few episodes of Season 2, and it's not quite hit the same highs yet, but it's off to a much better than the opening of Season 1.
Fair enough. It's not to everyones tastes obviously, great variance in Critics opinions backs that up.
Mad Men That Coke ad to close.. Oh man, that takes me back. We were way too poor to buy that shit then though. Now here we are in 2009 and it's cheaper than fuckin' milk. So was the ad Draper's?
Yes: why else place it there straight after the meditative epiphanous smiling "ding"? The fridge dream from the hippie help circle, the coloured shit in the clerk chicks hair, the hippie vibe of the retreat, all in the ad.
No: Draper's Californian Kerouac thing, bolting Mccann, too far distanced himself from that world, his cleansing hippie brain enema has seen him wash his hands of that world. Man.
I'm going Yes.

Loving this one: Silicon Valley.
Computer nerds. Brutal language. Top shit.
What did you think about the 2nd season of Silicon Valley?
Watching this season of True Detective as a body of work - it's mighty excellent.....
Haters gonna hate.
Episode 7 answered a lot of my prayers. Finally the story is moving and they are focusing in on particulars.
I reckon the next 3 episodes are going to be great.
