"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Robin Wright is fucking amazing in this show. I love her to death.

We are 2 eps from the end. I'm okay if you want to say (up to ep 3 without white font for a week, then up to ep 4, etc.)

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

How closely are they copying the original stories? Ian Richardson was absolutely chilling yet fascinating in his break-the-fourth-wall bits.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Anyone watching season 2 of House of Lies? I haven't started the second season, and seem to have Showtime for reasons I'm not clear on, so I thought maybe I could catch up and have a look--if you liked it last season, is this the same ride?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

ita, I love House of Lies, and, yes, S2 is the same as S1 with added hiding of Kriste Bell's pregnancy.

Okay, I will get back on the horse, with the addition of this odd legitimacy.

I added Showtime to my displayed channels list when they had a free weekend a little while back, and it stuck. I love new toys, especially when they come with Don Cheadle's ass.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Every time I see this, my scanning eye thinks there is a show written about my house. I mean, I would watch House of Liese, but that's only because I live it every day.

Does it involve Don Cheadle's butt? I don't mean to demean your life, but clearly if there's no Cheadle ass, it's worthless.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Does it involve Don Cheadle's butt? I don't mean to demean your life, but clearly if there's no Cheadle ass, it's worthless.

And if the answer is yes, I think we just found our next F2F location...

I'm not feeling the butt follow-through...

However, good lord, this Matt Damon episode is the Mottsiest stuff I've watched in EVER. I mean, I know it's make believe, but sheeit.
