I loved the earlier series. Starting the new one tomorrow. Having established that the wife doesn't want to watch it, it'll be my daytime show while the baby is  sleeping and she's at work (apparently this is "laundry-time" but that's some weird viking concept and it doesn't apply to me, I'm sure).

Larry David is a genius.

He certainly is, if this season keeps up it's current quality it surpass my love for Seinfeld.

[Matty123]

I think you’re on point there. It might be better than Seinfeld. He’s all the characters in one.

I'm not super wowed by the latest season of Curb, but since season 6, I always feel underwhelmed at first but then love them as I revisit them. I don't think it will ever top Seinfeld for me, but Curb is as close as it gets.  Not many people can produce a consistent and relevant show over the course of 17 years.

Any of you (UK people especially) ever watch that old show Keeping Up Appearances?

THE DEUCE is getting better and better… Ep 1x07 was the best one so far... Show has its own vibe and rhytmn and I love that...

I just caught up on The Deuce, and I agree 100%. If you're not watching this, yet, and can get HBO, do it!

^ It’s really great tv. I like that David Simon’s fingerprints are all over it. The Wire pops up all over, from the casting they use to some of the same storytelling techniques. And there was a concrete reference in ep.7 (property registry conversation) that made me giggle. At the same time it’s a unique show. Really immersive.

I tried watching the deuce. Couldn’t get into it. I didn’t like Vinyl either. My thoughts are that I know there was coke and hookers And porn in the 70’s USA … Next please.

I don't think you're the only one when it comes to Vinyl.

Looking forward to it! Tbh I’m a bit nervous as Se.1 was so much fun that I’m worried Se.2 won’t measure up.

If it's good: great!.. If not: we still have season 1… 

GEN KILL was great, yeah...

Any TREME fans here?.. I know the show was SSSLLOOOOOWWWWWW but it was pretty damn great now and then...

[Matty123]

Yeah I was a fan of treme big time
