      “Crashing” on HBO is great. I love seeing all the comedians as themselves. Artie Langes true to life portrayal of himself and his addiction is potent. But the show is funny as balls

      Maybe so. Maybe not

        Yeah; 2 Dope Queens, Divorce and Crashing makes for a good weekend of comedy.

          My wife had never watched Seinfeld…can you believe that? (Or Sopranos for that matter) si we're up to season 5. The gags hold up well after more than 20 years. Kramer still kills me.

                As a conscious decision or just not been on your radar? I'm the same with Game of Thrones though. Have no desire whatsoever to watch.

                  I'm just not much of a tv guy for the past 10yrs or so… I've been out of the state's for about that long, so I kinda just catch whatever is on when it's on.

                  (I also have an aversion to being a part of "the crowd"... )

                    Sopranos is pretty good, although I admit my memories of the show are colored by the fact that I was living in New Jersey for three of its seasons, so it felt very accurate in replicating that environment.  I don't know if I'd like it as much without that connection.

                    The popularity of Seinfeld mystifies me.  I've tried to watch it, but it's just not funny.

                        Currently watching Ash vs Evil Dead. Silly slapstick horror but I like Bruce Campbell and it is kinda funny. The wood hand kills me  😃

                        @gaseousclay If you like this sort of thing (like I do), then if you haven't already seen it, see if you can find "Todd and the Book of Pure Evil" , done 2 series back in 2010. Think ash v evil dead/buffy the vamp slayer. I found it recently, not much makes me laugh out loud but some of this was hilarious.

                            Seinfeld is just good fun. It’s quite dated at this point but still charming.( I’d argue that Curb is probably the better show, though.)

                              See I could never get into Preacher, I loved the comic book but the TV show was extremely slow imo.

                              @spitfiredealer:

                              I couldn’t get on with Preacher either. Mrs loved it, but not for me.

                              Thanks for the words of caution. As a result I lowered expectations and wasn’t as bothered as I might have been by the lull that occurs in episodes 3-5.

                              The start of ep.6 (battle with the seraphim) was fantastic though. Tarantino-like levels of cinematic genius. It’s frustratingly slow at times, no doubt. But when it’s good, it’s grand.

                                It is dated, but it's where Larry David really got his chops. It's stupid, sometimes absurdist (which I love) and has strong well played characters. George's parents, Kramer, Newman…all are absurd, but still funny. It really was a tv trailblazer in the earlier 90s and imo changed the sitcom format forever (for better or worse we'd never have had Friends without Seinfield). On top of the Jerry is a legendary stand up that most stand ups cite as massively influential.

                                I agree that Curb holds up better now, but for a capsule of 90s life (check out all the Nike tennis shoes!) It is darn good.

                                    Can’t stand Seinfield and never could. Every single one of the characters is a steaming turd of a human being. Makes me want to throw the telly out the window when it comes on.

                                    That’s why Curb is better. David is a complete A-hole, but everyone else in the show knows it.

                                      Read all the comic books myself. So far it’s one of the better adaptions for me. I find the production values satisfactory, but the story telling is a little sedate.

                                            I'm currently downloading s01 and 02 of INTELLIGENCE (Canada)... Finally found a 720p rip w/ subs... One of the best series ever made...
