Naturally, the Show Box app on my phone is having technical difficulties. Just when I wanna get caught up with this farce. Is there a similar gangsta app for Android out there?

Until then, here's a pic of me outside of band practice:

This show is BSTV. Six episodes of bull shit so far. Frank giving life lessons to the young boy who lost hi father. Ray giving his son advice. NONE OF IT HAS TO DO WITH CASPER. oh and then this guy in McAdams memory ....

I was fucking dying of laughter at this scene. This almost had my convinced that Pizzilato One was truly trolling on a deep level. I wish he was actually that funny.

I recently learned a new term while reading about this mess. Hatewatch. Apparently people find TD II so profoundly bad they hatewatch it just to see shit like Ana purging herself from the MDMA spritz. Hey Ana! That doesn't work. That spray went directly into your bloodstream, do not pass the GI Tract. Or Vaughn bloviating with the kid. And, tell me again, who was the kid's dad?  Eesh.  Three of the many simpleton artistic gaffes in this high minded (?) crapfest.  Also learned that the whole movie set scene a few episodes back was Pizzolatto's fuck you to Fukunaga. The asshole fictional "director" even physically resembles Fukunaga. To think the project started out with first choice Inarritu and now has the Fast and Furious guy in charge! Yes, I hatewatch.

Vince Vaughn is terrible to watch. What a lousy gangster.

Colin Ferrell's coke party for one was pretty lame, as were his prison threats, but his "I feel you" look at McAdams' "I think I killed someone" redeemed him for me this ep. The show would have been better with just those two running around and brooding I think.

Even the New York Dolls couldn't redeem the nerf rampage.

Surreally bad! I wouldn't say hatewatch though because I'm really enjoying how it gets weirder by the episode. This last episode went kind of rated hard R James Bond and that dramatic soundtrack just kept going!
The one man coke party was wtf? with the rock music.

Last episode should be someone waking up from a bad dream and then pours a bowl of cereal then chews on it thoughtfully as the birds chirp.

It was Stan. You know, Stan. All around hell of a guy, that Stan. He didn't deserve that.

Has there ever been a more disappointing second season? Sure, there's Caddyshack 2 and whatever movie follow-ups, but a TV series? This is straight garbage. Except Rick Springfield.

Haven't watched the latest episode. I'll get to it soon.

Are they done with the crimson wave chick at Velcoro's dive bar? Shit was exhausting.

T-Bone Burnette needs to be shot out of a circus cannon into oncoming traffic. I'd rather listen to the bro-blues on Sons Of Anarchy than T-Bone's NPR piss dribbles.


Looks like Joe Walsh's corpse decided to go antiquing instead of eating brains.

I'm not going to watch TD 2, I liked TD 1 but by all accounts 2 sounds awful and I'm not the hate-watching type.  I try and make it a point only to take in media I actually enjoy and not for the sake of it's own awfulness(though I do happen to enjoy a lot of by-all-accounts awful things).  HOWEVER this thread is still way worth reading for comments like these.
