I didn't know that the show is supposed to be a comedy.

Denzel washington son is not a good actor

i feel you, i think he's just ok, but he's someone i can see improving. overall i think the acting is weak all around outside of reggie, but they sacrificed talent level for "believability" as far as look and past playing experience. i'll give HBO a hand for taking a flyer on such novice actors, but if this gets a season 2, i'm going to need all of them to raise the bar.

Reggie is the star of the show..in acting like the a$$hole behind the star. I be wanting to shake the ish outta this mofo. Especially whenever he look up like .

^That's why I aint been commenting. It's too fukkin short. Reggie that dude. If they do Season 2, they need to think about lengthening it.

don't need to say IF regarding this show and being renewed. it was already picked up, so there DEFINITELY will be a season 2.

*comes in thread and sees niccas STILL complaining about the runtime like its something hbo aint been doing for decades with their non dramas*

This show is so dumb

I'm OK with that tho, Entourage was just as dumb and I watched all of that

i usually fast fw the credits and such when i DVR...but i stopped and listened to this joint. thanks for the link.

Btw, I've never been big on rocking short sleeve button up shirts in the summer for some reason (I'm more of a roll the long sleeve up kinda guy)...but the rock got me wanting to reevaluate that thought.

I used to feel the same way but then I got buff. Get the ones with the double breast pockets

 

[CM_Burns]

This was the worst episode of the season to me, just boring. Season's been pretty good though.

When I heard that fatlip playing in the background


who picks the music

I actually have the CD single from back in the day. When I heard it, I turned my head like a dog and was like "is that, do i hear fatlip!?"

I'm almost willing to bet that Reggie, knew that ole girl knew Spence. Got Vernon jammed up and organized the squeeze and the sit down in order to get it on camera Spence paying off ole girl to keep the drugs on the boat hush-hush. That would not only ruin Spence's career it would fukk over that company too.

Spence didn't take the bait, so he prolly figured to just skip the middle man. I find it fishy that we haven't seen this woman, heard from her, or anything like that.

Hell yeah he's in on it. He got Vernon to stay on the boat when he wanted to leave. And if I recall correctly, I believe he was the one taking the pics in that episode. The only thing is when the lawyer was showing them the pics, Reggie was in 1 or 2 of them. May have photoshopped himself in to make it seem like he didnt take the pics.

Reggie isn't the star of the show...he's the weasel that gets you scratching your head and want to piss in Vern's food for being as stupid as he is. The bytches are the star of the show..the rest is just online chatter.
