Just before hitting the hay, I learned this is available for purchase independently of AMC+, on Prime, YouTube, etc., so it's on.Anonymous37 wrote: Tue Mar 21, 2023 12:59 amLucky Hank First episode premiered Sunday, and it's pretty great.
I wish I could see this, but no Prime. Donald Glover is very talented.Ike wrote: Wed Mar 22, 2023 4:02 pm Swarm is fucking suuuuuuuper gnarly.
Zero clue exactly where it's going (and I'll assume the creators are pulling a bait-and-switch with some of the press surrounding it) but I'm on board.
Makes me feel uncomfortable.
Totally. I would never patronize a website like that.

It's based on the book Straight Man by Richard Russo, which I happened to read circa 2004, via a bookworm friend of mine who'd lent it to my then-gf. All three of us liked it. Sort of in the ballpark of Wonder Boys, in that it deals with an older prof type under some duress, trying to iron out some issues. I found it to be a well written tale--crisp prose, wry humor, and some good commentary about academia and the culture at large. It stood out to me because at the time I was reading few contemporary novels, and it reflected well on lit set in the then-present. Anyway, haven't seen any trailers/previews for the show, but Bob Odenkirk is in it, so am guessing they'll be playing it for laughs.
I didn't get a chance to see the rest of the episodes until now, but the show's turn near the end of that first season was so deeply, deeply strange, all the way through to the final lines of the final episode.penningtron wrote: Mon Jul 18, 2022 6:39 amYES. First episode did not disappoint, and knowing how these shows go will only get weirder and more elaborate as they go.
(the Fielder-produced How To With John Wilson on Max is also great, haven't seen that mentioned on the board yet)
