| House of Lies Posted by Fleur de Diable Just saw an advert for the new season, I was intrigued. Did anybody catch the first season? Is it worth giving a watch? Critics seem to be 50/50 on it. on 12/31 at 4:29 pmReply • Back to Top |
| I watched all of it, hoping for it to get better, but it really didn't. ETA: There were scenes where Cheadle did a good job, but a 30 min comedy drama is a weird format. This post was edited on 12/31 at 4:46 pm Reply • Back to Top |
| I endured maybe four episodes before giving up on it. Terrible show. No redeeming qualities. For a lesser known Showtime series, try Episodes. It's a nice little show that gets better as it goes on. Reply • Back to Top |
| Thank you both. I didn't realize it was a 30 minute format, figured it would be an hour long. And thanks for the suggestion Spock, I'll give it a look. Reply • Back to Top |
| I used to be in the consulting business so I liked it. Not at all accurate but funny enough. Reply • Back to Top |
| LOVE it. My favorite new show last year, Bell and Cheadle are dynamite together. Got really good the further it went on leading up to an epic season finale, got 3 of my friends addicted to it. Jan 13th can't come fast enough.  This post was edited on 12/31 at 5:39 pm Reply • Back to Top |
Posted by Rza32 on 12/31 at 5:46 pm to Fleur de Diable Very witty and funny show. Just watch it, only 30 minutes per episode.Reply • Back to Top |
| Even though Jean Ralphio is in it, I never gave it a watch. Reply • Back to Top |
| I enjoyed it. The series got better as the season progressed. Reply • Back to Top |
Posted by Bench McElroy on 12/31 at 9:40 pm to RonBurgundy quote: I was surprised at how shitty it was. Even Don Cheadle's acting which is usually very high caliber was mediocre on the show. I personally think he was miscast. Someone like Idris Elba aka Stringer Bell would have much a better choice for that role. Nonetheless, the writing and direction would still have prevented the show from being any good even with the ideal cast. Reply • Back to Top |
Posted by Bench McElroy on 12/31 at 9:47 pm to Spock's Eyebrow quote: I agree with you. Love Episodes. I was surprised by how much I liked LeBlanc. I know he's basically playing an exaggerated version of himself but his character absolutely makes that show. Reply • Back to Top • Refresh |
