Really enjoying the series so far. One more episode left for me.

Paul Rudd does an excellent job playing the Shrink. What an a-hole.

Thoughts? Opinions?

The wife and I are through 4 episodes. We really want to like it, but it is difficult to watch.

The show is so slow moving. It should be a few episodes shorter.

Wifey & I like it. Paul Rudd plays the villain so well.

I feel like the show will be a lot more enjoyable if you listen to the podcast first. I don't think I would enjoy the show if I didn't know the full story.

The podcast provides far more background and examples of Ike taking advantage of Marty that the show has to minimize or gloss over, which reduces the sheer ridiculousness of the true story IMO.

Tried to watch this. Made it 3 episodes in and couldn't watch anymore. Just bored out of my mind and I know its a bit of tunnel vision but I hate the characters for Rudd and Ferrell.

Oof. Haven't watched yet but it shouldn't take 5 episodes to get to where it's going. Was looking forward to this but doesn't sound that great. May put it on the backburner.

Glad you brought this up. Started the first 3 that they put out. Going to check binge the rest tonight. Crazy how he's going to end up in that house

You kidding me? It's a slow burn.

Those make for great television. If they were to give too much away too soon, the plot lines each episode would be too predictable.

It's a bit slow paced but Paul Rudd and Will Ferral do great in types of roles most probably haven't seen them try before.

It's interesting.
