re: Anyone watching "The Deuce" (HBO)

Yeah the launch was kind of quiet. I didn't realize the first episode was out until like a week after a buddy watched it.

I really liked the first one. I liked Vinyl too, but I lost interest quickly because I didn't give a shite about any of the people in it. It seemed really ambitious, to the point where it eventually just wasn't entertaining.

For some reason when I think of both of these shows, they remind me of Magic City (which wasn't a particularly great show, but I found it pretty enjoyable).
