Barry - Anyone else excited for Bill Hader’s new show? (Season 1 Discussion Thread)

Bill Hader always kills it. I forgot how hilarious he was in Forgetting Sarah Marshall

He was doing the talk show circuit to promote this.. and hilariously kept stating how he would tell friends and family that he's playing a hitman and everyone had a "really?... like for real?" Reaction.

Then said if he was really put in the army he would probably be KIA just getting his head shaved in basic..

I look forward to the series

Listened to an interview where he it’s much more dramatic than the previews may lead you to believe. Dark comedy stuff with some actual drama

I’m looking forward to it. Stephen Root Is one of my favorite supporting actors.

Really enjoyed the first episode.

Very.

first ep was meh, i'll continue to watch though

Great first episode. I'd try out anything with Bill Hader, but it looks like a good premise.

This was a really nice surprise.

At first I wasn't buying it, it didn't make sense to me to see a depressed hit man. You expect more of a psychopath. But then he explained how he got in the business, and it made more sense. Then at the end when he showed his competence, and the fact that he didn't hesitate to protect himself, that went a long way to make his character believable. I needed to see him in action, and he looked good. Looking forward to the whole season.
