Anybody else watch the pilot the other night? I thought it was very good and am intrigued to see how they develop the story in the next few episodes.

Been watching it on Hulu so I've seen through episode 2. Looks like it's gonna be great

I watched the pilot last week. I am very excited for this show. It caught my interest right away and with Paul Giamatti and Damien Lewis, this is looking like to be my new favorite show

I'll keep watching. I laugh every time they say "Bobby Axelrod" so dramatically though. Sounds like a Will Ferrell character.

Looking forward to this but the title of the show is terrible.

Intrigued. Will watch again.
I like to see a D.A. get whipped.

Just finished episode 2. I'm really digging this show.

I really like it even if every time I see Axe I think of Nichola Brody.

It's ok. The writing is pretty forced and kind of shitty ala a lot of showtime shows.
You have two guys trying to act like Ryan Gosling in The Big Short and they can't pull it off.
I'll give it a shot but the cast is pretty weak IMO.

I don't love Axe actor, but I thought the rest of the cast was really great. Giamatti and his wife are on point.

Yea yea agreed.
But the trader side has been really under whelming so far.
Trying to be clever with those ridiculous virgin marry lines? They beat the shite out of that dead horse.

I wanted to like this show, but couldn't make it through episode 2. Everything felt forced and overwraught. I can't decide if that was due to the writing or acting/casting, but it wasn't working for me at all.
I might give it another go later, b/c it is something I should like for a variety of reasons, but was a major disappointment.

I can't agree with this more. Other than Giamatti it's fricking garbage. Every scene involving Axe or his company just feels like the writers doing nothing but seeing who can come up with the bigger 'Gotcha' line. Not a single thing about this show feels fresh.

Yep. And all the gotcha lines are shitty.
The dude who plays Axe's assistant will always be that pussy from breaking bad to me.

The board room scene where he was calling people out and using gratuitous language was really bad.
I admit.
That guy does not pull off that role well at all.
