If it's got Waltz, I'm in. He's odd, (but not in a Rami Malek way) but a very effective actor. I mean, Inglorious Basterds anyone?

Watching E1 right now. No idea where this is going 30 minutes in, but I like what I'm seeing.

He was on Maher last week. Odd guy, but seems like someone you would want to meet.

No idea of the new show is any good. Waiting for y'all to review it for me.

This just keeps going weirder and weirder, I don't even know how many tangents and subplots we're at now.

It's trying to be dark humor, I just don't see it.

I'm getting the sense they're not going answer much, just more riddles, this seems more like a Sci fi supernatural direction than anything.

....still watching though

I saw Waltz was in it so I figured I’ll give it a watch.

Seinfeld had him on Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. Funniest part was that he took him to an International House of Pancakes.

I'm on episode 5 and I'm hooked. It's listed as a comedy on Prime, but I gotta say, there is very little humor in it.

Just finished. I enjoy weird stuff. I don’t really know what that was. Strange but I think I liked it?

Whenever I hear him outside of movies, he’s super awkward and almost overly deliberate.

During episode 3 I asked why I was watching it. By the final one I was still asking the question. 3 out of 10 at best for me. Strange show...can't recommend it. If there is a season two maybe they can improve it.

Weird show. It would have been better if he came in and did shite like take the latte machine away and replace it with Folgers. Then have the kids complain about drinking low quality coffee. A show like that would kill it.

I watched this sort of in the background. 30 minute episodes so easy to binge and rewind if you miss a few things. I found it entertaining. Weird but entertaining for the most part. Could have done more fricked up stuff to streamline or increase production like they did with the office space coming open but overall it was fine.

*spoilers*










I'm not really sure what the overall theme or point is that the show was trying to make. He screwed w/everyone's lives, the one dude gets really mad and kills him for it, but then he actually got them all everything they wanted in the end so even though he sucked he knew what he was doing all along? Um... ok. Oh, and here's his gold toe. So... yeah.

All I can think about was that bridge in the one episode. The guy asked him as they were driving over the bridge, how long have we been on this bridge. I need to go back and check, but it seemed like an insanely long time to be driving over a bridge.
