    Oh my god Occupy Wall Street and this show... The pretentious scale could explode.

    That being said... CAN'T WAIT!! Best hatewatch show ever.

    Always remember that doctors declare people dead... NOT THE NEWS!

      HBO got rid of Bored to Death, How to make it in America, and Hung for this shitty show,Enlightened, and the dog crap Girls. Good job HBO.

        Then who wrote that awful "chips are falling" punchline?

            Hung was shitty, the other two were barely non-shitty.

              I'd take two barely non-shitty over 3 flat out go fuck yourself shows.

                  I would take none of them existing and GoT and Boardwalk Empire each getting twice the budget, but hey what can ya do.

                      You deserved that neg.

                      Hung was awkwardly funny. Underrated show.

                      Infinitely better than that shitshow Girls. Bored to Death would have been better as a miniseries. It had a good concept and good cast, but didn't really work with the weekly episodic format, IMO.

                            WHAT AN OPENER.

                            I'm was cracking up at the youtube video and the homie goes off on her.

                            He'll be dicing up Olivia Munn in no time.

                              Between this, Dexter and True Blood, Sundays are now HATE WATCH SUNDAYS.

                                I felt the new tamer, neutered version of Newsroom made for a dull hate watch. And I can't fully hate anything that features Van Morrison's "Into the Mystic" ...

                                However, there was some foreshadowing to a really problematic story arc for Allison Pill's character, so I'm sure there will be plenty of opportunities to throw my hands up in disgust down the road.
