Mad Men (Season 2 – Season 6)
After countless stops and starts, I finally powered through enough to get hooked. Hamm Shmamm, where’s Vincent Kartheiser’s Emmy? Hamm is solid but I’m never particularly excited by his performance. He’s like the Tim Duncan of TV anti heroes.
Comedy Bang Bang (Seasons 1 and 2)
I’m glad l lasted through the bumpy first season because it really finds a groove in the second.
Silicon Valley (1.1 – 1.6)
They need to re-tool the lead because his whininess quickly devolved from endearing to unappealing.
The Shield (Season 1)
This show is absurdly manly. Very watchable but pretty corny and dumb too. Possibly the worst theme in the history of TV.
Inside Amy Schumer (Seasons 1 and 2)
It started solid, but it’s been on fire lately. And whale fracking is the worst kind of fracking.
Broad City (Season 1)
Love it.
True Detective (1.1)
Pass.
