Looks great.
Wonder if the split screen thing is just for the promo.

They're making a show about Waco.

And Michael Shannon is playing one of the FBI agents!

I guess I'll have to give Documentary Now! another shot. I'm pretty darn familiar with most of the references and generally love Hader, but something about it just fell flat for me. Maybe it's more fun if one doesn't know what they're parodying?

Had the same experience but after listening to this week's Pop Culture Happy Hour and the Doc Now discussion, I'm aiming to give it another chance, too.

I just finished the book a few days ago. Mediocre book, but look at that cast! Can't wait for the HBO treatment of that story.

So mediocre that I couldn't finish it, but this series looks very good.  Love the setting and cast.
