Comes back tonight. Like the show, but don't love it. Definitely more interested to see where this show goes compared to Californication which has become fairly predictable.

This is my new Entourage(early seasons) except with better focus and some better characters. It's not *good*, but it's fun. And there's usually some tits. Just have to pray it doesn't turn in to Entourage(later seasons).
That said, super disappointed they're going with the relationship shit between Cheadle and Bell. If anything that's something they should have really built up to long term.

I dont think it'll go anywhere, I think Bell's character will like him but Marty is sot hung up on his ex. If Marty can be lured away from the chick he was with last season for his ex then Bell doesn't stand a chance.
I enjoyed season 1, but now I just can't wait for the show to end so I can watch Californication.

I watched this show and Shameless last night and decided to skip Californication because I knew it would only raise my irritation with the fact that I pay money for Showtime even higher. Maybe it's just because I'm not a sitcom guy but these shows seem retarded to me. I just imagine the writers room where they're coming up with this stuff.
I know, let's have a couple of rich douche bag brothers! What will their names be? OMG OMG, let's call them the Douchkin twins! Because they're douchebags! And every character will refer to them as douche bags any time they're not around, just so everyone will understand that they are douche bags! And they will act like douchey baggy frat boy douches and say things like "bro" all the time and slap each other on the ass while they fuck prostitutes! Because that's what douche bags do! It's hilarious! But what about Guggenheim? Let's put him in a silly moustache and then show him getting a prostate massage from prostitute! Nothing is funnier than that.
And then you go over to Shameless and it's like "What horrible things should Frank do this week? Well, we could have him stab a retard baby with a thumbtack and then tell his kid he has cancer and shave his head so the make-a-wish foundation will give him a signed basketball to sell on ebay, because that's totally plausible right?
Finally, over at Californication they're like "Hey, let's show Hank peeing in a whiskey bottle and then taking a drink of the pee and going "hmm, not bad". Because you know that's totally what would happen if someone was an alcoholic."
Are these shows written for 16 year olds or are actual adults supposed to buy into the notion that human beings would behave in this way?
