I just finished up last week's episode and I love how they're making Tim look more and more corpulent as the weeks go by.

"Speaking of the situation we're in now, Nightmare Alley...." Also, holy poo poo, Mark's Cavalcade of Characters was one of the most amazing On Cinema related things in a long time.

Toni can really act. Also please please can we get a gif of Mark licking the lollipop? E: Also, Tim's inability to pronounce Mark's name is never not funny Cognac McCarthy fucked around with this message at 05:01 on Dec 2, 2021 |

I had to pause the episode for a minute because I completely lost it when Gregg muttered "Kramer vs. Kramer."

second half of this ep was hands down some of the best acting ever on this show. I mean I did notice that Toni was drinking almost every single time she was on screen but drat I didn't think it was gonna blow up quite like this episode 8 was great as well, amazing how such a nihilistic show can have two legitimately likeable characters in Manuel and Joe

Made me wonder if they planned it from back then or if they've just been developing it over time. I also wonder if the Dr. San stuff is part of what they originally had planned for the "Seven Minutes in Heaven" concept with Pastor Lewis.

It helps sell how consistently lovely they are, even the weirdest around them are usually much more well meaning than either of the two.

such a symphony of comedy, this show. Mark's confused response of '....Ohio??' would not have worked nearly as well if they hadn't spent three episodes getting us used to Gregg saying FROM?? every time an actor is mentioned.

Yeah, and probably having some kind of affair even before, going from their interaction. My purely speculative guess is that Tim and Pastor Lewis would have had some kind of "spiritual wedding" in heaven and this would have tied into the prenup with Toni.

Yeah, though they're also generally people who are easy to take advantage of. Mark has always been a step off, Ayaka was young and didn't have a great grasp on English, also very worried for Wendy Kerby given how naive but scared she always looks. Axiom, Manuel and Joe are all kinda just doofuses though who mean the best and have misplaced faith in Tim, but something like Axiom giving Tim his hand just sorta strikes me as someone too deep into a cult-like abusive relationship to say no. Toni is presented to us as pretty terrible upfront though now obviously is having a moment to grow. Dr. San always had sinister grifter vibes. Who knows what the gently caress is up with LaRue.

LaRue is a conspiracy-minded wacko with no actual investigative skills or knowledge that had just enough street cred (read: intimidating black man) that Tim immediately bought all the way in. Tim definitely enables him, but I don't see either of them as taking advantage of each other. Just two guys who are incompetent in compatible ways, much like Tim and Gregg

Yeah for sure, though I think LaRue likes to fancy himself that he's a talented investigator. Though Dr. San did also seem to believe in what he was selling too. I think that's one of the hallmarks of the show: Everyone genuinely believes in what they're doing, even if it's fleeting. Tim, in all his narcissism, really does believe he's building an empire and every new venture he starts up he is steadfastly convinced is worth doing and will be the thing that makes it big for him. Just like he truly believes Dr. San's vapes are good for him, that RJ's shakes are making him healthy, that he really is innocent and did not kill all those kids. Gregg entirely believes he's a film expert and even when he's wrong convinces himself he's right. Axiom and Manuel truly believe they're going to be big rock stars. Joe Estevez often seems unsure of himself but he's willing to give anything a try, including being a CFO. That's really the glue of the show. Everyone is incompetent, Tim and Gregg are vile narcissists, nothing they do will ever succeed, but in the core of their being they believe all of it. edit: It's honestly strange how much Tim is a perfect image of Lowtax.

ALFbrot posted:... just enough street cred (read: intimidating black man) Gregg's just some guy that watches lots of movies. Axiom's just some guy that was at Guitar Warehouse. Manuel's just some guy that Axiom knew. Laroux's just some guy that is black and intimidating looking. Max is just some guy that worked at Best Buy. He surrounds himself with mediocrity. And still wins bigly!

Before the 2020 Oscar Special I would say that Gregg was at least the most harmless one.

I'd love to vote in Heilot Season but I can't, in good conscience, spend my hard-earned HEI Points on it. I will need all the HEI Points I can get when the dollar completely devalues and HEI Points become the new legal tender of the world.

I am expecting some last-minute infusion of HEI points (from Tim, most likely) into one show to render all the audience participation irrelevant. It would be funny if Gregg was the one to force his show to win.

only Gregg would have the obsessive singlemindedness required to click 10,000 times in order to add all the votes. (it's 100 points per vote, and you have to click and then refresh the page each time LOL wtf)

It would be funny if Gregg was the one to force his show to win. I am wondering how they plan to integrate this. Does voting end right when the episode airs? Then do they have a different cut ready to go depending on the winner, or are Tim/Gregg going to gently caress with the outcome? Anyway I am trying to vote for Popcorn Shuffle 600 times while I follow my fiancee around Walmart. This bit rules.

^ I'm assuming they've already written the "results" and are just going to fudge the outcome or tip the scales somehowderp posted:only Gregg would have the obsessive singlemindedness required to click 10,000 times in order to add all the votes. On the other hand it would be trivially easy to write a little Python script to use all your votes on whichever show you wanted. The average subscriber's points won't swing the results (I have about 500 votes, LaRue is currently in last place with around 6500) but it would make a dent.

Rigging it isnt in the spirit of the show imo. They already did the bet between greg and tim about who would win some oscar that led to tim owning the VFA, and that was live during the oscars.

As much as I want to be a tycoon of industry when the dolalr collapses, I want more episodes of rock house even beyond that. e: though Mark's bit about the actor who played Alfalfa got a pretty serious belly laugh out of me.

In terms of pilot quality it was Rock House > Cavalcade of Stars > Xposed > Popcorn Shuffle, but Gregg is just singularly an insanely funny character to me so I will always vote Gregg. But lmao at the headshot for Rock House being Manuel and Wendy.
