2 episodes in, Transparent is pretty good for a family dramedy type thing. I like it. Jeffrey Tamblor is a good actor.

Finally watched this week's "The Americans". Unfortunately it had the apparently mandatory yet so goddamn boring scene where Stan did marriage stuff. Otherwise, awesome as always. I am assuming that the mysterious call about the symphony tickets was something about that supposed defector leaving a message for Phillip.

If no one ends up with a David Spade avatar out of all this, it will all be for naught.

sometimes it's hard for me to differentiate between bad acting and shallow characters and writing. It was either one or the other, but it didn't bother me too much. The girlfriend seemed fine enough and the investigators seem to just be props. The two skateboarding numbnuts made me cringe a lot more.
Props is a good way to describe the investigators. I suppose I'm being over reactive to this. I just got Dexter flashbacks watching it - god that show went from one of my favorites to garbage in a few seasons.

I just watched it on DVR over the weekend and that was bad. There was just way too much effort put into that to try and be cute and it still ended up just being a one hour middle finger to Charlie Sheen that even failed at that. The one joke that might have been good was the crack about Allan never paying for anything but jeez, they beat that into the ground over and over.

Although I have to admit that I had some very impure thoughts when Allan called Candy and she said that he was the first she ever had 'tushy sex' with.
