I think Scott has easily had the best career of anyone coming back since the original ended, but I just don't see him as a "I'm going to subscribe to Starz to see a show I didn't used to watch with him in it before now" star.

To me it was just a fun show to see a lot of actors I've gone on to like in other shows.

I’ve been a fan since the show originally aired, and I agree, the new season is even better than the original seasons. (Honestly, I never really liked Lizzy Caplan’s character, so don’t feel she’s missing from the show).

That episode depicts the psychedelic experience in film better than anything I’ve ever seen before. From the acting, the dialogue, the editing…it absolutely nails what it feels like to be borderline out of control on mushrooms. It really is a fantastic episode.

Yeah I'm enjoying it, and I like him a lot. I first saw him in Parks and Rec which was a great run for him.

I really like the cast, Martin Starr was a favorite from Freaks and Geeks and Silicon Valley more recently. As Parks fan Megan Mullaly is always fun. I love Jennifer Garner in general. I'd love to see more episodes, but I didn't hold out high hopes for them.

Because their life sucks, they don't know how to escape it, so they go into escapism. Tv's, computers, video games, and cell phones are cheap enough that they can get them and get a lot of escapism out of it. I'm also talking about people who have been poor generationally. I'm not talking about a otherwise not poor person who just got into a spot.
