I was mostly paying attention but through the first episode I had trouble identifying the politics of Kevin Spacey's character as well as those of his wife. For one, he is scheming, vengeful SOB, which in Hollywoodland equals Republican. But the his wife worked for a clean water group.

Anyway, despite the fact that appeared it was another, typical Republican is the bad guy show, I was enjoying it as it was much more about his plan for revenge than politics.

Then, the second episode starts and Spacey is seated with two colleagues. One of them says, "The Republicans are going to hammer us for this." And I think, "Holy shit! He's a Democrat!? Portrayed like this!?!!?"

**MINOR SPOILER ALERT**

Later in the episode, his wife lays off half of the staff at the water group she runs. Well, she doesn't can them. She makes the office manager, with who she started the group, can them. And after the poor woman fires 18 people, Spacey's wife (played by Robin Wright Penn) cans the office manager. Wow! I cannot recall such portrayal of Democrats!

Granted, I had to suspend disbelief when George Stephanopolus grills a Dem nominee about his past. Yeah! Like that would happen...

Anyway, after two episodes, I'd recommend this show to the folks here!; 5/6/13, 8:48 PM

Emu testicles will be tasted.; 5/6/13, 10:00 PM

I'm betting Althouse doesn't party with the ag profs too much.; 5/6/13, 10:11 PM
Rabel said...: Cheese mites would seem to be a problem.

They look like dust mites and crawl around inside the cheese and poop. Their poop creates enzymes which help the cheese to age.

Why wasn't I told this before?; 5/6/13, 10:18 PM

Guildofcannonballs said...: And what precisely is the difference between 007's sex and identity and a person who is not heterosexual (I am not sure of a term that is right and do not want to offend but simply supplicate, for now, in order to gain knowledge that, if my cause be true, will be of use) and their identity being centered on sex?

And for God's sake, what about Robert California?

I ain't got the answers, but American Digest posted a great song the other day I can't get out of my mind, so I've become radicalized and hence my actions are merely time-dispositive yours more than likely.; 5/6/13, 10:28 PM
Rabel said...: He's at Graze now. The chef is a fat Chinese guy. With a Mowhawk.

The food he prepared was colorful, a lettuce/mayo puree/mulch topped with two small chunks of fried chicken. Green and Gold.; 5/6/13, 10:29 PM
Rabel said...: Deep fried Whitefish livers. Now we're talking.

Followed by a visit to the upstate Serbians. Head-on barbeque lamb and organ meats. Watch those guys. You don't want a war with Minnesota.; 5/6/13, 10:43 PM
Rabel said...: And at last we get to the Emu nuts. "Taste like chicken balls" I think he said.

Andrew eats testicles on almost every episode it seems. The novelty is beginning to wear off.; 5/6/13, 10:53 PM
Guildofcannonballs said...: First and foremost most fast and furious we must all agree on only just this one minuscule matter:

The greatest show in the history of shows was none other than The Larry Sanders Show.

Hank Kingsley Jr. is the greatest character to ever act, of such genuine transference of feeling/thought/fate that to see it is to never flimber.

Everyone in the biz (that is short for "business" fyi*) knows this already and this is why a certain online retailer re-tailored their offerings to not include the greatest of the great ever.

There is reason why folks.

Rabel said...: And now a trip to a slaughterhouse run by a Zen Buddhist lawyer.

He honors and respects the dignity of the cows and appreciates their place in nature as he tenderly puts the bolt gun to their head before respectfully cutting them into smaller pieces.; 5/6/13, 11:03 PM
Rabel said...: And we conclude with the Zen Buddhist cooking up mixed cow organs into a nice, dignified scrapple.

Dude better be careful. Karma's a bitch.

And really, people, don't fuck with Minnesota.; 5/6/13, 11:14 PM
Guildofcannonballs said...: Here I go again.

Always makin' up my words, knowing no context is required because no idea cares, even my ideas, about the word I coined meaning "not having seen Hank Kingsley Jr.'s ilk discluding HKjr per his as it were wishes," and they being that and whatall.

Said being that, I will offer just this in my anti-riposte, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, quite again soon sometime.; 5/6/13, 11:36 PM

Then I heard Gram Parsons.
