so here are a few shows I'm watching lately to fill my VP and Broad City (comedy) void...

Posted by: lobogotti on Oct 12, 06:52

Divorce (HBO) - only one episode currently, so the jury is out.  started off pretty good though.  it's pretty much exactly about the title itself.  solid casting and some minor shock value... hopefully it takes off, but it might be more depressing than funny by the end.

Insecure (HBO) - also only one episode currently, so the jury is out.  started off pretty good.  pulled this description off IMDB:  Follows the awkward experiences and racy tribulations of a modern-day African-American woman.

so it's basically Girls for the Arican American woman.  I think it has heart, we'll see how it shapes up.

Better Things (FX) - 5 episodes available currently.  this is a jewel of a show IMO.  Pamela Adlon is too funny for words.  Celia Imrie is also quite hilarious.  if you're a fan of Louis CK, this show is for you.  just a great look on life for an actor raising three daughters.  feels genuine.

Atlanta (FX) - 7 episodes available currently.  two cousins, with different views on art versus commerce, on their way up through the Atlanta rap scene; "Earnest 'Earn' Marks," an ambitious college drop-out and his estranged cousin, who suddenly becomes a star.

I'm only three episodes in, but so far this is quite a gem.  really love it thus far.

love to hear from anyone watching these, or anyone that ends up watching as a result.  not sure all would satisfy each person, but theres enough choices there to maybe find one that is up your alley.

Some thoughts from me... skamanfu Oct 12, 16:26

good place is delightful (but i havent been watching it intently enough to guess a scenario) {nm} islander Oct 12, 16:37

Spoilers (through episode 4 when I posted this on FB) and my thoughts of where it might go inside skamanfu Oct 13, 09:22

My order would be... skamanfu Oct 13, 09:19

should have told you that I'm a Halt & Catch Fire viewer... love it. watched the 1st season of Baskets, is the 2nd back on in Feb? lobogotti Oct 13, 12:08

I'm caught up on Atlanta, Ep 7, I was crying I was laughing so hard. {nm} lobogotti Oct 14, 05:26

Check out Documentary Now! {nm} avandelay Oct 13, 11:40

that good huh? I watch IFC a lot, but always overlook that one. I'll watch a couple episodes. {nm} lobogotti Oct 13, 12:06

If you watch a lot of documentaries then I think you'll like it. But some of the episodes are funnier if you've seen the doc it is spoofing {nm} avandelay Oct 13, 12:18

huge documentary buff. watch a few a week. {nm} lobogotti Oct 13, 12:32

If you've seen the original docs, this show is one of the funniest on tv. The first episode spoofing Grey Gardens was sublime. {nm} Willroast Oct 13, 19:23

Have you found time to check out Westworld yet Lobo? 2 eps in and it is amazeballs. {nm} Willroast Oct 13, 19:25

I want to watch it with the wife, so I have had to bide my time this week. Saturday night, or lobogotti Oct 14, 05:25

Grey Gardens, oh my word what a lovely doc! {nm} lobogotti Oct 14, 05:24
