THINK ABOUT YOUR BABY PROBLEMS, JERRY

[ecto]

i watched the first episode last weekend. should i know more about horse racing to follow this? i was confused as fuck

[G_S]

or whatever he says. good episode

[G_S]

just stick with it

[Feech La Manna]

Richard Kind is the best

[G_S]

I'm not a fan. but the gambler trio/quartet scenes are the best thing in the world. craig told me milch writes by lying on his office floor and dictating to an intern. that's such a great image, seeing him lying there yelling insults.

[Feech La Manna]

Marcus is awesome. The look on his face after that race was beautiful.

[husbands]

This ep is two days, it looks like. Pretty good so far

[Albus]

Saw these everywhere in Hong Kong last week

[husbands]

Who was that song at the end? It wasn't bad, but maybe that's only cause I've been drinking

[Feech La Manna]

strangely sweet episode, but I liked it

[Feech La Manna]

and yeah, I was actually kinda shocked when they did the Hoffman/Farina scene halfway through and then transitioned to a new day

[manvstrees]

got such a crush on the vet

[MonkeyTennis]

yeah its brutal, ive got a cute friend from hs that i havent talked to in years whos an equine vet or whatever...hate being reminded of her

[Motherwell]

she's probably used to bigger wieners by now

[MonkeyTennis]

most girls i knew in hs probably are

[pissydan]

what an oddly successful "queer for you" scene.

[Feech La Manna]

Yeah that scene was great, as was Marcus and the doctor, and the last scene. I'm guessing shit's gonna get nasty next week after how generally heartwarming that episode was.

It's pretty amusing how badly Joan Allen dwarfs Hoffman.

[husbands]

I think this show should have some graphic old person sex a la The Cooler

[lockheed]

that's definitely devendra banhart

[Baby Museum]

damn hoffman killed it in this episode.

[sunrise]

The show has been super uplifting the last 2 episodes, pretty sure the 2 day structure is basically going to make this the breaking point. I could happily just watch all these people being happy for 5 series.

Loved "fag wheelchair olympics"

[Kafkaesque]

[bluemovers]

show has really developed nicely over the last 2 - 3 episodes. i was so lost for the first 2, but now i understand who relates to who, who owns which horse, etc., and the dialogue is so great.

[The Emperor's Son]

I'll admit,even though I think he's stellar, I haven't really been following nolte's storyline or backstory.

Can someone fill me in?

[Feech La Manna]

He had a horse that he was a little too attached to, horse ran in the Kentucky Derby, horse sired the horse he owns now, horse was killed by "Kentucky quality" (I dunno)

[Kafkaesque]

the kentucky derby horse was killed by the people who inherited it to cash in on the insurance after the original owner died.

[pissydan]

the kentucky derby horse was killed by the people who inherited it to cash in on the insurance after the original owner died.

and apparently he was passive in letting this happen. or at least, he feels quite guilty about it. if i understand the mumbling emoting correctly.

[Feech La Manna]

aaaahhh yeah okay I remember him talking about the insurance now.
