icecream Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Did anyone here get into this show ? i heard hbo didn't re-new their contract after the 3'rd season. i've been waiting for this to go on sale forever & finally picked it up for $15 at best buy. being an avid jason schwartzman fan i knew i had to pick this up. and obviously the supporting cast compliments the show quite well.

cwilks Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 This show is extremely entertaining. That is sad news they're not renewing it. I'm surprised more people didn't get into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Show was great. I heard the same thing about it not getting re-newed which is a bummer. Ted Danson was my favorite character on the show, he was hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

booyahachieved Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I enjoyed this series a great deal. I would consider them lucky to have had three seasons. Not all shows get that luxury. Ted Danson won me over big time. I totally had that guy written off before this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 watched a couple episodes one day, and then wasnt at all shocked to hear it got canned. the fact that a show starred schwartz and galifinakis and wasnt considered the best show on tv should be enough to tell you its not very good. i was bummed to hear hung got cancelled too.. even though its easily the crappiest show i follow.

kidamnesiac Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I honestly felt this was the best show on TV. Super bummed it's been cancelled. Best part of the show was the interplay between Danson and Galifinakis. Even though Schwartzman's character was the "protagonist," he was always a backseat player in my book.

icecream Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 kind of off topic but if anyone has nighttiming to sell on vinyl hit me up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booyahachieved Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Word on the street is that Phantom Planet is getting back together. Although I don't think Schwartzman's involved... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoshotthefrog Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Loved this show and it's dry humor. Sad it was canceled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imaminorthreat Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Brilliant show. Everyone here should look into Jonathan Ames... he created it with Schwartzman. He's a fucking brilliant writer. He's funny as hell and really self deprecating. Great stuff. I'm on my 2nd book of his non-fiction. So sad to see this show go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially because I felt the show was getting better and better. have you read Wake Up, Sir! by any chance? It's been on my book list for a while and a recommendation might move it to the top.

philviral Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I love this show. Sad that it will not be continued.... I've been thinking since season 1 that the seasons need to be longer!! 8 shows per season isn't much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
