Television Industry (HBO Show)

[Rooney in Paris]

We are crawling through season 1. Ok but nothing at all special and we are using it as a filler between better things.

Filler is a good way of describing it. It's well produced and some of the performances are good - I'm just fascinated at how wrong they got the casting for their main character. She's tragic, and getting worse with every episode. My dislike for it also stems from my personal convictions and its portrayal of that disgusting industry.

Nice I will order it tonight.

Better not order it from Amazon!!

I had similar thoughts about Harper after the first season, although I enjoyed the season a lot more than you. I would recommend sticking with it. It matures a lot from season 1 to 2, and season 3 is one of the boldest seasons of television I’ve seen, with every single episode swinging for the fences.

I genuinely don't get it. Season 3 is just more of the same stuff that has been served up until now, with the exception they've managed to introduce (or expand) new two dimensional characters, and make the existing ones even more unbearable. I genuinely don't get it. It's not genius TV, there's nothing inventive about it, the writing is very hit or miss, the main character is probably the worst one of a major TV show in quite a while...
