The first two episodes dropped late last week and I'd say it's off to a solid start. A little rushed and predictable, and not laugh-out-loud funny or anything, but it's entertaining enough, I love Jake Johnson, and really enjoy the Boogie Nights-esque setting. To that end, there's a TON of nudity, a lot of it dong, but quite a bit on the female side as well. Best thing about it is that episodes hover right around the half-hour mark, so it's light and not a huge commitment. Just a fun, easy watch overall...

Glad to see he's still getting work after that disaster that was the rise of Skywalker

The wife and I watched the first two episodes and we thought it was funny. I told my wife that it seems like a fantasy show that Nick Miller from "New Girl" would have created in his mind.

Roller coaster of emotions in that sentence

I'm not sure if there's a joke I'm missing or if you're understandably and/or purposely confusing Oscar's Isaac for Jake Johnson.

I suspected that's what he was doing as well but I honestly wasn't sure which star wars that one was.

Watched the first 2 episodes last night - wife and I both loved it. I think this has pretty good potential.

Before I watch this, I just want to make sure there isn't any menstruation.

Really enjoyed episode three. This show's finding its groove and becoming something legit fun and unique. I'm looking more and more forward to returning to this world each week.

Just finished episode six and this is the best "fun" show I've seen in years. The cast is so likable and every episode is a classic "problem of the week" in the best way. It's just so efficient, enjoyable, and well done.

Oh, and it really pairs well with Winning Time, considering the time period/setting, which is also on HBO Max and in the middle of its first season.

Definitely looking forward to the final four episodes, and hoping it gets picked up for season two (and beyond).

Yeah, this is my new favorite "lighthearted, fun, no stress" show to watch. The main cast has chemistry and there's not a one of them I don't like.

Wife and I picked this up when I saw this thread and knocked out the first four episodes last night.

I think it's great. It's funny, easy to watch, and interesting. Good acting, writing, and it's just overall very well done. Supporting cast is great

I am thru episode 7 and I agree with everything you have said! Its such a fun cast and it seems the chemistry among everyone is organic and you can sense it in the way it comes out. I bet that wasa fun show to film and be a part of

So weird/dumb. HBO Max greenlit a second season, FILMED a second season, but now is not only canceling the show, they're removing season one from the service, under the efforts of the new ownership to cost cut wherever possible. It sounds like the show will likely get picked up by another steamer, and we'll get to see the second season eventually, but this is all still so stupid...

Might want to check out the ratings for HotD. Not hard to see why this is the case.

Very strange and disappointing. Minx was great, so I hope they let someone else pick it up.

HBO Max and Netflix are the only services we never cancel (not counting Prime), but they're making it harder to keep HBO. Might push us to cancel seasonally like we do with others if they keep this up.

Speaking of Netflix, we were scrolling through yesterday and were blown away by the volume of both in-house and licensed content they have. I know they were losing subscribers at one point, but I still don't see anyone being close to them. Each of the other services has their big shows, but they don't keep me in between seasons.

Caught the new episode on the Starz app last night. The addition of Elizabeth Perkins is intriguing.
