Party Down (TV-R)

Sorry if this is a repost (I did a quick search).

Just burned through everything on Netflix streaming, and am now caught up including the newest episode from last Friday. Are there any fans? Loving this show. Not sure why Starz is involved, if this was on HBO, there would have already been a thread here.

The cast is incredible. Ken Marino, Adam Scott, Martin Starr, Jane Lynch (Season 1) and the super cute Lizzy Caplan. I am hearing rumors of issues with holding onto the cast in future seasons (they already lost Jane Lynch right before the Season 1 finale, Megan Mullally is doing alright in her place so far in Season 2).

Exec produced by Paul Rudd. Fred Savage directs most of the episodes (attention Always Sunny fans). The cameos are off the charts.. and watching the whole thing just to get to the Steve Guttenberg episode in Season 2 is a must.



Do you ride?

    what do you think of Megan Mullaly in the Jane Lynch role? Obviously a different character (I'm guessing they are going for aloof soccer mom?), but I am having trouble formulating an opinion on her yet. She's had a couple great jokes though, so I can't hatt.

    Because if it was on HBO it'd most likely be better.

    love it. It was sort of a slow starter in season 1, but I loved it by the end. I haven't seen season 2 yeat, but netflix streaming sounds like I need to jump on that. I've been wanting to watch season 2. Anything with Lizy Caplan is a plus.

    Funny show Someone on the board last year mentioned it and I have downloaded and watched all episodes. The Porn awards episode from last year was a classic.

    roman's look of disgust/reaction when the porn star mentioned dragons in a conversation about "sci-fi" is one of my favorite tv/movie moments in the past few years. love this show!

    The second season has been sketchy. They fucked up getting rid of Ron as the boss, imo.
