Agree! I'm really enjoying it. I like shows like this where someone is pretending to be something they're not. There was a show called "The Riches" about a family of Travelers who assumed the identity of a wealthy family, living in their house, etc. I loved it.

The Riches was fantastic.

I’m kind of losing interest in Your Friends and Neighbors. I enjoy John Hamm and Amanda Pete, but the rest of the characters just aren’t pulling me in.

You don't love his friend Barney? He's my favorite on the show.

I do like him, I think it is more that most of the characters are underwritten. I find myself scrolling or reading for at least half of the show because it feels like filler. Sometimes I wonder if having Coop go into criminal enterprise as opposed to just more ordinary thievery was a mistake. It feels like they are going for more depth than say, The Residence, but packing in so many characters that they can't get there. I love the concept of the show, and I think the actors are doing the best they can with the material. It's just kind of becoming a rice cake for me.

DP. Poor Barney. His wife just keeps spending money they don't have and his in-laws clearly despise him. I'm wondering when he's going to tell his wife that they can't afford all of that and I'm curious if she'll be understanding and supportive or if she'll leave him. Very depressing storyline.

I keep wondering how Coop uses the cash to pay for things - bills, etc. He can't exactly deposit it in his bank account. So I'm wondering if a money laundering scheme will develop, a la Breaking Bad.

The house cleaner is too unrealistic to me. Too attractive and witty and intelligence to have been a cleaning lady.

+1
Not to mention unrealistic that she and Nick wouldn't have been involved. And how does one tiny woman clean that gigantic house by herself? Does she spend nights there? I noticed she had her own room/bathroom.

He has misplaced pride and should have taken the money or told his wife they could not afford the Reno.

I had a hard time seeing the mom from Kim’s Convenience in a rich lady role

I LOVE Barney! I thought John Hamm was gorgeous in Mad Men, not so much in this series. It’s not even that he’s aged, it’s something else and I can’t figure it out.

He hasn't aged well. That's what years of alcohol addiction will do to you. His character lacks Don Draper's charm, too.

I like the Barney character, but dude needs to divorce his princess wife. It's absurd.

Eh, I think he's aged well. I don't know many men that look that good in their mid-50s. DiCaprio is younger and looks more like the 'poorly aged addict' type.

Also, did anyone notice that Hamm's wife (Anna Osceola) had some minor roles in the other episodes? I found that funny.

OMG, you're right! I knew I recognized her from somewhere. She's one half of the lesbian couple, right?

On a side note, I found it so weird that the other lesbian hung out with all the husbands at Nick's that night.

That’s how they met so that totally makes sense.

The actress playing Coop’s sister is really off-putting. Her voice is fine but some of her line readings are terrible and she’s charmless.
