[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone watching the new season. This is probably my favorite guilty-pleasure soap right now. Spoiler-y stuff below so don't read if you haven't watched or don't want to know anything.

I love Jon Hamm generally but he didn't do much for me in the first two episodes. He's playing this role a little more tough guy and with less humor -- definitely feels distinct from both Don Draper and the more recent comedic roles he's played. But I'm curious to see where it goes especially with the past link to Stella.

Speaking of Stella, I hope we get her character rounded out a bit this season. Looks likely. It's shallow but I love her look and her style on the show. One thing I like about the show is how stylish many of the women are, and not just in that TV news way (like Alex and Bradley). Stella, Laura, and Mia are all versions of very stylish, well-off, powerful NY media women and I love their clothes.

I am very glad to be done with Mitch. I think moving the show forward totally past Mitch and past Covid will be refreshing. I was still hooked last season but it was weird and didn't always work. I think they are back in their groove now.

I loved the Tig Notaro sighting and hope she comes back. This show manages to cast the most randomly delightful people sometimes. Tig, Mark Duplass, Greta Lee. It's kind of a silly show with really high production values and then the casting always feels like a weird stunt but I love it.[/quote]

Tig is great. A few years ago she had her own show, can't remember where-maybe HBO.  it was slow to get into but really sweet and funny.  I love her cast in this role with Jon Hamm since you would expect her would only hire hot young women as his "assistants"[/quote]

Her show was "One Mississippi" and I loved it too.  I was hoping she'd be somewhat funny in this role (in her dry, sardonic way), but so far she's not funny at all.

I am still holding out hope that Notaro and Hamm will get a chance to be funny together, as I could see each of their comedic styles playing off each other well. But yeah, so far they've been playing it really straight.[/quote]
