    Such a sweet episode. I’m so glad that Ben Kingsley and Yahya are in this, they both shine and play wonderfully off each other.

    I have to guess this means that Simon did something, but Damage Control can’t prove it.

    The acting and writing of this show is really working for me. Kingsly as Slattery is amazing. Joey Pants’ character is amazing. I’m so glad he took this. “Yeah, folks don’t know how hard auditions are. Of course, I’m offer only now so I can’t relate.”

    I lived in LA from 2010 to 2022, and still love the city, and this way people talk about show biz and stuff is so wonderfully local. “I got into Venice before even Arnold” is so smarmy and local and I love it. The lady reading lines badly at the self-tape studio was also just great. This show is so much sharper and funnier than most of Marvel’s shows and movies so far.bThis show reminds me of Bojack Horseman, and I’m really onboard.
