Awesome, that's a great cast. Hadn't seen anything about it before, but I'm on board with anything David Simon.

Just a reminder that this kicks off tonight. Reviews are exceedingly positive.

How was it? Should I fire up the pilot?

Fairly compelling. The liberal characters are presented as caricatures, which surprises me considering the creative team. The main cast is really solid and likeable, including Jim Belushi(!).

Show is looking pretty decent. Through episode 4.

What did you all think? I thought it was pretty good. I didn't know it was a true story. Sucks what happened at the end.

All in all worth the time.
