On that note, I watched A Young Doctors Notebook and Other Stories

I’m a pretty big Mad Men and by extension John Hamm fan so I gave it a look.

It started off pretty goddamned funny. It ends up Dark as ****.

I finished it a week or so ago and still don’t know where I’m at on it. It’s 8 episodes so it’s an easy watch and I’m glad I did. But at the end of it all it hangs with a guy.

I’d encourage you guys to watch it and share your thoughts, just understand it’s not light and funny like it starts out as.

Specifics in the spoiler

Spoiler!

It is really a hardcore coming of age story following a dark ass path. The tone of the episodes follow a naive kid that develops an addiction and ends up heavy as hell. Really made me think. There isn’t a lot that can affect me much anymore - maybe I’m old and jaded like the doctor - but it really got me thinking.

But the massive change in tone and the short episode structures can turn a guy off. And as heavy as it gets I can see how people hate it.

But it’s worth a watch IMO.
