Started Dave on FX through Hulu. Starts out with a bang and is pretty funny so far.

Wasn't planning on watching because TV sitcom shows are too basic and vanilla for me, but this is pretty solid so far. I know FX is a little different as a network, but I can't believe what they can get away with language wise. 

I just finished the season.  It surprised me with some substance.

Is there new language guidelines? FX is a bit different, but still regular network. But they talk like it's an HBO or Showtime show.

I noticed fx loosening things quite a bit the last few years.  I remember being surprised by the f bombs when they did the oj simpson thing.

That's surprising as it's only 8 years old. 

Do they have Ocean's 12, too?

Just checked, and no they do not. Any other movies you would like me to look up?

I think the language guidelines apply to over the air broadcasts.  

FX is considered cable, and is probably trying to go towards the more mature audiences instead of the line between family and adult.  The big issue is sponsors, so they can only go so far.  HBO and Showtime doesn't have to answer to sponsors, only subscribers.

It really was terrible. I think they but admitted it was a reason for them to all just get paid, and hang out in Europe together.

I'll have think about that. Both are pretty gross.

The salad at Northwoods Inn with bleu cheese is very good. The dressing is mild, and that helps an awful lot.

but it’s even better with thousand island dressing instead of bleu cheese.

Gotcha.

I haven't watched much on FX. Sons of Anarchy seemed to toe the line while Snowfall was pretty basic. Dave is on some next level shit. I wasn't expecting what I heard but makes it authentic and works even though Joe Christian will dislike it.

Netflix:  After Life Season 2  A really subdued British comedy dealing with life after someone dies.  Season 2 follows the same line as season 1.  It's really well done but might not be for everyone.
