    Looks good. McKay has been killing it for awhile now.

    It is wild that this is what killed his production company and friendship with Will Ferrell. There's a good article at Slash Film about it (and other movie sites) but the gist is... Their production company was behind this. Will wanted to play Dr. Buss, McKay and some of the other producers and HBO people couldn't see it. McKay went behind his back and cast one of Will's best friends John C. Reilly in the role. After that Will dissolved the company and told McKay to essentially f*** off and have a nice life.

    Wow.
    I’m a big fan of both Reilly and Will. Crappy deal for Farrel, but I’m still super stoked one of my favorites is portraying the great Dr.

    I don't see Linda Rambis anywhere. How is this supposed to even be watchable without the key players involved? /bitter sarcasm

    HBO should sue Jeanie for making the current team so terrible that it might take away from the general interest in this show.

    I have a bunch of TV shows in my backlog I’ve been wanting to catch up on. Binging TV shows has been a welcome distraction from how terrible the Lakers have been.

    Watching Laker games is bad enough. Fat chance in hell I’m going to be spending more of my free time watching a show that reminds me about this team.

    A friend of mine got a screener of the first three episodes and says it's even better than it looks.

    Reddit just reminded me of this show apparently in the works as well



    Have we considered the possibility that Jeanie is just a next level artistic genius, and this entire season has actually been this “comedy series based on the Lakers front office”?

    lol yes the front office has been big comedy this season. But I don’t think laugh to keep from crying is the sort of comedy that works on tv.
