They have said Stephen Root will be returning, so I hope Bill's okay. In the video, we see him start coughing then walk out of frame. In the next shot, everyone is wearing a mask and social distancing and Bill doesn't appear for the rest of the video.
Bill has been in promotional material where he is aged up, so I would guess he'll be there.

Toby Huss is replacing Johnny Hardwick (RIP) re: Dale's voice. Not sure what they will do with Lucky and Luanne.

If anyone hasn't checked it out yet, Poker Face is a lot of fun. Natasha Lyonne plays a woman on the run who travels from town to town living off the grid. She has an ability where she can immediately tell when someone is lying. So while she's hiding out in these different places, she ends up solving various crimes.

Every episode is its own stand-alone story, so it's a lot like TV of old where you can jump into any episode blind and you don't need to have watched the previous season/episodes.

I love it even though i can't stand her and her voice. More people need to watch. they have top notch guest appearances too.

Sorry but to come in and summarize the ending of an entire series? Don’t do that, and don’t rationalize it by saying it was what you expected.

I’ll edit my post to remove where I quoted you, definitely shouldn’t have done that.

Mobland is the best thing on TV since True Detective season 1 that I have watched.

Note: I have not watched everything!

Great cast, I'm working through it right now...and its got a great into song.

It is interesting because, they're Mob families so...I dont have a lot of sympathy for the vast majority of the characters. They're caught in a quagmire of their own making.

And Helen Mirren is just so absolutely unlikeable which tells you how good of a job she did. And so sue me, I'm a big fan of Tom Hardy and who doesnt love some Brosnan?

Its funny, Tom Hardy is probably the most likeable character, and yet the most violent. Plays that role really well.

I think Mirren and Brosnan enjoy playing the bad guy a lot, they are simply horrible people lol.

Spoiler!
This show was... disappointing.

Good cast for sure. Good first episode, but just didn't legs. Maybe it was over-hyped in that Apple renewed it for Season 2 before it aired (rare in the streaming environment)

Spoiler!


Also, Jon Hamm's narration was aggravatingly sped up. Like listening at 1.5x speed

was it good? I don't think so. But I will probably watch season 2 when nothing is on.

Ironic for a member of the cast of King of the Hill.

“Mistakes happen, man. And it’s my fault for, I guess, leaving something on,” Joss said. “Or if somebody came in and did something, who knows?”

So maybe... but given the apparent threats, and the homophobic fueled murder, his claims don't seem unreasonable. I'm not sure downplaying the series of events does any good either.

I haven't seen a source on that other than the husband's Facebook post.

I don't believe I'm downplaying anything. I'm just not willing to say this is a hate crime yet.

That's fair, there doesn't appear to be another source regarding the motive, and the couple certainly appeared to have a history of increasing drug abuse and the side effects that come from that.

An ugly situation regardless.
