I didn't really like that shootout in the woods last episode, felt too action movie for this show, probably a network note from some Prep Exec imo. and Lizzy's death was telegraphed early but holy shit did they set that up awkwardly with her standing in the middle of a bridge lol. whatever though.

Btw imo the second half has devolved into Robbie doing stupid shit. Started strong with “garbage men casing houses” but it sort of unraveled. Also the bag of money/fentanyl is a McGuffin and may have caused a Plot Hole.

Also idk about the Grasso actor. Seems like an HBO stock player who shouldn’t be playing a cop. I sort of stopped believing his performance at some point. I guess I just don’t associate Italians with bikers. The euro actors nail the weird Philly accent but they don’t understand the essence of Scum. Also how did Robbie practically beat the biker’s ass and Mark Ruffalo beat the other biker’s ass? The exact opposite of what would happen irl.

I was thinking the same about the Grasso actor, did not really sell the whole conflicted Catholic who is also a biker gang informant (??). just a weird character that doesn't make sense to me. really the only flawless actor in the show is that Maeve chick imo.

Conflicted catholic yeah bc Jews have to remind us god doesn’t exist I guess, no other point to it

Also when he basically admitted guilt to Ruffalo I was just like… that’s not what a crooked cop does. Crooked cops aren’t Losery lapsed Catholics. Proles either believe in god or they don’t. They either have faith or think it’s all made up. They don’t hem and haw. They needed another episode to show a flashback of how bikers beat Grasso’s molester stepdad over the head with a 32x and buried him under a Trailer and made him swear an oath of loyalty and ride off with them in a Sidecar.

Dennis Miller Live, airing from 1994 to 2002, showcased the comedian's signature blend of current events, politics, and biting humor. The show's format featured a monologue followed by a segment of field reporting or an interview with a guest. Known for his quick wit and acerbic commentary, Miller's take on controversial topics, such as the O.J. Simpson trial, solidified his status as a fearless, thought-provoking comedian and a standout voice on HBO.

Trying to sync a sleepover with your bros with the night Real Sex is on and trying to stay up playing Tecmo Bowl and NBA Jam until the 2am start time or 4am repeat while gakked out on 3L of Dew, a box of Gushers, a bag of Cool Ranch Doritos, and a large pep pizza. I’d kill for that type of excitement and emotional bond today.

Yet it was still the only HQ moving image porn available to most of us back then. Actual porn videos were things of legend, and Playboy, Penthosue, High Society, etc. was all tan plastic and extremely tame.

There were absolutely let down episodes, though. Would keep waiting for something not disgusting and the credits would roll.

That was always the backup. There were some dry/non-nude ones, though, I think - more regular R-rated love scenes than the 1991 suburban swingers floppin/danglin around in Real Sex.

Btw I’m not really talking about the series per se as much or the comedy specials, I’m talking about like 98% of the airtime where you were paying some ungodly subscription fee and the movies were always shit you had never, ever heard of. But still it was better than watching something on cable with Commercials so it seemed good. But regular cable was more likely to have an actual good movie on at any given time imo, it would just be butchered and Ruinous.

They played the same few movies for months because that’s all they could license.

People keep mentioning Tales from the Crypt but that was really late 80s to early 90s and reruns were scarce. Back then you had to confine ‘’mature content” to weird late night time slots. Trying to catch Tales on HBO was like getting lucky and seeing MST3K on the Sci Fi Channel.

Now any old network can show awkward sex scenes and you can say fuck in Law and Order or whatever so HBO can’t survive on that alone.

That’s another thing I’ve never seen that Gen Xers talk about, MST3k.

Also there’s a trope you see if monster/sci fi movies being on extremely late at night but that never happened irl, just Conan and Adult Swim iirc. I would rather watch Mothra.

Hookers at the Point.

Oh and they kept Adebisi’s hat on by growing out his nappy hair a little bit and using it like nigger Velcro. We looked this up a few months ago back.
