House of Lies
« on: February 27, 2012, 10:57:47 AM »
Anyone else watching this?  Showtime channel.

Highly recommend!  Someone told me about it so I picked up all of the on demand episodes and started watching. 

Premise Don Cheadle is a Consulting Manager.  They go into businesses and try to tell them whats wrong and how to make their company run better.  Their true value though is to go into company and get them so enthralled with them that they want to hire them full time as consultants.  Cheadle will periodically stop the show and talk to the camera to either explain or to say something humorous.  On his team are two actors who I have never seen before and Kristen Bell who is very easy on the eyes.

I’ve been watching the show. I think it would be better if it was an hour long. They try and cram too much shit into 30 minutes. The two sidekick white guys remind me a Floyd the barber and Howard the county clerk from Mayberry. They bring a steaming load of nothing to the show.

Agree on Howard Sprague being irrelevant in Mayberry but you are so wrong for throwing Floyd under the bus. As discussed in a thread last year, we all know Floyd was banging Aunt Bee and Miss Clara in the barber shop "after hours".

Agree on Howard.  Now as for Floyd...you take that back right now or we're meeting behind the Sonic in Cullman.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

All of y'all best pump your brakes before you start criticizing anything about The Andy Griffith Show.  That's a national treasure to the whole United States of North Carolina.

ITS YEE SHOKSS MERLE! YEE SHOKS! 
Thanks Gomer!

I love the show actually, but Howard Sprague and Warren were both useless. Barney was the man. I got to give it to him, he was always trying to fuck Thelma Lou 6 ways to Sunday. I give him credit for trying.

Hey now; Howard was the best fill-in bowler on the Mayberry Bowling League as I recall; and didn't he also write the garden column for the Mayberry Gazette?  He was also a member of the Town Council.

But, Barney was the man.
