 It's jarring to watch The Rock be this humble motherfucker that life shits on.

 If they paired this show up w/ Silicon Valley it would be an amazing hour of tv.

Kumail as Spencer, Dwayne as Dinesh. You listening HBO?

TELL me you wouldn't want to see The Rock spoil his cousin's kickstarter, or The Beta Male handle Ricky.

Maybe swap an actor an ep so Jack Black is Gilfoyl.

I just meant have the shows air back to back but you went somewhere amazing with this and now I have to follow...

 I wonder if the shake up to the status quo at the season's end is Rock& Rob having to start from scratch after getting canned, then taking on clients of ALL spurts backgrounds.

 Props to this show's musical selection - great use of Rappin' 4 Tay's Player's Club.

Also, after that intro I spent the entire episode holding my breath, convinced someone was getting into a car accident.

I know I watched something this season, but I have literally zero idea what.

If someone asked me to describe the plot or arc of this season I'd just be stumped. At least Entourage had 'Vince can make the movie / can't make the movie / can make the movie"

Still, it's a better show than entourage, mainly because I don't (yet) violently hate all the characters.

Vernon got paid & Joe got laid.

 Season finale tonight and I'm sure I can convince nobody of this but I honestly felt that the one key scene towards the end - Spencer addresses the players - was earned and the best work The Rock has ever done. Still hurting from the night before and disheveled, he laid it all out and it just resonated.
