I think the show is OK, I hope it gets better. But the original music they're using is kinda weak. It's a similar problem that Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip had, where they kept telling us the comedy sketches were top notch, but then they'd show them and they weren't. At least this show has existing 70s music to fall back on. The actor playing the lead singer of the Nasty Bits isn't very good. Hopefully he'll OD or something and we'll be done with him. I think he's Mick Jagger's son though, so that's not likely. I also long for the day that shows set in the 1970s in NYC will stop using Andy Warhol as set decoration. Or at least include a character who doesn't idolize him. I want to see a scene of Richie watching an Andy Warhol 'film' and then saying: "Wow, this is utter bullshit." And then the building collapses around him.

Narcissus1916 posted:"Difficult Men" and Alan Sepinwall's tv book go into some of the problem HBO has had. I read an article that looked at what hour-long shows they had that were solid, and at this point it's basically Game of Thrones and...The Leftovers? True Detective might not come back, and might not be welcomed back after the last season. Westworld is apparently having some issues as well. Without a 2nd season of Vinyl, they might have a big drought. Better to renew it and get it in the pipeline and try to fix the issues.
