Anyone else following it?

A downbeat dramedy, but there were some nice touches and funny moments (inc. one laugh-out-loud line that still makes me chuckle) in last weekend's double bill (3 & 4), so I reckon I'll watch it all, and the second season.

Only other comedy series in the schedules that I'm currently watching is Brooklyn 99, though I'll watch another episode of The Week That Wasn't (Sky 1) - a bit on the fence with it.

I've already managed to miss an episode, but I like it!
Beautifully shot, too.

I hadn't noticed that. I'll pay more attention to the look of it next time.

It was good to hear some Michael Kiwanuka in the end credits to ep. 4.

Thank you!
Watch me forget again now...

I looked him up the second it finished and added him to my spotify. Such a good song.
The end of that ep was one of the gorgeously shot scenes - all late evening sun and trees.

This was the one that turned me on to him -

Saw him live last year which was pretty fab.

Just listened to some of Donald Glover's music tonight under the Childish Gambino moniker ("Sober"). Decent.

That 4th episode had the business with the young kid in the back of the car that cracked me up.
