Yeah, I'm into season 2 thus far. I didn't really enjoy season 1 as much as most.

I still have a hard time believing Vaughn and McAdams in those roles. Beginnings are still scrambled but coming together. Taylor Kitsch is knocking his role out of the park IMO. Very well acted.

I'm reserving my judgement so far on Riggins but up to this point he's still....well, Riggins.

Taylor Kitsch has always been better than his roles - John Carter, Gambit, and the guy in Battleship just didn't give him much to work with. He's really making me believe this character, and I have high hopes for him as the season goes on.
Vince Vaughn, on the other hand, is a disaster, and he's diminishing the whole show. |

I don't see Vaughn's acting as all that problematic. Kitsch, I think, is actually overacting, trying too hard to be intense, PTSD-guy. McAdams has done a really good job, and Farrell is consistently excellent.

Maybe this role will get Kitsch a few more big budget movies he can flop !

Woody and MM made that show amazing. The actual story? Meh. It was certainly weak in some areas. |

Yeah, underneath it all it was Dirty Harry - a lot of disenchanted-cop psychology while the chase for a crazed loner takes its toll on personal lives - and it was a little disappointing when all of the King in Yellow talk turned out to be just babbled nonsense. The genius, though, was in the telling - the setting, the direction, and the performances.
Also, unsurprisingly, Alexandra Daddario said her phone hasn't stopped ringing since HBO aired episode 2. |
