Sick show.
Just caught up and watched Season 1 and Episode 1 of season 2.

For any fans of Entourage definitely check it out. Mark Wahlberg produces this one too.

Its definitely not the same thing though so don't just dismiss it if you weren't the biggest fan of entourage.

Its about two young guys trying to make it big in NYC, not going to say in what industry (not any type of show business) to avoid spoilers but its great to watch if you have any sort of entrepreneurial spirit.

Any fans?

Fantastic show, Kid Cudi is in it too. When did season 2 start? Time to DL it

I saw a chunk of a first season episode and couldn't get into it. Maybe it was just bad timing for me, or it was a weaker episode. Some day I'll give it another shot.

Very good show, i would recommend it if you like entourage, story is very different but does have some similarities.

Is it me or does HBO jerk everyone around with weeks between episodes, half seasons, etc.
They did it with this and with Entourage too. A little tired of it, you get into a show and then they take a 2 week hiatus.

The gap between season 1 and season 2 was over a year, which is more frustrating than anything.

Waiting for Curb, Entourage and How to Make it in America is fucking hard.

I wish they had 20 episode seasons with 4/5 month hiatus and back

Also impossible to build a fan base when a show has one 8 episode season, more then a year break and then another (im assuming) short season.

I don't give it more then another season just because of this alone. It's not Entourage yet where you can start fucking around with the viewers and they'll put up with it

and any mainstream tv show with Avicii in it gets a lifetime pass from my books:

THere was such a long delay between season 1 and 2 cause the ratings for season 1 were not that great, so HBO were hesitant to sign on for another year, but then DVD sales picked up and word about the show got around, so now its getting a bit more attention from a wider audience than the first time around.

^this.

So many fucking shows out there, including really good ones. It's hard to get people to watch sometimes.

Really like this series. One thing, though - either Cudi's acting is really bad or it's his character but Rachel has an amazing rack and a really nice butt. Just a feel-good show. Also, Nancy is a babe. Marky Mark seems to have his hand in anything good (Boardwalk Empire).

Great show, only seen the first 4 episodes of Season 1, but I hope to finish it soon!

Yeah, give it another shot. I thought the first half of the first season was kind of boring, but I'm glad I stuck with it, it got a lot better.

Yah 1st season was decent, I got so hooked on Season 2 though, I just caught up.

1. Nancy is so damn hot with that cute little smile on her face.

2. What the hell is the point of Rachels role now? Her shit is annoying, are they just trying to show how things can change? How Ben/Cam were nothing and she was making money?

8 eps is not enough! Hopefully the gap between seasons won't be as long this time.

Season 1:February 14, 2010

Season 2:October 2, 2011

Season 3: ??

finally caught up.

Fuck they better not kill the show. Season 2 was unreal.

I'm calling it now, this show is better then Entourage.

Jlude

12-12-2011, 10:06 PM

Better than entourage.. wow that's a bold statement.

It's filling the gap that entourage left... 3 seasons ago.

dj_patm

12-12-2011, 10:46 PM

Probably has a lot to do with the last 4 years of Entourage being rather weak and How To Make It developing strongly
