Anyone else watch this? 30 minute comedy on Showtime, I think its 3rd or 4th season. Matt LeBlanc stars as Matt LeBlanc. Now that Veep has dropped off a bit I think this is the best 30 minute comedy on tv now.

This show is awesome. Matt LeBlanc is hysterical and who would have guessed anyone would ever say that. The back and forth between Matt and Merk is great.

Merk: Hey, you're an actor so act like there's a window there.

Matt: Hey, you're a producer so go fuck yourself!

This is Season 5.

The first two seasons were excellent. The introduction of Tim has dragged the show down quite a bit, IMO, but Sunday's episode was relatively Tim-free and much better than the season premier the week before.

yea I agree that Tim sucks, hopefully the situation changes at some point this season and we don't have to watch him much longer.


On the other hand, LeBlanc hosting a game show is a pretty fantastic change from previous seasons.


I also think the chick with the goofy facial expression has jumped the shark a bit. It was hilarious when it was something you noticed in the background, but starting last season they've really overemphasized it to the point where its gone a bit over the top.

Myra, the head of comedy? Yeah, it was originally a funny juxtaposition that someone always making that face and that sound was the head of comedy for a TV network but it's gotten a little long in the tooth after five seasons.

Most of the stuff with Castor Soto was kind of dumb, too.

There were many LOL moments in the first several seasons, though, and I am looking forward to a return to that if they get rid of Tim soon.

The stuff with Matt's stalker was good as were the events surrounding Merk's dad's funeral.

I only watched the first season. I enjoyed it but not enough to catch the rest.

Maybe I will eventually.
