If it is to be said, so it be, so it is. The sun has set on HBO/Max/MaxGoCo’s latest 9pm Sunday all killer no filler #1 show.
If we can just, you know, be, like, real, for a minute, yeah guys? Yeah? Sunday nights simply won’t be the same without a board meeting to get all hyped about. Tune on in to hear how this show was so effective, why we all say it’s Shakespearean, and why Uncle Ewan is the GOAT.
Maybe I was too hard on Tom, but that’s never been a problem for anyone before...
