    it’s not not funny but it’s getting better as the series goes and he becomes more comfortable as an actor

    I think it's pretty funny. It's not a straight comedy, but there's a lot of humor in it. One of those shows you either really like, or probably dont care for at all.

    I thought it was solid for developing two of the secondary characters but barely showing the main character was weird

    I want to criticize it, but at the same time we all know what lil dicky music is like and we should not be surprised at this getting weird for a while. Also felt like they shoehorned some Dave Burd into other characters lines this week.

    I’m enjoying the show. The last episode was...different. Not really sure what to think. Episode three was ridiculous. My wife and I were choking at the last scene.

    Show's definitely better than I thought it would be. I wouldn't call it "great" but pretty much every episode has left me saying I'll watch next week too. I think it's got some potential since we all know where the story is going to go.

    Really enjoyed the Els episode. The wood shirts killed me.

    I'm curious to see if they accelerate Dave's career as is or if they go down the "Molly" path and we deal with a break up.

    It makes sense, LD and Glover have similar paths in the industry, Glover just happens to be one of the most all around talented humans alive.

    Glover was a writer/actor too, but both started with non serious rap then moved into more writing/producing there own stuff. It's by no means parallel but there are similarities.

    Didn’t LD go from rapping to acting? And Glove acting to rapping? Wasn’t it the opposite?

    Glover's first mixtape came out before Community, but his rap and acting careers kind of took off at the same time.

    Dicky was an accountant or something like that before he became a rapper. Glover was in a comedy troupe and was hired as a writer on 30 rock but was never really a comedic rapper - he actually started touring as childish gambino a few months after he released his first EP

    Like Earth or hate it he still managed to be at the head of a project with like 25 of the biggest names in pop. Plus developing a TV show and touring. I don’t fault the guy with limited resources relative to a music superstar for not putting an album together in that span.

    it’s 2020 and the need to put out an album to gain revenue is no longer. he tours, has endorsements and releases one-off singles that get 20 million views in their first 24 hours. He’s doing just fine shying away from the traditional model
