The big twist on the season is that it'll turn out to be Jonah Hill's kid.

For real.

They really fucked up making this kid annoying. He could be a dweeb, but why does he need to be so annoying. And I can't see how this kid is the product of the two of them.

The writer's were annoying as hell too.

Imperioli is a great addition.

Are most of us ahead? They've been putting the following week's episode up On Demand and on Showtime Anytime.

Without spoiling anything, I'll just say that I'm enjoying the Hank/Levon relationship. Hank being a dad to an awkward teenage boy is much better than him being a dad to an annoying teenage girl.

Two episodes in and Hank has yet to bed a young hot female that he just met? You've disappointed us, Hank Moody.

Anyone else recognize the current ATT girl as the first girl in the auditions? I knew she had a rack on her.

She was on a few episodes of this latest season of House of Lies too.

Duchovny is Jewish, actually, but I get your point. This guy doesn't look at all like the offspring of these two people. He looks more like the son of Jonah Hill and Rosie O'Donnell. Reminds me of Shia Lebouf supposedly being the son of Indiana Jones and Marian when he really would be more believable as the offspring of Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand.

This show has gotten so off-the-rails it's not even fun for me anymore. I watch it still because I started with it from the beginning and really used to love it and since this is the last season, I might as well see it through, but JEESH has it gotten bad.

Once again we have the same old Hank chases Karen, Karen is about to fall for him again, some new information comes out, Karen gets unreasonably enraged and calls the whole thing off. How she can be mad at Hank because a woman hid a child he never knew about from him (coming from an affair that was pre-Karen anyway) is just lazy lazy writing. Just so godawfully lazy. At least we haven't had screaming-naked-Runkel yet. Seriously the past 3 seasons they should've just renamed it The Screaming Naked Runkel Show.

This show was always goofy but it used to have a nice dark undercurrent of writerly alcoholism, pussy-fever, and attempts at redemption. They've thrown it all out and just made it a parody of itself. I can't even anymore with this fucking show.

yeah, this show is bad and the formula is just so forced that I have no idea why I still watch it.

This is so frustrating. If I were in Hank's shoes, I'd just tell Karen to fuck off. She keeps faulting him for things that aren't his fault and keeps stringing him along. It's just so tired.

At least we haven't had screaming-naked-Runkel yet. Seriously the past 3 seasons they should've just renamed it The Screaming Naked Runkel Show.
I always considered it the "How Low will Runkel Go Show". He's not always naked, but he's almost always embarrassing himself. I've lost track of how many times he's embarrassed himself. Just this last episode (episode 3) he jizzed in his pants in front of everyone. Terrible, terrible writing.
