I'm not sure why they made her character be in to it, other than to show she may be a bit peculiar herself. I thought the show was pretty strong overall. I was a bit surprised with the ending, but I guess it fits. That's where he couldn't keep it up any longer, so that was the end. I would guess this is a one and done type of show which probably fits best. I would hope Cross would look to do another project on IFC though. |

I know Amber Tamblyn was in this show but I dont ever recall seeing her. Who did she play? Was Dave the one behind hiring Wilts?

Well that doesn't exactly explain brushing teeth at the table, eating plates and printing deserts....
Watch Anthony Bourdain's "No Reservations" a few times, you'll see a few of these places. One notable one was where the chef created a plate designed to look like roadkill. -jason |

That would take us right up to the point with Todd in the dock that starts every episode off. |

Really good end to a great first season. I can't wait for the second season.
I figured they would have the police show up to Todd's apartment and it be all bloody, but never expected his neighbor and Wilts to be having sex, in addition to blood. What did that box (Alice Rape Kit) say before Todd cleaned it off and removed some of the writing? I can't remember. Todd's dad showing up at the end was icing on the cake. I love how every time Todd tells anyone he is American he also throws "but I spent my summers in Leeds" on at the end. I'm waiting for the liquor license to come back into the picture as well.

Will be very interesting to see where they go in the second season. |

I really dug this show, I'm bummed though because I thought we had one more episode to go this season. I hope it got renewed as it's managed to recapture the awkward humor of the original UK Office and Extras which I loved.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
The last episode was the best of the season. The deaf tour was so wrong, but so funny. :lol:

Am I the only one who also loves the theme song to the show (by none other than the great Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr)? Definitely has a great Smiths sound to it! If you google around the IFC website has a nice MPEG4 audio download of it which I was pumped to find. |

^ Nice. Looks like it'll be paired with Portlandia season 2. :up:

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
Great! I'm looking forward to some even poorer judgment and decisions and acted out by Cross and company.

We know this because Brent Wilts told Doug Whitney (Spike Jonze) that someone named Milfred called him up and offered him the position. At the very end of the episode, the chauffeur called Dave, Mr. Milfred. So obviously there's more going on than meets the eye.

I think I found a new ringtone. |

You won't win an argument by raping her.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
I watched all seven episodes over the weekend and the show gets funnier with each episode. I wasn't feeling the first couple, but started to get into it with the third episode.
What's is Dave's angle here? Rich guy screwing with the working class? And Jon Hamm sure has a lot of comedy friends in Hollywood - 30 Rock, SNL/Bridesmaids, Children's Hospital, Robot Chicken, now Todd Margaret? |
