He was also on The Sarah Silverman Program, Between Two Ferns, and David Wain's The Ten.

Not to mention multiple appearances on podcasts like Comedy Bang Bang/Comedy Death Ray, Doug Loves Movies, etc. He's tight with the LA comedy community.

Loved the Jon Hamm reveal. :lol:

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

I was going to post about the same thing.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Hamm playing himself was fucking hysterical! :lol: Him trying to leave to get back to the Mad Men set and not being allowed to leave was great!

For those interested, Season 1 has been added to Netflix and its in HD.

Season 2 wrapped up (I think it was the finale for good). Can't say I liked it that much, it just took a nose dive when Dave turned out to be more than just a prankster. Alice deserved better too.

First season was gold but it just really didn't work for me this season.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

The Alice part was surprisingly dark.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Yeah, I was shocked about the Alice thing.

The Jon Hamm stuff was fun, however.

Mark Heap was a nice surprise.

It was also good to see Russ Tamblyn (Riff from West Side story) playing Todd's dad.

Overall it is kind of a funny ending, considering that it is a departure from every other show where things kind of work out, somehow.

And future father-in-law in real life.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

The Jon Hamm stuff was good, but yeah, I too was let-down by the second season.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Wow, another cradle robber. ;)

Okay, not even in the same league as Doug Hutchison, but still a pretty big gap.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Not sure I cared for the ending. I love dark humor, but the dark material here just added shock value, no humor for me. The North Korea stuff was anticlimactic because they teased it all season. I did like the reveal about why Dave did it, and the Will Arnett courtroom stuff was great.

I think this second season had plenty of great moments, but I think the show worked better in season one when it just seemed like Todd was a bumbling idiot with horrible luck. Revealing that he was being set up to fail sort of took some of the fun out of it for me.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

The season got too dark at the end and lost some of its charm as it wore on.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Completely agree with DRG and PhantomStranger. This season had some great moments (Todd getting alice the job at the restaurant) but I prefer Todd the bumbling idiot as opposed to Todd vs the powerful noble with a revenge plot.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

I guess I liked how it wound things up, very clever and unique for sure, but I likewise didn't like parts of it, like Todd killing Alice. The Dave storyline I did like, as well as Todd choosing Korea because he liked sushi. Clever overall, but I'm not bummed it's over either.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

I have to disagree. I thought season one was hit and miss, but season two was on fire (sometimes literally). I loved Spike Jonze doing his Sherlock schtick, Will Arnett knocked it out of the park, and the Mountford stuff worked because it made it seem like everything would work out in the end, so when it didn't, it was even funnier.

I didn't catch the Alice thing at first, but now it makes the line "I'm not sure her heart is in the right place" even better.

Season two was smart, ballsy, and hilarious. I loved it.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Well... this got renewed for a 3rd season... http://insidetv.ew.com/2014/10/07/if...todd-margaret/

I'm ready for more summers in Leeds.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

I was not expecting that. Maybe they'll go for a Sledgehammer solution to the world ending.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Yeah, I was very surprised to see a tweet from Sharon Horgan about a new season. Looking forward to it!

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Spectacularly unexpected and awesome news.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Wow, cool news. I loved the first two seasons.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Loved season one.
Not crazy about season two.

Hope this means they had a good idea for season three.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Wow, had all but forgotten about this show. Glad to see it's returning.

Re: The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret - IFC Fridays 10e/9c
 

Very pleased that it's coming back for another season. Just ordered S2 on Amazon for $13.49.
