Might be worth watching for Hamm, who was stellar in the latest Fargo season. No doubts about how the writers of that show feel about conservatives....

I could only watch first and second episodes, terrible IMO.

When the guy cut off his own little finger with his pocketknife is when I turned off the tv.

The Jerry Jones scene is one of the stranger things I’ve seen on television. Jerry delivers this heartfelt, teary eyed monologue about the importance of family in business. Presumably this was all written by Taylor for him?

Also, it’s pretty clear when you watch it that he is not in the same room with Jon Hamm and Billy Bob Thornton when this is shot. I guess Taylor just had him read this monologue separately and used a double for coverage.

It's a weird scene in multiple ways. It basically justifies nepotism in business and I kept wondering if it was a subtle endorsement of Trump's business approach.

And yet... Jones knocks his monologue out of the park!

Isn't Trump's approach more like FoxNewspotism?
