I'm so excited! Except for the fact that I now understand it will be a summer program. I was hoping it would become fall/winter with more episodes. It was hard to tell first season what it would be.

Seems I saw June 24. But I was so excited to see the ad - I had worried so much that it wouldn't really be renewed (even though I'd read and heard that it would be) that I barely looked for at details. I did hear "summer series". And it seems to me I saw June 24th. It could have been July (I hope not). I'll look for the ad again tonight. I usually end up watching HBO on weekend evenings.

And I don't plan to miss an episode either! Best new show in a long time, imo!! Can't wait!

the TP first became mainstream and they were pretending to be non-partisan and independent. I wonder what happened with that?

It's just actors (including a very fetching lady shown "off camera"!!) relaying facts.

I guess I just don't get it. There are some great tv shows on right now, but having seen 3 minutes of this one, I can't imagine why I'd watch 3 more.
