One thing that really struck me with Hannah’s character in the pilot is that last scene where we see her take the $20 that he parents left for her and then the $20 for the housekeeper. You’re showing a not very sympathetic side of her.
No, it’s like, “You just took that from a Mexican lady with five children because you want a fucking buy some fancy sandwich.”
What does it say about her?
I think it shows that she’s a little scared, that she’s a little desperate, but also that she’s a little entitled and like there’s a part of Hannah that probably feels like the world’s not giving me what I need and I need to take it. And she thinks she’s being proactive and she thinks that somehow like she’s owed this.
Of course it will cause her tremendous guilt later and she’ll probably confess to her parents in a year and try to pay them back. But, at that moment, like it was a moment where I sort of announce this is what the show is. You’re not going to necessarily be with this girl at every – you’re not going to necessarily agree with this girl’s every move.

bad company should be playing in the background of every scene in this show

I expected the Mamet kid to be like her character in Mad Men, which has nothing to do with the quality of the show.

Was thinking about the comparisons with Louis CK and the big difference is that Louis's horrible sex scenes actually have a punchline. There was no payoff to that scene, it was just "wow, they're both horrible and I didn't need to see that." And Louis seems to give a shit about the world around him, whether that's his daughters or the awesome gay neighbors who save him, etc.
― Kiarostami bag (milo z), Monday, 16 April 2012 18:33 (twelve years ago) link
eh his 'give a shit about the world' is kinda forced and self-congratulatory - let's have people call me a good father and show me being a good father on a show I write and star in
― iatee, Monday, 16 April 2012 18:35 (twelve years ago) link
yeah louis ck has a good schtick but lets not read too much into it

HS did you watch this show? Should I?
― wolf kabob (ENBB), Monday, 16 April 2012 18:37 (twelve years ago) link
i thought it was p funny, and people are prob making too big a deal out of it

apparently Louis CK's newest material features a routine on why, if you're a stand-up comic from Silver Lake, you need to get out of the game and why CK hates you.

Louie comparison leads to the question of what a gal Cassavetes would be like--gal equivalent of Husbands.

― lag∞n, Monday, 16 April 2012 18:42 (twelve years ago) link
All Louie comparisons are way off the mark and I imagine anyone making them has never seen/understood either show.
