Has anyone been watching this show on HBO? I feel like it took up to this third episode to really get rolling. I love Zach Galifianakis in it of course.

The latest episode had a psychotherapist in it though that just told it straight up how it is. I LOVED it. I loved that style: no sugar coating. Just truth.

I love it. I think it is getting better with every episode. I thought it was funny when Zach G. was talking about his penis going back into his body....

I like it. The writing is sharp, it has a feel of a stage play. It's filmed and produced in NYC.

Whats not to like, I like it. It's very, very likable.

I think it's very clever. The music in it is also fantastic.

Totally agree. Hence why I did not post about it until now. I am looking forward to watching the entire season :)

It's not online that I know of. It's HBO. I heard ninja video (http://www.ninjavideo.net/) is a good source for finding stuff to watch online though.

This is turning out to be one of the best TV shows I've seen. I'm still blown away at the production values, it's beautifully filmed.

Last week's episode with the blackmailer was fucking priceless. Yesterday's episode wasn't quite as good, but the finale next week looks like it's going to be side-splitting. (y)

i saw the episode with the Russian Tea Room and thoroughly enjoyed it...

you have to like Schwarzman going into this, IMO.

Bored to Death is not outright hurt your head funny like Curb your Enthusiasm can be, but it isn't intended to be. It's written tight, paced right and the scenes are all very well thought out.

I figured I wouldn't like this show either, but the potential for greatness is there unlike any other half hour sitcom I've seen the past few years, plus I'm a sucker for noir and as the ad says Bored to Death is a "Noir-otic comedy".

loving it.

perhaps more so because I get to stare at Jason Schwartzman's face alot and he reminds me of my fiance.
similar eyebrows, nose, excessive facial beauty marks, small stature.
oh god :/
