Anyone else see the pilot?

I thought it was decent. It looks like it's gonna get better.

I basically thought the same thing, it was pretty good but the previews show promise.

The premiere bored me to tears. Hopefully it will get better. I'll probably give it a few more tries too.

Yeah, I found it a little dull, but I'll give it another watch.

I almost always find Jane Adams interesting, so there's still hope, but I agree that the pilot was dull.

It seemed to me like a long boring set up to a joke. Not sure where they can take it. One more try.

I found it pretty boring as well, but I'll give it another try next week. Interesting casting choices for Ray's kids. Very 21st century look to them.

did the pilot say how hung he was?

Nope. But, you can kinda see it a few times if you watch Stander.

yeah the 2nd episode did absolutely nothing for me.

Because of course you would only show butt shots of a guy who stars in a series called "Hung." Ya know what, if he were, SOMETHING would show up in the front of those coach's pants he wears. But zip nada zilch.

I really don't care for this show. It's not bad, but it's certainly not great. I sure hope it picks up.

Agreed, shh282.

It boggles the mind that an HBO series entitled Hung, with its premise and actors, can be so dull.

I gave it a shot but it sucks. Jane just can't play a convincing hustler--he's totally charmless.

I'm surprised that the discussion about this show petered out so quickly. I thought it got genuinely good by the end of the season. Everyone on it does strong work, especially Jane Adams.

Anyone been watching the second season?

Rebecca Creskoff and Jane Adams play off of each other so brilliantly.

I agree! They're both kinda great but Jane Adams particularly stands out to me. The scene in Sunday night's episode when she takes off takes off her sweater in the parking lot.. Amazing.

This season so far is a big improvement from last season. I like the pace of this season.

I've been a major Jane Adams fan since An Inspector Calls and she really shines in this show.

Wasted a great concept...the show is nothing but a big, long, drawn out tease.
