NYC22
Stark Sands wins all the awards for trolling. ALL THE AWARDS.
(Also, I'm so glad I could post both sides of the DM flailing, because I laughed my ass off at Set's reference to paincakes. Stark Sands would approve, bb. BUT HE WOULDN'T ACTUALLY SAY IT OUT LOUD.

omphale: #NYC22. RIGHT, CAPSLOCK ON. DM LOCKED AND LOADED. @sansets I APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE, BB.
OH MY GOD HE IS SUCH A TROLL. #nyc22
This show isn't a cop show; it's a meta-level critique of the notion of television and working-class politics. FUCKING YES.
[Insert tragically lost intro DMs here. I don't know where they went, I really don't.]
[No, WAIT. Set found them! &her;]
omphale: "I know you're gonna miss me, baby. Try not to cry." "Those are tears of joy." *with hand gestures* LEELEEEEEE.
AAAAAAHHH. They've shuffled the teams to pair up Leelee and Stark. AND. BUT. STARK IS TRYING COMMUNITY POLICING, BIG GIANT DORK THAT HE IS.
"What are you, the last of the hippies? You're a cop." "Yeah, but I'm a sensible cop." AHAHAHAHAHA. WAIT, WTF JUST HAPPENED.
That was...I swear to FUCK that Stark interviewed it was a few episodes before stuff started happening. WAS HE ON CRACK?
sansets: Wait, did that show just imply that hippies are SENSIBLE? AHAHAHA. Oh SHOW.
It's possible that he WAS on crack, but I bet either he was trolling or the production people did some shuffling.
GUESS WHICH ONE I THINK IS MORE LIKELY? (Stark is my FAVORITE troll.)
omphale: IF HE WAS TROLLING I AM LEGIT GOING TO KICK HIS ASS IF I EVER GO TO LA. (Actually, the show implied that hippies are sensible AND so is AG.)
OH, STARK. I forgive you because you are the MOST RIDICULOUSLY EARNEST BB COP EVER, and LEELEE IS TROLLING YOUR CHARACTER ONSCREEN.
sansets: \TROLLS/
omphale: OH DEAR CHRIST. "Let me ask. Do you see chemistry between us?" "Ray Charles would see chemistry between you." FAAAAAAAVORITES.
sansets: WHY IS IT NOT TOMORROW NIGHT? (Or better question, why don't I have a television that gets whatever channel this is on?)
omphale: WTF. WTF THIS SHOW IS LIKE AN AU OF ITSELF. I HALF EXPECT A CAMEO FROM ONE OF THE BoB GUYS ANY MINUTE NOW.
sansets: AHAHAHA - I love that it sounds like they are doing a game changing episode IN THE SECOND EPISODE. That makes me happy.
omphale: They have no game to change! STARK SANDS HAS NO GAME, WHAT IS HE THINKING?
NO SERIOUSLY. This show is never going to get an audience, because it's actively criticizing everything people love about this genre.
sansets: WELL AT LEAST THEY HAVE ALL 13 EPISODES OF THE FIRST SEASON SHOT. (So basically I'll love it. GOOD TO KNOW.)
omphale: KENNY IS DISMAYED AT HIS LACK OF GOOD CHOICES. HIS LIFE IS SO HARD, YO.
IN OTHER NEWS, JACKPOT AND AHMAD HAVE ACQUIRED AN ENTOURAGE.
sansets: HIS LIFE IS THE HARDEST. (Please tell me they mock him for that. PLEASE.)
omphale: Oh, LeeLee's character is MOCKING THE FUCK out of Kenny. She is smirkingly amused at practically EVERYTHING HE DOES.
sansets: \0/ \0/ \0/ (Is it WRONG that I've decide that all of these characters should sleep with EVERYONE, just because it'd be pretty?)
omphale: (I'm pretty sure these actors have decided everyone should sleep with everyone. So you're in good company?)
sansets: Well EXCELLENT THEN. \0/ (Sorry, that's about all I've got in terms of intelligent discourse atm. BUT I DO APPRECIATE YOUR FLAIL.)
omphale: In conclusion, not enough Adam Goldberg but a whole fuckton of Stark Sands. ALSO, SURPRISE ENDING TWIST IS SURPRISING.
(no worries, I don't have much in the way of intelligent discourse either. But SRSLY, this show is too smart for any audience it might get.)
sansets: WHY do we keep doing this to ourselves? :-(
omphale: AND I'LL LEAVE YOU WITH THIS: KENNY IS SELFLESS AND JENNIFER FINDS IT HILARIOUS. HI-LAR-I-OUS.
omphale: "I really dig her" ... "And who tweets his fans to come find him at a crime scene?" "Actually, that was me."
sansets: *IS DYING* YESSSSSSSSS. Man, I CAN NOT WAIT to see this tomorrow night. \0/
omphale: "You'll get her next time." "Think there'll be a next time?" "Nope." AND THEN HE GOES FOR PANCAKES TO EASE HIS PAIN.
*flails incoherently* JESUS FUCKING HELL HE IS THE HOTTEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN.
No, REALLY. HE ACTUALLY SAYS HE'S EATING THEM TO EASE HIS PAIN. BOOOOOOOOYS. STAAAAAAAAARK.
sansets: HE IS EATING PANCAKES OF PAIN. PAINCAKES. *_____*
omphale: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
sansets: GOD DAMN IT. NOW I WANT PANCAKES. MY LIFE IS ALMOST AS HARD AS KENNY'S. ;____________;
omphale: NEVER. NO ONE'S LIFE IS AS HARD AS KENNY'S. YOU'LL SEE. ON THE INSIDE, HE'S CRYING INTO HIS SYRUP DISPENSER.

If you're looking for more nuanced discussion, you'll want to keep scrolling. This is the place for the flailing. I have better thoughts (mostly about the decision to critique the genre from within, which I love but which practically guarantees that this show is never going to find its audience) but I'm saving those for the soon-to-come day when I can consistently remember the names of all the characters. Maybe the third episode? IDK.
In conclusion, Ahmad is my favorite but I can only flail about him when he ACTUALLY HAS SCREEN TIME. Instead, I'm left mocking Kenny for all I'm worth. BUT I MOCK WITH LOVE?
