It was okay. Scorsese's involved so everyone is going to be chain smoking and doing enough coke to kill an average person. I found a lot of the fake music acts to be a pointless distraction and ended up skipping through it. Also, Jagger's kid can't act.
Does the script improve after the first 2 eps?

Me. He stars in one of my top 5.
If you haven't seen it... Sucking My Dick.... Tracey, Ohhhhh!
He's great in Woody Allen's
Blue Jasmine as well.
Enjoy!

I downloaded the first episode but haven't watched it. Been watching other shows, but after this thread i'll give it a go.

I don't like it. It's not that it sucks. Besides being a little too "artistic" and draw out by unnecessary musical interludes, it is absolutely quality.
Most great acting, acceptable script.
It fails because it is impossible to like any of the characters.
The main character is a rich fuck-up who manage to blow his success wasting money and generally just being a dick.
The young, chipper female lead ruins the show by showing up an all male talent search team. Just another female character who is better and smarter than every male character on the show, without putting in any hard work to get there.
The wife of the main lead character is just unlikable, despite being beautiful.
The rock acts are composed of dickhead types.
There's no one on this show to like. The most compelling character is a gay man with very few scenes.
I hate it, but I can't stop watching.

I watched all of them.
The only good thing about the show was the protege girls tits.
That Raymond guy has just always made me sick. He sucks.
Aloha!

I watched the first 3 episodes then lost interest. The shows missing something and I'm not exactly sure what. The lead actor was amazing in Boardwalk Empire, a show I'd love to see HBO do a spin off of at some point.
Something horrible is going on behind the scenes at HBO and its effecting all of their content.
