Luck (HBO)

Postby norm » Thu Jan 26, 2012 11:58 am

looking forward to this!

From acclaimed director Michael Mann and 'Deadwood' creator David Milch, 'Luck' takes a provocative look at the world of horse racing - the owners, gamblers, jockeys and diverse gaming industry players.  The cast stars Dustin Hoffman, Dennis Farina, John Ortiz, Richard Kind, Ian Hart, Kevin Dunn, Ritchie Coster, Jason Gedrick, Jill Hennessy, Tom Payne, Kerry Condon, Gary Stevens and Nick Nolte. The pilot is directed by Michael Mann and written by David Milch.

All set on my DVR for Sunday. And it will end right when Game of Thrones season 2 starts.

Yeah the preview (pilot episode) was pretty sweet. I am a huge Milch fan, Deadwood was one of my all time favorites. Only hoping and praying (to Tim Tebow and the Flying Spaghetti Monster both) that the characters are as fucked up as on Deadwood.

So depressing that theres only 1 more football game left this season. What the hell am I going to do w/ my Sundays now???

Didn't watch Game of Thrones.....I hear lots of good things about it. I think it is on demand right now. May have to check out the 1st season before the new one starts.

I'm always derailing threads around here. Will definitely check out game of thrones.

But anyways....Luck looks great! Horse racing, gambling, and Dennis Farina?? Can't go wrong with those 3 things.

What did everybody think? I thought it was pretty good although I was pretty confused for most of the episode. And I could barely understand a word that that trainer Escalante I think his name is was saying. Looking forward to the rest of the season.

That racetrack is beautiful...that is Santa Anita, right?

A bunch of Long Legged Rats....Running as fast as they can.....
With midgets in goggles on top of them.....Whipping the long legged rats.....
