I was skeptical going into this one - big fan of Kirsten Dunst's performances in general, but holy hell does setting TV shows thirty years in the past feel played out by now. That said? This was pretty good. Definitely started stronger than it ended, which gives me all kinds of pause for future seasons, but for about half of a season this was really churning along as a unique, weird show about pyramid schemes and the blissful naivete of the 1990s. The last thing I want to do at this point in my life is get caught up in another five-season Showtime drama that runs out of compelling reasons to stick around by like, Season 3 - looking at you, The Affair - but this one was strong enough to merit a second season.
