ATL shawty !

 

[Bronx-Man]

Ever since Louie came out on FX, I've wanted to see a show like this. Glad to hear it doesn't disappoint.

 

[TheOddOne]

Reviews rounded up on metacritic.

 

[ZeroX03]

I like that it's on FX too, probably a lock for a second season.

 

[Retsudo]

Wow just reading the reviews has me pretty hyped. And i had no idea this was a thing before entering the thread.

Can't wait for some Glover goodness.

 

[TheOddOne]

Spoiler

See every rapper think he a thug, well you do the crime, you do the time. Don't drop the soap haha. Free my uncle Jay!

- Promo for this week's episodes.

 

[Dereck]

Back-to-back?!?

 

[RatskyWatsky]

I'm usually annoyed when they do back-to-back episodes, but thankfully Tuesdays are light right now so I'm okay with it.

I feel the same way but it's at the same time as Queen Sugar. I'll watch this first though since the second episode of QS is on it's regular night, Wednesday.

- NY Times review

But this is no rocket ride to the top. Dry and offbeat, with an immediate, original voice, this comedy is a back-roads drive through the expansive territory between rags and riches.

 

[Mariolee]

Knowing the character's name, I wish the OT title was "The Importance of Being Earnest".

Are those the actual synopses? That's incredible.

 

[tmdorsey]

It's from the FX press release.

I kid you not.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Literally cannot wait.

tfw when you want the good OT title but you get TheOddOne instead

I was leaning toward Atlanta |OT| In Oakland

It's on brand with the show's Twitter.

 

[ColonialHawk]

Got excited thinking this had premiered, I clicked the wrong Atlanta OT.

I was leaning toward Atlanta |OT| In Oakland

I like this.

 

[smisk]

I rarely watch TV during its broadcast, but I'm definitely gonna make a point to catch this tonight. Hopefully Atlanta and Better Things can fill some of the void left by Louie.

HEY GUYS LETS BE VERY VAGUE ABOUT THIS NEW SHOW, LET'S NOT REEL THEM IN. HURR DURR.

 

[vypek]

The synopses are really awesome. Lol

 

[ZeroX03]

You can add Donald Glover in brackets at the end of a clever title. Your lack of imagination and wit is not excused.

 

[Sketch_Turntable]

Anyone know what time this will be available for streaming from FX?

 

[Mr. X]

Need to know if these will have a stream or something after they air.

 

[ZeroX03]

Not long to go!

 

[Sketch_Turntable]

Need to know if these will have a stream or something after they air.

FX Put "You're The Worst" up (at least on their app), but I can't remember if I watched it later that night or the next day.

EDIT: Oh you can watch FX live in their app if you have a cable log-in? That is fantastic news. Wont' have to wait.

 

[Sou Da]

It's on.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Legoooooo

 

[DrFunk]

Whoooo

 

[Sou Da]

I already like it

 

[Baroquemantic]

Haha, this is great.

 

[Sou Da]

Cracked white iPhone.

 

[Tragicomedy]

World Star before rap, you already know that
So Fresh Prince they about to bring the show back.

 

[Zaheer]

World Star and a cracked iPhone? They know what they're doing.

 

[Slayven]

Who's grandma is that?

Repping Magic City going to get somebody hurt

 

[Sou Da]

Man every shot in this show looks authentic.

 

[Slayven]

Every city got a hood named Glennwood?

 

[Strike]

They drop F-bombs on FX now?

 

[Sou Da]

They drop F-bombs on FX now?

I guess so

"Like Don Lemon"

Lmao

 

[Slayven]

I am loving Darius

 

[ViewtifulJC]

this is good

 

[Sou Da]

So what the fuck is the next AHS?

 

[Baroquemantic]

Yeah, I'm sold already.

 

[Ivan 3414]

I haven't seen a Birth of a Nation or Mafia III ad on TV until I watched this show

They really trying to reach that black audience aren't they

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Man every shot in this show looks authentic.

the sound design is really striking to me. Walking outside feels real...cars playing rap in the distance, cicadas chirping, people yelling at various levels.

 

[ColonialHawk]

They drop F-bombs on FX now?

Good. Take note USA.

 

[Sou Da]

The hand slapping, the gestures. 10/10

 

[DrFunk]

I can't stop naming where every scene was filmed

 

[Baroquemantic]

Lol

 

[Zaheer]

That is amazing.
