Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I had rented this the other night, highly anticipating the conversations shared among the diners. It would be nice to see some of these people "dressing down" and talking among their peers in a non-celebrity angle, just being themselves. As opposed to being on a talk-show or something of that nature where they are "on."
Boy was I wrong. The more I heard John Favreau talk the more I disliked him. I couldn't finish watching all the episodes. Some of these people are pretty lame. Vince Vaughn is just a plain A-hole. I've always liked Gary Shandling though. The one actress(Tripplehorn?) "broke down in tears" when she landed on the big island to see all the lava are "non-beauty" of Hawaii. Please. Give me a break. What a waste of money to rent that. 'Hey, let's get together and talk about work all the time.' 'And listen to John Favreau talk about himself.'
The night wasn't a total waste. I countered that rental with solid comedy, in 'Curb Your Enthusiasm - Second Season.'
