The Yips

The Louis and Miles banter is still solid and funny, but it is starting to get a bit repetitive 3 episodes in.

The idea of mocking blackface is risky, but this is a show that can handle it as it is going to be an expose on Hollywood for sure.

I'm liking the show so far, but not loving it. We'll see what happens when they start making this movie.

Directed by Adam Arkin, he gives his old man a small role. Oscar winner Alan Arkin. He plays Rick Moreweather's critically lauded filmmaker father. Someone Rick is enticing to work in his movie on a cash only basis.

Rick is hoping to attract old timers to work for cash. However he is shocked to find the lengths Miles would go to get his movie off the ground. Miles puts pressure on April to get a big movie studio on board.

I did like that by the third episode that the movie is becoming reality already. We also learn a bit about the plot of this movie that is being made.

It chimes somewhat with Amara's backstory. How her poor family sold her to an older man for some goats. They got one less because she was ugly. It also leads to how Amara started on her life of crime.

Miles is now a producer, he has impressed his daughter. His wife's new boyfriend ends up with an altercation with Yago and his golf game has gone off. Maybe Mile's life is turning a corner.
