    Again...WHY do they cancel ALL the shows that make you have to pay attention?

    I am in the last 11 minutes of Season 2 Episode 10 and wanted to see when the next season was. I fell across this show on Amazon Prime and was completely engaged as soon as I started watching. LOVE J.K. Simmons, so I knew it would be good, but I had no idea how good. So many other talented actors just made it even more fun to watch.

    VERY sad it is not continuing, and shallow no-brain shows like Survivor, Bachelor and Kardashians are still on. πŸ‘ŽπŸ»
