Mickey represent!!
PS - post DMC [and you know they were exiled pretty damned quick in the mid-late 80s], Heavy D and Kool Moe Dee were MY jams.
I go to work
like a doctor
when I rock the mic, you got to like
the way I operate
I make miracles happen, just from rappin'
The first rap I memorized and got the cadences down, ever. It wasn't that I couldn't memorize other cadences, but this was the first that really felt was worth the effort. [Reply]
Thanks for the heads up. Watched the first episode and quite enjoyed it. Very random casting, but not in a negative way. Man, Liev has aged quite a bit over the last few years. He's really starting to look like a rodent, but I've become more of a fan of his as an actor the more stuff I've seen of his over the years. [Reply]

Awesome.
The creator and screenwriter also created Southland and wrote for NYPD Blue in its best season (1993). She also must have an issue with the Catholic Church and priests in particular because she also wrote Primal Fear.
Season Two has already been greenlit.
Primal Fear was written by a guy- unless you're talking about who adapted the book for film... ??? [Reply]

Got ya, I loved the book and the movie. Ed Norton was amazing in it, especially since I believe this was his first real role in a major motion picture. [Reply]

Really? This show has drawn me in big time. Fascinated by the entire storyline and how that fucked up family is strung together.
Shit yeah, most compelling show of the year. The last show was a WTF episode. Thinking Mickey got the right guy in Boston, but Bunchy was the one who really spotted the priest in LA [Reply]

There have been a few "slow" episodes in the past month but last week's was stellar. Ray finally admitted what the audience knew but no one else did and he exercised that demon.
After that, I thought to myself "Now, where do they go next season?" when BOOM! Of course.

Can you download them On Demand free of charge since you're a Showtime subscriber?
I can do whole seasons with Direct TV or stream in real time. [Reply]
