Highly recommend The Lowdown. It is on FX (you can also watch on Hulu). Good story, great cast.
Ethan Hawke is great as usual, Kaniehtiio Horn (for all you Letterkenny fans), Scott Shepherd (The Last of Us, True Detective), the always awesome Keith David, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Kyle MacLachlan, Dale Dickey...really a fun watch so far.

Peter Dinklage was in episode 5, and was pretty outstanding. He is such an incredible actor, and just makes me miss Tyrion Lannister even more.

It's great. It's also available on Amazon Prime. I think that Ethan Hawke should be a shoo-in for the best actor Emmy.

Season 1 is done, all 8 episodes are now available. I really like how they wrapped it up, and I hope they get a season 2. I guess it hasn't been announced yet, but I would be surprised considering the cast and the generally positive reviews and support.

I actually thought it was a Canadian level production; it was that bad.

I don't know what you mean by that, and also wonder if we watched the same show. Do you mean it was like the John Candy flick Canadian Bacon, or it reminded you of [shirt]'s Creek? Or Letterkenny? Wait, did it remind you of Trailer Park Boys? Cool!

Tremendous. Going to re-watch again pretty soon. The supporting cast is excellent as is the custom for good shows. Had to love the nicknames Lee was given....first "Pedo...", then "Custer..." :lol:

Hawke was brilliant but my initial thought was this would be a Jeff Bridges role 20 years ago.

He definitely has channeled the Dude for this role.
