Just watched the first two episodes of this new HBO show from Sam Mendez and Armando Iannucci. Not quite sure what to think yet. I think the second episode was better than the first but feels more Avenue 5 than Veep to this point.

Anybody else on this?

sports-related?

Nope. Hollywood satire. "The Franchise" refers to an alt-version of the Marvel or DC franchises.

Each episode has gotten a little better though the comedy seems slightly forced. I do love me some Aya Cash, though. I like the use of Himesh Patel much better than Avenue 5. I'll probably see this one through to the end.

Well, after waiting a few weeks for Episode 9, thanks to a little Googling it appears there is no Episode 9 for Season 1. It's over. Probably for good as I can't imagine they'll bring it back. It was a little uneven but I enjoyed it. Odd way to end it, IMO. Almost like the play clock just ran out and everybody shakes hands at midfield and walks to the locker room.

Yeah, I didn't realize that was the finale until well after the fact either. 

Entertaining enough show, but nothing remarkable or enduring.
