Happy! Season 2

[RPM 26328]

Was hoping for another Christmas release, but it looks like we have to wait until Easter.

[Monster 219]

First one was super fun and dark.  Really looking forward to this.

Season 1 on Netflix.

I need to rewatch that during Christmas. Such greatness.

[The Dude 1246]

Yep. In. 

[RPM 26328]

Just stumbled across this. SyFy is running a Happy marathon (sort of) the next 3 nights at 1am starting NOW. 2 episodes tonight, 4 tomorrow and 2 more the next night. DVR set.

If they’d move this to showtime or Netflix so it could have tits, it’d be the perfect tv show.

So does this mean Ann Margaret is coming?

She is if I have any say in the matter

[Brew 3049]

Posted in the Netflix thread, but this was one strange, entertaining show. Meloni and Oswalt were perfectly cast and it worked well.

[RPM 26328]

Patrick Fischler is gold as Smoothie.

[Brew 3049]

Forgot him, he was also perfectly cast and played it well. The scenes with the cops mom, him with the kids in the school setting, and when he got interrupted with the guy in the shower were creepy good.

[XYZ 2154]

I guess the mafia guy and the creepy children entertainer/trafficker still have to be dealt with.

Tonight's the night!

[RPM 26328]

Episode 1 was paced a little slow, but they had to lay out the backstory. Had a pretty good idea who the bunny was before the reveal. Meloni is excellent.

[MC Fresh Breath 4074]

The prison visit with the old lady and Isabelle (Isabella?) was wild.

The dark humor in the show is so off the charts.  It feels like each little minor act is full of so much that the re-watchablity quotient is very high.

[Duval Street 420]

Hoping we find out what the hell the teletubbies are this season.

[Pato del Muerto 52535]

Why must all the nbc/universal channels have their own streaming app?

now I have to put syfy on the Apple TV, or wait for this season to get to Netflix. 

[RPM 26328]

Take your daughter to work day! The OTB was pretty good, but Smoothie stole the show with the completely skinned guy. Need to keep an eye on him.

[Celery Man 20981]

haven't started the new season yet but bumping because I had forgotten that it existed

[RPM 26328]

Ann-Margaret still got it.

[MillerEP 30492]

Picked right up where it left off.

[bamachine 1231]

Ouch witz

[Jograves 357]

Started watching this because I saw this thread. 

What a weird show. There's nothing else really like it. That Blitzkrieg! episode was nuts. 

[RPM 26328]

Missed last night's episode because of the storm. Gonna try again tonight.

[RPM 26328]

Anyone still following this? Not as good as last season, but still rated "WTF?".

Meloni is fucking awesome. His range is phenomenal. Even though he's smaller than the comix Sax, he IS Nick Sax. Likewise, only Patton Oswald could be Happy!

Season finale next week.

[bamachine 1231]

Yeah, I watch it every week. Just too weird to discuss, most of the time. Cool twist to find out

Happy has some form of lust deity in his DNA, maybe Priapus.

This show is really out there. I had to take a little break from it but I'm only a couple of episodes behind. 

I liked the first season much more. 

[bamachine 1231]

Goldblum finally gets to play a role fitting of his ego. Loved the last scene with Nick and Smoothie.

[RPM 26328]

Pretty good season. Not as good as S1, but that was a high bar. Goldblum was perfect casting. Looks like next season is Halloween. bartscott.gif

[RPM 26328]

Wow, that was quick.

It looks like Happy!'s wild ride has officially come to an end. SYFY has officially cancelled the Christopher Meloni-led drama, just months after its second season debuted. The Hollywood Reporter claims that the cancellation was a "tough decision" that was ultimately made due to lackluster ratings.

The report does outline that Happy! - alongside freshman series Deadly Class - are being shopped around to other possible platforms by their respective studios. Happy! reportedly performs well on Netflix, and is said to be the best second-window drama show in male and teen demos (outside of You, which has now become a Netflix original after being canceled by Lifetime).

[bamachine 1231]

Well, furk, maybe Netflix can pick it up and we get to see Mer's naughty bits. Would not be the first time she has shown some skin. Yes, I looked her up some time during S1, sue me. They are worth a gander, look for some movie or show called Assassin's Tale.

[RPM 26328]

Hopefully somebody picks it up that isn't restricted like SyFy. They pushed the basic cable envelope. Let's see some unrestricted Meloni/Oswald. Crank this shit to 11!

Just read about the cancellation.  I honestly didn't enjoy Season 2 as much either.  Season 1 felt way more fun.

Not that there weren't entertaining moments, it just felt like they were further between then the helter-skelter on the run type thing Season 1 was.
