Way late to the party, finally got to stream it over the last week or so. Loved it. Really enjoyed all the performances. The interplay between Luke Wilson and Carla Gugino was great. Ron White was totally over the top and totally hilarious. I don't think I'd seen Keisha Castle-Hughes since Whale Rider, she's all grown up now. Some of the actors/actresses I wasn't familiar w/ before but thought they did well. All the musical guests/cameos were fun. All that would've been enough, but what really made it work for me is Imogen Poots. I adore her. I've seen her in a handful of movies, I'd watch her in almost anything.
Bummer it was cancelled. I knew before I watched it that it was considered a flop, but I don't understand why. Not enough dragons/zombies/vampires/gangsters/meth dealers/murders etc. apparently to grab a big audience for a premium cable series. I laughed frequently while watching it and it had a number of very poignant moments. While different in tone, like "Almost Famous" it was a huge love letter to the music industry from Crowe.
