The Curse (Showtime) TV Show • Page 5

outstanding

 

i think saying nathan is playing himself is more than a bit uncharitable lmaoo

 

i meant lmao not two oo

 

Nathan For You and The Rehearsal were all about how Nathan's pure artifice so I don't know who the real Nathan is just like he wants it

 

I mean of course he's playing a character, he's played a character in everything I've seen him in. What I mean is, he's playing almost the exact same character he was in NFY and The Rehearsal. Not a bad thing, just an observation following the Gatorade scene

 

Fuck this show is so hard to watch

 

Weird episode. Unfortunately I don't think this show is for me. Bummer since Nathan rules

 

i guess somewhat, i feel like we've never seen him as aggro and small as he seemed in the interview scene

 

I don’t get the January comment at the end

 

This show is fucking incredible.

 

What do you find funny about it?

 

I wouldn't say it's always funny but scenes like the Gatorade shower and the art exhibition are so up my alley.. it's every cringe beat of Fielder's previous projects dialed up to the nines with even more stress and straight up black humor (The Safdie DUI scene is supremely dark and made me incredibly anxious).

Nathan for You and The Rehearsal are both shows I deeply admired, so getting more of that in actual dramatic show is really great.

Also, Daniel Lopatin is just killing it with the score per the usual

 

I did think the Gatorade scene was pretty genius

 

Minor, but I just learned the score is actually John Medeski! Produced by Lopatin though

 

Ohhh good to know, I googled after some of the opening notes in the premiere sounded like peak OPN and I guess I misread!

 

I was right there with you!

Also as much as the show makes me laugh, I think it's pretty clearly going for a different tone than straight-up comedy. It's not gonna be for everyone. As a horror guy and a Safdies fan, it feels like it was practically made for me in a lab

 

Great episode. Show is very weird and brilliant.

 

caught up with this today. excited to see where it goes.

 

This has gotta be part of a future rehearsal season lol

 

The whole interview is great

 

Second episode was awesome, the whole scene with Safdie and the girl was so brilliantly uncomfortable and Nathan in the office was amazing, I laughed out loud when he poured the Gatorade on him

 

The Gatorade had me howling.

 

When he pulled it out to drink, you could tell what he was setting up, but the extra pour right onto his head was a great little Nathan extra push
