Anybody watching "Get Shorty" on Epix?

This is a really great show, based loosely on Elmore Leonard's novel, starring Chris O'Dowd (drool) and a magnificent supporting cast, including of all people Ray Romano--even the little kid is wonderful. It's not getting much attention that I can see, and I'm worried that there won't be a season 2. It's really, really worth a look.

It's a dark comedy about horrible criminals who you want to win--sort of like Breaking Bad, but funny as hell. The plot is intriguing, with nice twists, and it's very well-written.

You can watch all 7 episodes (so far) On Demand.

but to watch it since I have Directv I have to sign up online and then watch it on an app on roku, and then I can only do that for 30 days per email sign up as you cant buy this channel, weird

Directv is not carrying it for some reason. Hopefully the popularity of this series will change that.

Amara is scary, so I went out of my way to find sitcoms she is on to watch her and see how good of an actor she is, and she is good.
