Review: Hung – ‘Even Steven’
Television By Robert Fure on September 13, 2010 | Be the First To CommentEpisode: “Even Steven or Luckiest Kid in Detroit” (Season 2, Episode 10) Synopsis: The second season comes to a close as Ray gets ready to bet (almost literally) the house on reuniting with Jessica and makes a decision on who’ll be his pimp in the future- if he sticks with the business. Review: The season finale of Hung went out firm in the knowledge that they’d be returning for a third season. Rather than wrap anything up or make an explosive exit, the show set up a lot of endings, but really didn’t bring forth any closure. If you’re looking for that, settle in for the long wait ’til season three.
Episode: “Fat Off My Love or I’m The Allergen” (Season 2, Episode 9) Synopsis: Ray is suddenly stuck between two angry lady pimps as Lenore accuses him of betraying her while Tanya, her actual betrayal widely known, snaps. Jessica probably still has feelings for Ray and Ronnie isn’t too happy to hear it. Review: I’ve got to admit, even though I’ve long asked for Tanya to get kicked off the show so Ray could get his screw on full time, I was a bit nervous as their relationship shattered. I guess I’m just used to her effeminate pimp style, though I still stand by the idea that her whiny, flower child personality is annoying and we (and Ray) could do much better.
Episode: “Third Base or The Rash” (Season 2, Episode 8) Synopsis: Ray considers playing in the Alumni game while Tanya’s double-dealing with “The White Whale” teeters on the edge of discovery. Ronnie and Jessica’s marriage develops a crack via a rash. Review: Hung is very lucky to have an actor as magnetic as Tom Jane in the lead role. By now you know we Rejects get at least half-hard-ons for Jane, but it is his presence alone that keeps me interested in this series when the show begins to falter. When he’s off-screen, I find myself likely to stare out the window. Or, at least, much of the time, though in the last few episodes Mike’s subplot about his quest for true love while Tanya play-pimps him out unbeknownst has been great.
Review: Hung – The Middle East is Complicated
Television By Robert Fure on August 16, 2010 | Comments (3)Episode: “The Middle East is Complicated” (Season 2, Episode 7) Synopsis: Tanya gets more advice, and some compassion, from a real pimp while Ray searches for the secret to retaining clients without being attacked over his neutral view on Middle Eastern politics. Review: This episode started off on a most excellent note: a fully nude Lenore (Rebecca Creskoff). She was looking fantastic and not ashamed to strut around Ray’s burned out husk of a home showing it all. If they worked this into every episode, I’d be a happy man. The only thing that could improve upon that would be a nude neighbor Yael scene. She shows up, but fully clothed. You win some, you lose some.
Episode: “A Man, a Plan or Thank You, Jimmy Carter” (Season 2, Episode 5) Synopsis: Damon moves forward with his poetry slamming while Ray prepares for a date with the White Whale Tanya has finally convinced to partake in the service. Review: Could Damon and Darby be any creepier? I mean, jeepers creepers those two give me the willies. Damon’s poem about twins was the height of grossness. Now, I’m no twin and I get that there may be some sort of special relationship between them, but the stuff he was saying sounded more like he wanted to bone her than just hang out more often. Grossness.
Review: Hung – Sing it Again, Ray
Television By Robert Fure on July 26, 2010 | Be the First To CommentEpisode: “Sing it Again, Ray or Home Plate” (Season 2, Episode 4) Synopsis: Ray is increasingly weary of Lenore, who is holding court with Jessica trying to save her marriage – or so she says. Also completing Ray’s life is an increasing number of people become alerted to his strange schedules and trouble relating to his son, Damon. Review: Back a touch towards the depressing side after last week’s relatively uplifting episode, we still get some good stuff and even a sex scene. After all, Ray is a pimp, but a pimp that has less sex than most movie critics. Okay, that’s not true, we’re all virgins.
Episode: “Mind Bullets or Bang Bang Bang Bang Mother Fucker” (Season 2, Episode 2) Synopsis: The battle for pimp supremacy heats up as Tanya and Lenore battle it out for dominance in selling Ray’s privates to ladies. Complicating matters are Ray’s children, who are facing low self-esteem issues, and a co-worker of Tanya’s who demands free sex.
