How callous can Rick really be?
(Ive never aligned with aSuitscharacter more).
You might be curious to know who he fires or what lesson is learned.
He fires no one.
If you introduce a lazy character test, then at least you might see it through.
Show me this man being interesting or compelling, or stop showing him to me at all.
We keep being told that these people are remarkable and fierce.
We never get to see it.
He turns out to be some B-list comedy actor who has dreams of being a serious, Oscar-level actor.
One of the most irritating things about the show is that it doesnt know what it wants to be.
We learn that Stuart wasnt always a conniving dickhead or a criminal defense lawyer.
Cue the strangestPatton Oswaltcameo known to man.
Its so random, its actually kind of camp.
Why doesnt Ted call Tom Hanks, you ask?
Its probably because hes knee-deep in his own drama with his frenemy, Stuart.
Naturally, if this comes out, Teds career at the justice department is toast.
Stuart, of course.
Even from beyond the grave, that man proves to be incorrigible in his audacity.
Hell is not hot enough.
Stuart wants to renegotiate for better terms, using the picture to squeeze his former client for every cent.
Ted though figures out what the wife really wants: a role.
The show hopes this is poignant, but it plays like a poorly thought-out melodrama.
