man this show is great. i can't think of a show in recent memory that's kept me on my toes as much - it keeps surprising me in that it goes in directions that i don't expect, but it does so without feeling cheap. it does a good job of keeping the characters grounded while maintaining a vague air of kinda playful surrealism without it being either pretentious or precious about it.
i wish Showtime didn't have such a spotty record cuz getting people to watch this is like pulling teeth. i keep telling them 'it's good, not like Homeland, 'kinda bad but good for showtime'-good, it's good like 'actually for real good' good. i'll give it another persistent round of recommendation before resort to strapping them into the Clockwork Orange chair with the eyeclamps

it was the (now former) news reporter, which hilariously is what finally makes her realize she's at rock bottom and ask for helpGreat episode this week. I think I missed whose place they were breaking into. Seems that Garbo's guy has a totally different motive that he's hiding from Chump.
