Was anyone else caught offguard by how much of a shithead Flip Vicker turned out to be? For some reason his brief scenes at the end of last season gave me the vibe that he was going to be a naive, overly sincere auteur who didn't know how to play the Hollywoo game. I guess he was still an auteur jealously guarding his vision, but I expected him to have more of a vision and less unfocused bullshit.
