The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret

Is anyone watching this? It airs Friday nights on IFC, and stars David Cross as a pathetic American from Portland, OR inadvertantly getting a job in London selling an energy drink. Also has Will Arnett as his boss. It's only a six-episode season, but I've really liked it so far, due to how much I love Cross & Arnett's comedy.

Got mentioned in the Running Wilde thread, I've been keeping up with it. Also his assistant Dave is famous for Inbetweeners, a British comedy.

"can you help me clean up this black pudding?"

I've always loved david cross no matter what it was. It always makes me miss Mr. Show.

**Conrad** · 2010-10-25 12:07

When I first started watching the show I didn't like Dave because he seemed unnecessarily mean to Todd for no real reason, but he wasn't really in the most recent episode save for one scene so I enjoyed it.

Young and Not Legal... There's like 25 million hits for this!

I missed the first episode, but I think my DVR caught a repeat yesterday so I can see how it all started. Loving the show so far.

Really enjoying the series so far. David Cross is an amazing prick.

**Conrad** · 2010-11-01 12:50

This show has easily taken the place of Extras as the single-most cringeworthy series I have ever seen. I literally watched the last episode through my fingers.

**Trichocyst** · 2010-11-06 11:26

That may be the single worst season finale ever. And by worst I mean frustrating. That's a terrible cliff hanger to leave on. There had better be a season 2.

**Conrad** · 2010-11-06 12:02

It's a British comedy, so I think it's destined to have two seasons. And yeah, I totally agree with you.

Actually, according to a Facebook note by David Cross himself, the show has been picked up for 8 more episodes, so we'll get to see everything up to the courtroom scene.

Well, well, well...look what we did! IFC (Hooray IFC!) has picked up the show for (at least) another eight episodes!

That would take us right up to the point with Todd in the dock that starts every episode off.

That's especially good considering how tonights (and the seasons) last episode ends.

Here's what you may want to know about tonight:

The thing that the guy at the fancy place (Parliament) is ordering on his cell phone in the bathroom - all real. That is based on a real guy who really did that.

And the ensuing result really happened.

You'll know when you see it.

That's all I can say without giving anything away.

The last twenty seconds of tonights episode should really get you psyched for next season.

Enjoy!

fuck yes

**ZarakiKujata** · 2010-11-06 22:42

jesus fucking christ, him on the deaf tour of Parliament has to be up there w/ the pink dildo scene of the british office or anything Larry David has come up with... in terms of sheer cringe worthiness.

AHM SOWWY *mime tears*

**grantlogan** · 2010-11-07 02:34

I just watched 1-5 and on ep 6. The situations Todd gets into are just mind blowing. Everything out of Will Arnett's mouth are great.
