Well, 5 episodes in, and I still have no idea whats going on.
On HBO and created by the guy who did Deadwood (a bunch of cast members are also Deadwood alumni), the show seems to revolve around some weird guy who just shows up in the middle of a seriously dysfunctional family of surfing legends in California. I've got him pegged as either the second coming of Jesus, or an alien. Like Deadwood the language is Shakespear crossed with Yoda, plus surfer.
"Whipping skippy" is my new favorite euphemism.
I've also seen the show compared to Twin Peaks. This last episode during a cookout, a zombie is, out of the blue, walked out of a room to sit with everyone, and nobody bats an eye.
So.
Someone watch the show and tell me what the fuck is going on.
