It's a 2 hour complete shite show. The only interesting part is the last 10 minutes or so. It's one of the worst things HBO has ever aired.

I think it's largely an argument that Dawkins didn't do anything wrong.

That's what the whole show was about. The only thing that was even relevant to anything was the last 10 minutes when they played the Wade and Miller stuff. The rest of the show was trying to make Dawkins look like a victim and they only told one side of the story. There were only interviews done on his side too. It was terrible.

Yeah I started it the other day and it seemed slow. That's why I asked. Anything else worth watching.

Two thumbs up. You will laugh, you will cry. It's very avant-garde. A meditation on the nature of man as he deals with State-oppression of the common man as embodied by the sports world where everybody gets paid except the athlete himself. Somewhere around the 1:30 mark they pay tribute to El Generalissimo William fricking Wade and then cut to a short melt of screaming SEC fans. I'd recommend watching twice with the volume up so you can hear the distant screams of Dick Vitale, Pat Forde and assorted Nancys and Margarets of the SEC Rant.

I hope that helps.

Very poorly done, shockingly so for an HBO branded project.

Meanders for an hour and a half then the big reveal generates a shrug.
