Loved it. Weakest part was the antagonist ex-band member, that character was, err, like written for another show. Just didn’t fit for me.

The whole point of it was that there'd be a real life supervillain.

And I've met creepy dudes that look like that in their 40s, still clinging on to that alt rock fame many years after it passed.

Eh, Party Down's always had some sillier, unrealistic characters like Uda Bengt. And "bitter ex-hipster uses social media to rail against personal enemies" isn't that outside of the box in the first place.

Miles was definitely unexpected, but I felt like he fit the general vibe of the show just fine.
