Can't believe I never made a thread about this one!
Did anybody else watch? Based on a Grant Morrison comic, came on SyFy. It just wrapped up yesterday.
I really enjoyed it ... Stars Christopher Meloni and Patton Oswalt as the voice of imaginary friend Happy.
You might not expect much from a SyFy original show but it was just awesome comic book stylized over the top goodness. Violence and swearing seem to be perfectly acceptable for 10pm basic cable nowadays which I think is fantastic.
Anyways, 8 episode season, definitely worth a binge if you haven't seen it.

Definitely on my watch list (after reading the reviews on IMDB). In fact, I might watch this next (after MiiHC S2).

Totally forgot about this show.
Gotta check whether it's available on-demand. Or I might have to suck it up and get a hulu subscription.

Woah I never knew this was based on Grant Morrison's work. Definitely watching immediately. My name is from one of the main characters in Grant Morrison's comic series The Invisibles if you didnt know

Some of us knew This show is actually pretty nuts from what you'd expect to see on SyFy ... it is surprisingly violent for basic cable. I've been wondering if you can watch an uncensored version 'cuz I hate that blood can fly all over the place but language has to be blanked out. I think season 2 started on Wednesday maybe? It's Easter themed this time around, I've read it's a little slow to start but picks up as the season progresses. If you enjoyed season 1 I'd imagine you'd probably stick around for season 2.

I checked ondemand on FioS and season 1 is $20. Wondering whether it is worth buying the entire season.

Dang you'd probably be better off buying a subscription to some streaming thing if its on there at that price point, at least you could watch some other stuff too :-O.
So far season 2 has also surprised me at what you can do on basic cable nowadays. Hopefully one day things will have even less censorship but at least now you can have some swearing and violence and stuff and act as if the world is full of responsible adults who can control their children and just turn off the channel if they don't like it.

Do you need to watch season 1 in order to watch season 2? Is there a continuation of the plot line?
Season 2 is obviously free.

Season 1 had a christmas theme, and this one has an easter theme, but there is some continuation in terms of recurring characters and stuff that'd probably be helpful. I guess you could just read the recaps of season 1 if you didn't want to order it and wanted to start watching from season 2 hehe.

Looking as though Netflix may pick it up, it's currently one of their top rated shows

Started getting into season 2. You can tell they are past source material. Or maybe you cant. I never read the source material so i have no flippin idea. Anyway it's still cool. The first episode starts off pretty heavy!
