Party Down: Season 2


Party Down: Season 2
The main message for this show is “failure” and “giving up on your dreams”. You will spend the rest of your life regretting the dead-end job you took instead. Hmm, I wonder why this show really speaks to me?
I've been watching the second season of this canceled comedy show from Starz. No one really watched the show mainly because it was on Starz, but don't let that hold you back from watching the two seasons.
The show is comprised of actors and writers that never made it big in Hollywood, so they work at a shitty catering service. They're all bitter about their position in life. Plus, they have to serve people at parties that are rich and famous in Hollywood. The show is the flip-side of the Entourage. It is made up of losers instead of cool people. These are the people serving drinks at the parties that Vince Chase goes to.
Every chance they have to achieve greatness, they fall back to loser-ville.
~The Character of Lydia Dunfree is very much modeled after Sarah Palin it seems. Megan Mullally has this Palin-like character down pat.
~Kristen Bell does a great job as the bitchy manager of a rival catering service.
~The show ends on a hopeful note...sort of.
