    • Trivia

    • Goofs
      Blood doesn't spurt unless the heart is still beating. If somebody was stabbed through the heart and then frozen in space firstly the blood would lose all the pressure keeping it moving and stop moving through the arteries and veins, and secondly it would expand and burst some of those veins. So when the blood thawed it would just leak internally, especially if the wound is facing upwards.

    Not good

    I found everything about this show very derivative and unfunny, particularly Josh Gad's character. The writing is terrible and I expect more from Hugh Laurie. The divorcing couple's dialogue was extremely hackneyed. I'll give it one more try, but I don't really see much potential here. HBO can and needs to do better than this.
