    Did not expect this, but DTF: St Louis ended up being one of the most moving tv series I’ve watched this year. I earnestly hope some cis straight men watch it as I think it would help.

    Ok having slept on it I think I need to *prescribe* DTF St Louis to middle aged men. The mid-life crisis is as real as a hand grenade & I think it is genuinely possible this show could save lives. And once again, this show is not about what you think it is about.

    Barry White once said disco was "a beautiful art form [because] it made the consumer beautiful." So when Floyd Smernitch and Clark Forrest start listening to Barry together I wanted to leap into the DTF St. Louis finale and say "Listen to him! you're beautiful!" Alas. What a fucking show.

    As a devoted Pluribys and Widows Bay fan, I am thriving in the wake of these Emmy wins. But as a St. Louisian, I am disgusted and outraged by DTF St Louis' win. We hate that show here. It wasn't even filmed in Missouri and it takes place in a fictional subrub in the county!! More like GTFO st louis.

    I tried the new HBO show "DTF St. Louis" tonight - in fairness, I only got about 10 min in but a show that starts with 2 middle aged wht guys complaining about sex w/their wives... I have no interest or empathy for that nonsense these days. But maybe that's just me.

    100% supportable to say that the best drama, comedy, and limited series of the year were The Pitt, Widow's Bay, and DTF St. Louis respectively. I'd agree with you cold on two out of three, even. Good Emmys!

    Normally I feel pretty comfortable reviewing TV shows off of partial seasons. It's the nature of the job. I had a HARD time with HBO's "DTF St. Louis," an odd and evasive show whose true quality will be determined by the three episodes critics HAVEN'T seen. My attempted review:

    1. Stephen Conrad's new tv show "DTF St. Louis" premiered, and it appears to be very good. 2. In "Patriot," John Lakeman sings a folk song he wrote that involves Iran's nuclear capabilities. (John's father thinks writing these songs helps John with his feelings.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZJb...

    DTF St. Louis has no business being as good as it is. A dark comedy murder mystery about sex is actually an incredibly earnest show about loneliness, intimacy, and human connection. It's weird, awkward, but it's the most human show I've seen in a while

    While I was watching the first two eps of DTF St Louis, which to my surprise is not a swingers show, I was trying to think why it is that I inherently find swingers to be hilarious and I think it is largely because they take themselves so seriously.

A vibe like no other show on television ATM, just one storytelling curveball after another and an insane range of performances. Everyone is giving a really distinctive performance while not seeming like they’re all in the same show
