I enjoyed the slow-burn of season 1 of Hung, so I was pleased to see season 2 was pretty much more of the same. It's a relaxed sort of comedy-drama, of the sort you might expect from HBO, by which I mean there's very strong language and far too many shots of naked ladies.
Thomas Jane is deliciously dry as baseball coach - turned male hooker Ray, and his pimp Tanya got ever more ludicrous this season. She made friends with a black male pimp, in order to find out how she should deal with her 'ho and how to make money from clients. She then had a spectacular breakdown and whipped her boss at her publishing company with her belt...
For some reason Ray wanted to get back with his drippy ex-wife (Anne Heche), and his twins celebrated being fat and Damon wrote a creepy poem about sister Darby, before getting stoned. Lenore, Ray's other pimp, wandered around Ray's house completely starkers and generally got a load of great lines. So all in all, a good, easy watch, with some social commentary on the state of American jobs in Detroit thrown in for good measure.
