I think a lot of mainstream reviewers are quick to throw this show in the garbage because it flies in the face of the things they believe about life and women. I think a lot of you guys are quick to throw this show in the garbage because… it flies in the face of the things they believe about life and women.
As there is in life. This (seems to be) a pretty realistic depiction of modern day hedonism, and to ignore that seems very stubborn.
But would you say these characterizations of people are without basis? That these characters or situations are “unbelievable”? For the fem-centric society we currently exist in, to see this show and say it’s not “red pill” enough is simply asking too much. If you truly believe that, I don’t see how you could consume ANY content that lies outside of the realm of the manosphere. I don’t have a problem with Charles storyline because I’ve known Charles. I don’t have a problem the Spencer’s storyline because I can easily imagine he exists.
Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t feel like everything I consume has to align with my values 100%. Unfortunately, it seems that’s the way the mainstream media (as I expected) takes it, along with guys around here. Somewhat disappointing, but ultimately expected.
Also, two great lines:
“I was lying, you do look like shit, you look terrible, you smell too.”
“And you, LeBron did the right thing by going back to Cleveland.”

“Do we really need another storyline that paints women as gold-digging whores? I don’t think we do.
Within the world of Ballers, just about every woman is an accessory until she’s a problem. They’re flesh and saliva until their money-hungry bitches.”

“1. You see that retired player the first time in his bloody life come to something grand as the FUN HOUSE (great idea by the way, but you need massive passive attraction to pull this off) and all he does is get stoned. Then after his wife comes, he claims that this is not "him" - he just wants her to take care of him. Then she is still pissed and goes off after this display of Omegadom.
2. The Rock displays weakness and "sensitivity" to his all-knowing, smart-assing LTR. It's always fun to see someone like the Rock say that he is fucking scared of an MRI. While it is true that we all have our fears, we all know that sharing those things with a woman is not the way to go. That's what close male friends are for who won't think: "What a Beta! Somehow I feel less of an urge to respect and fuck him now."
3. The successful but sleazy guy at the horse-track confesses that he pursued the hot waitress for an entire year and still cannot fuck her. All the Blue Pill Betas will think: "Gee - you see, even somewhat successful men cannot get laid with hotties if they are sleazy and chauvinistic. I need to be a "good and proper" man.
4. And the fucking worst moment was the conversation at the FUN HOUSE, where they talk about fucking the easy bitches by using your passing high market value (most players won't attract much poon passively after ending their careers). Instead of having fun with it and being a man, he talks about all of this being immature, insecure and selfish!!!!!”
