Have y'all watched the Unicorn yet?

It's why I have a TV. Walton Goggins stars as a widower whose wife died about a year ago and his friends are urging him to get back to living instead of simply existing without his wife. His 2 daughters have mixed opinions on this.

It's Effing hilarious.

I came into it expecting to like it as I pretty much love everything I've ever seen WG do. But I had no idea how much I would love and laugh out loudly all through both episodes so far.

CBS Thursdays at 8:30 eastern

1. Goggins was such an evil character in Justified, I can't see him in this new role. I'll give a try.

but he is a terrific actor and you start rooting for him from the very first minute.

2. I do love Walter Goggins. I'm loathe to start any more sitcoms, as I burned out some time ago,

I understand though - I go through periods where all sit-coms just look stupid to me (and for the most part, I'm right!) but this one is way different.

And this after I told myself I wasn't going to work any new fall shows onto my rotation But, I'm going to make an exception on this one.

And if you're a Ballers fan, then for some reason, there are two cast members from that show prominently featured.
