This popped up when I logged in to HBO Max, and I didn't have anything going on so I hit play. I was intrigued when the boyfriend make the crack about Joyce choosing because, no, and the cut to him driving away was funny. I think I'm going to give this a run after the porn guy didn't even take a beat "Do people enjoy your company?" "No." He reminds me of the porn guy on The Deuce. 

I actually remember when the Burt Reynolds centerfold came out. I think he was on Phil Donahue to promote it.

I like this so far. Just love the nostalgia of the 70’s.

I remember that centerfold, too. I was 11 and my mom bought that Cosmo and let me and my older sisters look at it. She thought it was funny and you couldn't see anything objectionable anyway. I'm sure my older sisters, on of whom got hold of and let me read The Happy Hooker a year or so later, would have brought it home if she hadn't. 

I'm loving this show. Watching one a night to make it last. Clever, well-paced, and interesting characters. Plus, I remember that time pretty well. I laughed so hard at the fireman asking what to do with his dick at the actual photoshoot. Putting his penis directly next to an actual thick, hard pole was not the most inspired choice. I hope the end result was better.
