WhosThatGirl June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 I'm not surprised. I was more surprised it got renewed. I never really took to this. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44804-after-renewing-vinyl-hbo-changes-its-mind-and-cancels-it-after-all/#findComment-2348924
Samwil June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 Everything about this show had potential, and then it aired. I didn't make it through the premier. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44804-after-renewing-vinyl-hbo-changes-its-mind-and-cancels-it-after-all/#findComment-2349413
stillshimpy June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 Yeah, I'm sorry for the cast and crew, because the "renewed! Okay, not renewed! Good luck job-seeking!" sucks for them, but the show managed to make sex, drugs and rock-n-roll deeply boring. I didn't make it the credits on the first episode either. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44804-after-renewing-vinyl-hbo-changes-its-mind-and-cancels-it-after-all/#findComment-2349466
WhosThatGirl June 22, 2016 Share June 22, 2016 Oh I feel bad for everyone involved but the show was boring. I was really excited about the idea of this show but the end result didn't match what I hoped for. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44804-after-renewing-vinyl-hbo-changes-its-mind-and-cancels-it-after-all/#findComment-2349595
Muffyn June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 I consider this a mercy killing. They showed us mercy by cancelling it so we won't be compelled to watch it ever again. The Nasty Bits are no more. I don't think anyone in the viewing audience will miss them. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44804-after-renewing-vinyl-hbo-changes-its-mind-and-cancels-it-after-all/#findComment-2349924

WhosThatGirl June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 It really did sound like a cool show and they did have a good cast and I tried to like it. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44804-after-renewing-vinyl-hbo-changes-its-mind-and-cancels-it-after-all/#findComment-2350451
Mr. Sparkle June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 I'm obsessive about completing things, so I did watch the whole season. While it had its moments, like everyone said, it just didn't gel. I liked a few characters (Ray Romano & Juno Temple) but actively disliked many others, including Richie and his wife. I liked the musical performances, but didn't care for a lot of the plot lines, particularly the Sopranos wanna-be gangster arc. I also found the Forrest Gump-like discovery of punk, disco, etc. to ring untrue. While I probably would have watched the second season, I really won't miss it. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44804-after-renewing-vinyl-hbo-changes-its-mind-and-cancels-it-after-all/#findComment-2350724
jtallman June 23, 2016 Share June 23, 2016 I watched the entire season mainly for the music. I found Richie's self-destructive behavior, the gangster financing story lines, and the mean-spirited stuff sprinkled in ("Get to the buffet before Mama Cass") just tiresome. Not surprised or sorry that HBO pulled the plug on it. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44804-after-renewing-vinyl-hbo-changes-its-mind-and-cancels-it-after-all/#findComment-2351529
