In fact, I (and apparently many viewers) find the absurdity of these new Showtime shows somehow more relatable. Certainly, there is a place for “Friends?...
Kidd said she once worked as a waitress, but this was her first time bartending. With an attention to detail, she made sure to deliver quality service. “Is this too much foam?” she asked while pouring a glass of Harpoon beer...
