Well the premiere was tonight. They showed the first hour (Superbowl/Housing) and the last hour (BP Oil Spill).
Superbowl stuff was fun to watch since some of the game play I still hadn't actually seen (at some point I need to sit down and watch the game), and a lot of the reaction in the Quarter I was there helping with. We were on a balcony most of the night and watched the game through the window of the bar across the street.
They showed an incident with the police during a housing vote I had forgotten about. Made me mad all over again. Treme fans will appreciate some of the things being talked about in the first hour because it ties into a lot of the first season and the Big Chief's storyline.
The BP stuff is pretty much taking the company and the government response to task the whole time and nobody gets away unscathed.
Nagin also gets pretty much taken down. Much different reaction to him this time from When the Levees Broke premiere.
Still hard to watch the Katrina images.
Link to the other thread I had started which has some other info.
The show premieres August 23rd & 24th on HBO.
