A funny video of Hung decided me to watch its pilot. In fact even if its main subject is serious, male prostitution, it reminded me of the film Deuce Bigalow : Male Gigolo, a quite good comedy. Moreover it's produced by HBO so as a fan of Six Feet Under I thought it could only be good. I was right because this first episode really delivered. First I think many men should relate to Don's middle life crisis. Something terrible happened but it opened his eyes. A wake up call he needed to realize who he's and to find solutions to his problems : Work, family… But even if some scenes were quite dramatic they were balanced with funny ones. The actor is really good and his performance made the protagonist even more believable. However I'm not really convinced by the other cast members and the scene with his wife was over the top as the context wasn't explained. So I really hope his past will be covered in the upcoming episodes to help better understand who Don was. Last but not least the production quality was great so it really felt like a refreshing ice tea.
