I love this show. I was anxiously awaiting a new season and was not disappointed. You probably know Brian Cox was a notable King Lear in the UK theater and even wrote a book about playing King Lear. So Shakespeare is part of the DNA of this show. The biggest success for me is the dialog, witty and profane, even the least intelligent of the family, Greg, gets pretty eloquent when he needs to. And the actors are uniformly great.
