Easy 1.05

Art and Life

- Jacob (Marc Maron) is a comic book artist in the mold of Maron even though Maron isn't a comic book artist; Jacob writes semi-autobiographical books, the latest of which (Obscurity) angers one of his ex-wives because he mined their relationship for material when it came to creating the book
- at a book signing he meets Allison (Emily Ratajkowski), a young grad student who then takes pictures of herself and him in his apartment while he is sleeping; after she displays the pictures in a gallery he feels violated
- this is a story of an older man feeling taken advantage of by a younger woman only to realize that what she has done to him is what he does to other people in his life; it felt a little too neat and compact or maybe that's just the way that I've summed it up
- I'm not interested in watching any more of this series; I can't find enough here to keep my interest
