Both Hank Azaria and Amanda Peet are going all out this season, pushing their respective skill sets to deliver performances that are as amusing as they are uncomfortable. Azaria, delivering his lines with rapid-fire, angry spin and spittle, may be TV’s most caustic character since Dabney Coleman’s Buffalo Bill – and as aggressively unlikable as John Cleese’s Basil Fawlty. In other words, this is a character, and a performance, not to miss, and not likely to be forgotten. And Peet, in this set-in-the-future season, seems determined to keep pace.
