Title: The best show I never knew about.
Product review: The Amazon review states "Sometimes it's Frasier, sometimes The Sopranos--sometimes American Beauty." Yes and no. There are overarching plot elements from these sources, but Huff is dynamic and original in a way I haven't seen. Huff's life is certainly not as naturalistic as Tony Soprano's or Lester Burnham's. It's more frantic by about a half-turn, and resembles the straight-faced, literary social satire in minitature of Philip Roth or Don DeLillo. Huff is the narcissistic center among a hurrican of impressionistic semi-characatures. There's more going on here than meets the eye. Hands down the smartest, most challenging show on TV.
