Joe is a prick. There’s no way around it.

He schmoozes, boozes, and dances to the beat of his own drum, which is failing because of how he abuses it (and everyone around him). The music is great and it’s hard to completely hate Roy Scheider and maybe they were hoping that would be enough to sustain some love for the main man.

What’s really annoying is that I really want to care about this guy, but then it takes him forever to die and I’m just like, “Okay dude, die already. Let’s get this show on the road already.”
