As much as I love Thomas Jane, he is such a crazy yet amazing actor. Having met him personally I was able to experience his charm first hand, it comes through for this show but it is not enough to draw me in. This was was actually getting better which each passing season, though in December of 2011 HBO officially canceled this series after this season. They seemed much have be cleaning house at HBO since they also canceled “Bored to Death” and “How to Make it in America”. Nonetheless if you enjoyed this show it is at least available with an impressive Blu-ray release.

The third season continued to follow Thomas Jane as his continued his path as the perfect guy and continued making a living being an escort. Things get crazy when Lenore seeks revenge against Ray and his pimp for stealing her idea of turning the local 25-year-old busboy named Jason(Stephen Amell, “The Vampire Diaries”) into a new male hooker.

On television the show might be presented in HD but only 1080i, so the show does look a lot better it is full HD 1080p presentation. It also sounds fantastic with its DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track, though since its a comedy it doesn’t push the barrier. There are a slew of bonuses on this two-disc set including deleted scenes, the featurette “Hung: Inside the Series”, “Pimpin’ Ain’t Easy”, the Wellness centre Walk-through, Damon and Darby’s music video, “Where Is Henry Ford?”, an Alternate Ending and 4 audio commentaries.
