aghst February 15, 2023 Share February 15, 2023 Getting panned in early reviews. Does it have more than interesting production design? Link to comment
PWHCHCH February 17, 2023 Share February 17, 2023 The production is gorgeous but after watching the first episode can’t say it really grabbed me. Link to comment

chocolatine February 20, 2023 Share February 20, 2023 (edited) I didn't hate it, but it does have some major flaws. It was pretty obvious from the get-go that the lunar real estate is a scam, but not even Shirley, who seems to be otherwise very smart, has caught on to it. The "retro-futuristic world" is interesting, but it's weird how some technologies are super advanced (levitating and self-driving vehicles, robots) and others not at all (no cell phones or LCD screens). I also don't buy that Joey is completely oblivious that Jack is his father. He must have come across an old picture of Jack at some point, and also some kind of paperwork - his own birth certificate, parents' marriage license, title of the house - so he would have at least known what his father's name is (unless Jack changed it after he left). Plus, Jack's mother seems to have lived in the same town the entire time, and seemed eager to have a relationship with her grandson, so she would have been in Joey's life in some capacity.

aghst March 3, 2023 Share March 3, 2023 Not much discussion of this one. Seems to be overshadowed by Shrinking and soon Ted Lasso, not to mention shows on other streamers. Link to comment

bilgistic March 13, 2023 Share March 13, 2023 Alison Pill is doing absolutely nothing for me in this. I'm losing interest overall because most of the characters are too stupid to live. I swear Billy Crudup is playing the same character that he does on "The Morning Show". I love Shirley, but the fact that she's not connecting the dots is painful. Link to comment

Ottis April 8, 2023 Share April 8, 2023 (edited) I’ve watched 2 eps. It’s bizarre that the one woman was crushed by the delivery truck and it doesn’t amount to anything beyond having to fix the garage door. I never watched Mad Men, which this kind of reminds of in overall theme, so I don’t know how much Mad Men focused on charlatans. That’s not a winning hook for me. Aside from the look and feel and set design, nothing really is appealing so far. Edited April 8, 2023 by Ottis Link to comment
