FemmyV January 29, 2020 Share January 29, 2020 This season seems to be far more abstract, by comparison. I hope it doesn't put too many people off. Link to comment
Athena5217 February 5, 2020 Share February 5, 2020 I loved The Young Pope, but I have been disappointed by The New Pope. I feel that character development has been sacrificed for plot lines intended to shock us. John Malkovich is a great actor, but it doesn’t seem like he has been given much to work with besides, “Generally act weird, and you resent your parents for obsessing over your dead brother.” 3 Link to comment
Starchild February 5, 2020 Share February 5, 2020 (edited) The Young Pope was MUCH more interesting. Agree this season is far too surrealistic. Maybe that would go down better if the rest of the show were more interesting, or even if Law were back in the lead. And too much emphasis on the sexy PR lady and her businessman husband's machinations. I liked the show better when the focus was on the pope shaking up Catholicism. I don't find Voiello's machiavellianism compelling at all. Edited February 5, 2020 by Starchild 1 Link to comment
