I've been watching this series wondering if it will improve, poor acting & rotten plots leaving me open mouthed. Finally comes Episode S01E15 Scorched Earth. A world beater.
It revolves around the #metoo trope. Now I sympathise with women who have to fight each day against prejudice and misogynists and I believe that tv can educate. But,but but but...
This episode shows the effects of trying to paint a miniature portrait with a broom. After each slap in the face of a scene showing 'women empowered, men bad' I was left stunned with the inanity of it all. This episode embodied everything that's bad about a tv script. Awful. How dense do you think the audience is? It was the equivalent of spelling out a message to someone IN CAPITAL LETTERS while banging their head against the wall as each letter is spelled. OTT or what?
It was, of course, written by four men. (IMDB credits). Do you think a female scriptwriter might have helped guys?
This is another series that hits the dump pile.
