    ugh - so awful and on the nose writing and fake and terrible and typical Ryan Murphy where he rips off a zillion different other artists and claims it's an homage.

    Wow after all those delicious series, this one is a bomb. After "The Politician" also on Netflix I didn't think Ryan and his posse could helm a second dud, but they did. The acting is terrible, writing is bad and show boring.

    This is about the worst series I have ever watched. It is so bad that it makes me want to write a comment about it. Wow.

    It’s an intentionally delicious and messy show, born to be binged, although a lot of the name-dropping – Tallulah Bankhead, Noel Coward -- may float right by some. No matter, its glittery blend of the tacky, corny and controversial, while lacking real weight, is an escapist balm.

    It’s tin-eared and confident but totally inadequate as a portrait of Hollywood as it was outside of its production design, which is admittedly rich.

    Too bad the vehicle for their improbable success, based on the story of a woman who jumped off the Hollywood sign to her death, looks like a laughable dud. The grown-ups come off better, even when you know they know they're slumming. [11 - 24 May 2020, p.7]
