Season 1 Review:
Although the relentless superficiality of the characters gets tiring, it allows you to keep laughing as they double cross and second guess each other at a turbocharged pace. There’s fun to be had at the expense of the premise of the school as a microcosm of American society.

Season 2 Review:
Midler plays Hadassah Gold, loyal chief of staff to Senator Dede Standish, who is played by Judith Light. The pair don’t so much steal the show as turn it into their own personal heist movie. Unfortunately, they’re not on screen all the time, and we’re stuck with the rest of Murphy’s characters.

Season 1 Review:
It’s so aggressively kitschy and cutesy that, on the rare occasions when it calms down and tries to be earnest and affecting, the sincerity comes across as calculated, like a politician tearing up while delivering the same campaign speech for the fourth time in a week. Considering the show’s many irritating and exhausting qualities, it’s a small miracle that The Politician hangs together, much less that it manages to produce some touching and insightful moments.

This is an awesome show. At first I wasn’t sure if it would deal with suicide tastefully, but in the end I really thought the show dealt with a lot of different issues in a fairly respectful way.

only giving it a green score of 7 because of the nuanced humour and performance by ben platt. the supporting cast is great especially david corenswet as river really a shame he barely had any screentime and when he did he generally had the best line delivery.

Boring.... Sooooooo boring..... Mix of arguments are teenage series that already exist !! .. When Ryan Murphy is running out of ideas, but he has to do something because Netflix has paid him many millions ...
