I didn’t anticipate liking this show, but I’ve to say that I like it. Just finished episode 4 and it’s getting better for sure. Not at all interested in See, but I do like For All Mankind as well.
Just watched episode 4. The first leading up to the interview was fairly dull and draggy, but I understand that it was setting up the stage for the actual interview itself, which I absolutely loved. Something about the downtrodden finally getting their day in the sun and all.
Also, what's up with Steve Carell? He's billed as one of the stars of the show, yet seems like a glorified guest actor in his own show? Did the director really have to go to the extent of casting him just to play the role of a sexual predator?
Went in with low expectations and I quite like it, although I found Ep4 very weak in comparison to 2&3. The previous 3 felt more industry overview whereas I found 4 predictable, soapy and dare I say cheesy. If it continues this way, I’ll probably still watch it all eventually but it’ll become a backlog show and not a day and date viewing.
SPOLIERI think i's likely that Carell will get more screentime as the show progresses?
I’m in the same boat. I saw Jennifer Anniston as the lead with Steve Carrel and thought it would be a dud. I actually really like it. I also like See, but not nearly as much as I thought I would. For All Mankind is watchable, but only if there is nothing else on.I didn't automatically write it off like some people did. But I did go into it with some skepticism. I'm actually surprised. It's not the best show I've ever seen...but I will continue to watch it.
See and For All Mankind are next on my list. Haven’t checked either one out yet. Haven’t had a lot of free time lately ?I’m in the same boat.

Wasn’t there a report that Apple wouldn’t allow sex scenes or something like that? That’s why you don’t always believe rumors

i suspect a lot of people are watching just because of the big names. I know that’s why people watched Big Little Lies even though the second season was garbage.
I don’t get those ratings at all. The season was what 6-7 episodes. And a lot was filler, like one whole episode about a costume party.Garbage?

I haven't read the whole thread, so sorry if this has been covered, but . . .
Although I'm really enjoying this series — I love the cast and the script and the sets — I'm not really sure I have any idea what's going on.
Admittedly I'm that guy in a movie who's constantly saying "Who's that guy again? Why did he kill that other guy?"
But I'm really not understanding anyone's motivations for anything they do. Is that supposed to be the point?
It wasn’t a bad episode overall. No judgment over the presence of the sex scene in and of itself, but it might just take the prize for the worst sex scene I’ve ever seen. It was comically bad to the extent that the episode probably would have been better off without it.Episode 5 has the lowest rating on IMDb thus far (8.2/10). Must've been the sex scene. People can be so prudish, especially American audiences. It was my favorite episode.
We are liking The Morning Show and Forq All Mankind. Not as keen on the other two shows.I didn’t anticipate liking this show, but I’ve to say that I like it. Just finished episode 4 and it’s getting better for sure. Not at all interested in See, but I do like For All Mankind as well.
