True Detective (2014)
Second season
I was a huge fan of True Detective last season and I was really looking forward to the next year with new characters. Being a huge fan of Colin, Rachel and Vince; I thought it would be better this time around; I was wrong. I am not really sure why I am so disappointed with this year's attempt. Part of the reason is the characters are so boring I just no longer care what happens next. It just seems everyone is miscast in roles no one wants to see them in and the stories are so convoluted and spread so thin, one cannot muster any real enthusiasm to follow their journeys. Not to mention all of the threads of each story are so dark, so completely depressing and just flat out mundane, any remaining audience base at this point has absolutely no interest in continuing to even want to try to revive any Type of audience relationship cultivated with any of the characters. Not one of the characters is even likable and I am not sure if it because they are written that way, or because the parts are so miscast the actors playing these parts are too unbelievable to buy into their characters. I love Rachael McAdams, but her playing Ani, just does not compute at all. Last season all the characters were united in tells the h one story in two separate eras. Unfortunately, this season seems to drift all over the place with 2 dimensional characters that No matter how hard I try, I just cannot seem to care about. Very disappointing! Question: did Mathew and Woody have a much better script or was their acting so off the charts that the magic just cannot be repeated?
Queens of Drama (2015)
Well it started off promising....
Although I had high hopes for this show and was excited about it airing; I am now officially over it. First off, Vanessa Marcil quit on the third show and as CW stated, there is no show without her. Although Donna Mills was willing to put her reputation on the line and back it, even after she was told that there would be no show without Vanessa, the other three spoiled little nobodies would not let her work with HER CONTACTS and attempt to make it happen. Every show has to have an Executive Producer to take the lead and pitch the show and present a familiar face, if Vanessa was not going to do it, Donna was the most qualified to move the project forward. No one I know even remembers or even knows for that matter who those three other people are; other than their own best fans. Donna has years of experience in cultivating contacts and building up her fan base. When the other three nobodies showed up at that meeting demanding their due, they got it, Donna left and took the only hope they had of ever acting again. She is complete justified in stating that they were totally ungrateful. The show is about bitching and fighting, constant constant fighting, like a bunch of hormonal teenagers, which is exactly why Vanessa left! With no one in charge, they are simply adding lines when they want, acting like spoiled pampered stars. So, do yourself a favor, go babysit a class of first graders, you will enjoy that more than watching this show... I am so disappointed that pride, and people thinking they were more important then they actually are, ruined this promising show....
