Big Little Lies Trailer - Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman & Shailene Woodley (HBO)

[Czerka]

Not a fan of this season so far. Just dooesnt seem to be a compelling unifier to everyone’s storyline. I hope there’s a good payoff at the end

I think the show is still good

Meryl Streep’s character is a little too over the top but not enough to hate it.

Wow, came to post this. This character is way too much in general, especially to not get checked by now, but then it’s like the producers went even harder with shoe horning her in because it’s meryl Streep. This legitimately feels like the Meryl Streep hour, and not in a good way.

What made the standout performances great last time is they stood out naturally. It’s like they created this character and booked Meryl with the agreement of “we will make this an undeniable Emmy role”.


I personally am disliking the character both in the story (which is seems most people should dislike her) but also in the sense that it’s making the show, and meryl’s inclusion in the ensemble, hard to enjoy.

Hit the nail on the head.

Was Bonnie's mom foreshadowing at the end? Because I feel she's either going to commit that, or Meryl is going to take her out.

 

[Ribbs]

This season isn't v good. It feels like the show is just spinning it's wheels.

This guy that was working in a theater, and she was working on a play with him.

For all the mofos complaining about this season, you don't have to watch it if you don't like it.

Interesting how the lone full black character is "magical". :mjdrinking:

Yeah this season ain't it. Every Sunday I'm feeling myself more and more watching an episode just because Euphoria comes on right after.

Which is a shame because I dig Jean-Marc's work.

I mean, the teacher was black

 

[daemonova]

The dude patting them pockets was black, he shouldn't have given that ring back though

 

[Lootpack]

Why did they remix the opening theme song

They should've left that shyt alone. Doesn't have the same magic that S1's opening did.

stop with this, it's a 7 episode miniseries, it takes a few episodes to feel things out - especially since this aint have the immediate ep 1 hook/undeniability the first season did. if you watch 3 episodes, you might as well finish the season. this season isn't as good, and the mary louise character is heavy handed
