The Idol | Official Teaser | HBO

Im just giving context to how it was presented in the show.
You probably right tho, especially with how nonchalant she reacted to the news.

Even in the show her handlers were debating whether it was a selfie, her best friend/manager was talking about the angle it was taken.

Did you beat off to any of the scenes??

no

 

[Instant Classic]

Nah man they run those kpop groups like the military and a cult . I think people were saying she has an extremely minor bit part so it doesn't really matter


But they don't let these people move like human beings let alone adults

True, I can easily see this getting negative reception there. Also, I wonder if there's a season 2 if they expand her role since she's kinda going viral on twitter.

Just started watching it. Didn't even take 10 minutes to get really awkward and creepy

tell this nutj0b Sam Levinson to take his talents to p0rnhub .....be the son of the guy who directed rain man and the natural and not understand how to tell a story brehs.

Just realized Sam Levinson has a writing credit on Deep Water, and did some work on Euphoria. I'll probably watch the first episode for the fukkery, and decide if it's the appropriate level of fukkery for me, as I've already decided that the odds are low that this is actually good.

The song Jocelyn’s practicing too has the Weekend’s writing all over it.

That's his show.

Is this art imitating art imitating life where The Weeknd plays an exaggerated version of himself? Only, instead of it being coked out white bytches on the covers of his early mixtapes, it's him and the vapid, white bytch.

You're right. For some reason, in my head, whenever I think of that show, it's a different person.

 

[Primetime]

I dunno if i'd call it good, but I was entertained

The extended opening act with the photo-shoot / scandal drama, and how the different stakeholders interacted.. i found it insightful and plausible. I guess i could see how certain ppl in Hollywood wouldn't like it. I'm long past my clubbing days but act 2 felt on the money with how hectic, chaotic and a blur it can be.

The acting was ok,it didn't take me out of the story and as for the nudity and sexuality... i felt it wasn't anything i wouldn't have seen in a random ep of og Game of Thrones or Spartacus. I'll give the 2nd ep a chance.

 

[Th3G3ntleman]

Is this as vapid and shallow as Euphoria?

She gave top to some random nikka. He took the pic and somehow the photo got leaked.
