This series continues to suprise me the further I get. First, you can't go wrong with the creator of Ray Donovan at the helm. And second, it is always captivating not one boring moment.
Jon Bethernol usually seems to play the same actor but in this he emulates Richard Gere so well and there's times where he looks just like him.
It's a very layered shows with a lot of things going on (in a good way) to keep the viewer compelled.
This series is absolutely fantastic and insanely bingable. Well done and bravo.
Ignore the negative reviews and watch the first episode and you'll thank me. Great rendering of a remake.

I think 7 is a decent score overall, there are some good episodes and some fine ones, one thing that's consistent in them all is the performance from Jon Bernthal and Rosie O Donnel who were stand outs for me.
The story is of Julian K who gets out of Prison after 15 years of being wrongly convicted, the secrets of his past come back to haunt him as he contemplates how to move on with his life. We get flashes into his past which show us how he has been put on the path of a gigolo.
Decent show, a little dragged here and there. Dropping to 7 episodes probably would have made it better, a weak enough finale which was disappointing but the whole premise of the show is good and Bernthal was great in it, solid watch I do recommend, 7/10.

Great cast, solid story! Exceptional TV series! Can't wait for the next episode. Good character development as well. This has the potential to be a regular series. The main character has more than enough substance to carry the weight of the show as do the supporting roles! Its time to see the leading actor shine because his role in The Walking Dead was cut short.
Enjoy this roller coaster and hang to this RIDE. You won't be disappointed. Just wish the network would release the first two episodes in the same day. Gotta wait to see next week's cliffhanger. So grab your drinks and snacks for this new series from Showtime!
Please watch the first episode b4 making any rash comments!

Is this show going to win any awards? No. But did I enjoy it enough to binge it all in 2 days? Yes.
I found it entertaining and an easy show to watch, Jon was great in it. Rosie was amazing, bringing comedic relief to a non comedy can be cringe but it was done so well.
People complain about the flashbacks but I didn't mind them at all. It shows what the character is thinking about in that month.
Feel very sorry for the main character in this, and to be honest there are a lot of "oh that's so silly" moments in the show, but I've given it a 7 for entertainment value and good acting. And Shirtless Jon. That helps.

Bernthal isn't Gere, but he is every bit as handsome. And, since that day on Walking Dead when he shaved his head with his shirt off, he has been noticed by every woman with a television screen.
What I like about this series is the background on Julian supplied by the writers. It acknowledges the smarminess of lives of sex workers in a way that that upends the fantasy in movies. Sadly, most sex workers have endured enormous childhood abuse that teaches them how to turn off in intimacy. Because they couldn't trust the very people who were supposed to care for them as children, they learn at an early age just how unsafe it is to be themselves.
The first episode shows us exactly where Julian feels safe. He likes prison because he has food and shelter, and he understands the rules. If something bad is going to happen, he goes to his safe place. Freedom brings him a lot more problems. He isn't sure he can be free as a gigolo, but he knows he can make a living at it.
This series is about the vulnerable Julian. It has promise.
