The Politician

How Come All the High School Students Look 30 Years Old?????

Another great show by Ryan Murphy has seen the daylight. This is a great series, with a great storyline. The acting is fantastic. You will laugh through the series because the lines are so well written. Overall a great show!!!

I only watched two episodes of The Politician and I don't think I can suffer through anymore. These "kids" are supposed to be in high school yet every single one of them looks at least thirty. What high school student wears a suit to school or a sweater set with a pencil skirt ? I love Bette Midler but I couldn't continue watching it.

***EDIT - I watched the rest of season one and all of season two. While I still argue that ALL of the actors look way older than they're supposed to be and that high schoolers don't dress or talk like that it did get better.

I definitely enjoyed the second season a lot more than the first although I can't stand Infinity (Zoey Deutch) has got to be one of the most annoying characters I've ever seen especially her "baby" voice.

If these are the people that assume they will become the next world leaders.. there is no hope for mankind. Not that there is any hope left anyhow.

It's got beautiful, quirky, flawed, interesting characters. I instantly got a Wes Anderson vibe. Pulled me right in.

I hate rating anything artistic. Taste is subjective. So don't go by my Stars. If you like things that are a little off center, give it a try.
