The Good Lord Bird

Was expecting a lot of woke and no substance, but this surprised me. Life can be funnier than any piece of fiction. It's a dark comedy. Ethan Hawke is amazing. Gets better with each episode.

The dialogue and characters in this show are gold, but Hawke's is a sparkling diamond. He plays a loveable madman that lights up each scene! This is a really enjoyable show, overall.

I didnt even knew the story of John Brown because i am not american. I really like the portrait it make of man with lights and shadows. It remains me so much of "El Quijote" and thats why I really liked it.

Ethan wooooooow! The act of his life, I believe this show is great but Ethan he is changing into one of the best actors of these recent years! Welldone , Just wow!

I have to say The Good Lord Bird wasn't what I was expecting. Not in a bad way, it's a very good show, I just wasn't expecting it to be so funny. I was expecting a drama filled story with plenty of violence and it was those things too but it's also funny. As always, Ethan Hawke was fantastic here and was nominated for a bunch of awards for his performance. Hawke is great in just about everything he does but this might be his best performance of his career (outside of Training Day). This show wouldn't be the same without him. The series has gotten great reviews by pretty much everyone as it currently has a 98% on Rotten Tomatoes. It's only a 7 episode miniseries so you can binge through it pretty quick and I recommend you do.
