Angelyne

This is presented in five episodes on Peacock streaming. In truth one can get enough of the story by watching most of the first episode and all of the last episode, which shows the young girl who eventually became Angelyne and how that developed over her teen and young adult years. I found the last episode to be most interesting.

Like a few others today, Angelyne is best described as "famous for being famous." In truth I have no time for them, I pay no attention to them, I wish they would just go away. So I had little interest in this 5-part series starring Emmy Rossum. So I didn't watch all of it, I skipped around, until I watched all of episode 5.

In all it is very well done and from what I can find online probably very accurate. However if one is not into who Angelyne is then it could be a pretty boring series.

Angelyne is a story about a young woman who wants to be more than life, more than just a woman but an icon. She vapid, selfish and a more than life Barbie doll living in the plastic life of Hollywood in the 80's. It's not a show for everyone as the show itself is look into the superficial empty world of Hollywood starlets, models and people in general. Angelyne although selfishly empty she does have standards and refuses to see her self short. She wants fame but and will do almost anything to obtain it.

This mocumentary on Hollywood's superficial world is hilarious. Emmy is amazing in the role and it's great seeing her bacjk front and center since she left Shameless. Love Emmy and I am enjoying this show. Molly is also great and for some strange reason IMDB as failed to include her in the credits. Which is truly insulting to Molly.

Costumes, set pieces all have a real 80's feel and one of the few shows to pull it off right.

Some of you are missing the point. Angelyne was Instagram before Instagram. Her narcissism, shallowness, and vapidness are the point. I met Angelyne in West Hollywood and she was just like this. Would only take a photo if I bought a signed magazine out the back of her famous pink Corvette.

Famouse for being famous, nothing more, sad instagram life, tiktok braindead, honestly just rewatch Idiocracy it will be better time spend than this what ever it is.

I loved Angelyne! Emmy was fabulous in the role of over-the-top Angelyne. The entire cast was great. It wasn't mean spirited or ridiculing, just sweet. Angelyne was the first celebrity who was famous for being famous. Long before the obnoxious K family.

Watch it for the entertainment value and don't expect high drama. You'll probably enjoy it!
