Paradise Lost

... that make it hard for me to like or continue with a TV-Serie. This might sound arrogant or biased but once I got my attention to the nonacting-skills of Bridget Regan as Frances I couldn't find much good beeing fixated by her overdone gestures and facial expressions. Having said that, the other actors and how their characters are shown didn't leave much room for me to draw any kind of feelings or affection for them. Since Paradise Lost is labeled as drama, to me that goes to the actings and the script plus the lousy music, the mystery to me is how could I ever find the time or patience to go along with ten episodes of it.

Paradise Lost probably doesn't offer anything new to the "small town with big secrets" genre, so maybe that's why it's not getting more buzz? But it was entertaining enough that I binged it over the course of two days and would keep watching if it gets renewed. My only hope for the second season is that Nick Nolte and Barbara Hershey get more to do as they were criminally underused in the first season.

I was skeptical about the show but somehow it wormed its way into my psyche. Every time I thought I had it figured out it just diverted into a different direction. It was unpredictable and interesting. I really hope they bring it back for a second season.

This TV show is not on HBO MAX, the movie is (no relation) but TV is not.

I was an extra in this movie and I have yet to be able to watch it? Does anyone know how and where? I just want to see the scene I'm in. 😫 I would love to hear from anyone that might know.
