Filthy Rich

This is only a review of episode 1, and subject to change as it goes on.

It starts out very weak and boring but gets interesting by the start of act 2. Act 3 is where it starts to get pretty good so I look forward to seeing more. I hadn't seen the original New Zealand one but it's nice to put more live action shows to watch on my list. The Ginger character is already one I'm excited to see more of. I like how this show has an emphasis on female representation. Even as a male, we need more of that. I look forward to watching all 10 episodes.

6.5/10 rounded up to 7 for the poll.

Episodes 2-3 are also on Hulu right now as part of a promotion between Fox, Hulu, and Blue Moon.

First of all, I LOVE GINGER. I literally loved her character so much I kept watching the show just because of her. This show wasn't that bad, although it did have some stereotypical scenes against christians. And ngl there were some really cringe-worthy scenes and lines too but I guess that's the charm of this show.

"Filthy Rich" (S01, 10eps, 1hr, Fox) was a surprisingly irreverent look at Big Religion and now you know why it was cancelled; it would've gotten two seasons at least at Netflix or Amazon. In fact, actor Aaron Lazar's character immediately recalls Joel Osteen. However, it ended at a good point. Many dramas get worse as time goes on, season after season, so I'm happy that its only season was hard-hitting and really entertaining.

I watched 3 episodes and it was too boring. I don't see this show getting picked up.

This is not Masterpiece Theatre, it is cheap tawdry fun with great satire and a great cast, plenty eye candy and the writers have hit their groove.
