The topics this tv series covers are difficult and sad, they did a great job at developing this story.
Samuel L. Jackson might be doing with this his best work in his career so far: if this was a motion picture he'd deserved an Oscar.
All other actors are also doing a great job.

As the title indicates, we are looking at the end of a man's life - and that life is not ending well. Ptolemy Grey once had a woman he loved, friends, family - but he has finally outlived them all and is now sinking into dementia.
But from the first few minutes of the series, we know three things about him: he has a plan, he has a gun, and he has nothing left to lose. What a great set-up...
This show is well cast, beautifully acted, and does an amazing job of taking us into Grey's world of confusion, suspicion, victimization and loss. But we are also piecing together his past life - little bits here and there that begin to form a picture of who this man was and still is.
It's been a long time since I've seen anything this good on television.
As of this writing, the show has an overall IMDB rating of 6.8 - about what you'd expect for a bland sitcom or a YA show. How the heck does that happen?

The usual great acting one expects from Jackson, but, also some serious work by. Dominique Fishback who plays Robyn. The rest of the cast were also,, awesome. I recommend this to anyone who wishes to see a good story;.
This might be the best performance I've seen from Samuel Jackson. The way he delivers his lines, and his body language nuances really show he did his homework on dementia. He is simply phenomenal in his role. The direction is pretty well done too. The camera lens becomes blurry along the periphery of the frame when we are seeing Ptolemy Grey's point of view as his eyesight become worse with age. We feel and see the world from his point of view. Now the rest of the cast is nothing to sneeze at because surprising, every other cast member gave extremely good performances as well. Especially the young Dominique Fishback. She pulled her weight alongside Jackson and that's not an easy thing to do at such a young age. I would love to see Jackson make more serious drama roles like this film. The directors should also be commended for getting such good acting performances from the cast.
At the time I am writing this review, the third episode has not aired yet. But I think I know how it will end. Two clues have led me to what I believe the third episode will reveal. I will not explicit say who murdered Reggie Lloyd, but I believe the directors has given us two important clues. I don't want to ruin it for anyone else but anyone who has paid close attention can probably figure out what I think whodunit. Ptolemy vows he will find out who murdered his favorite nephew, Reggie. The opening scene of the first episode is the second clue. I'll leave it at that :)
This film reminds me of two other good thrillers that deal with dementia. Jackson will join the club of distinguished actors like Anthony Hopkins in "The Father (2020)" and Christopher Plummer in "Remember (2015)"
Bravo Samuel Jackson!

Great characters and great acting. I am very drawn into the story and looking forward to the next episode, but there's a definite feeling that there may be trouble ahead.
I've just finished episode 3. This is very well written and very engagingly portrayed. The dialogue is natural and witty and the characters are strong and distinct. I love the relationship between Ptolemy and Robyn. There are mysteries to be unravelled, but time might be tight.

- QuizWhen the camera shifts to Ptolemy's perspective, images shown are blurry, limiting the viewer to a small portion of clear image at the center of the screen. This effect mimics eyesight on people with dementia and their perception of the world - they cannot see clearly or properly, making it difficult to keep routines like walking around, without injuries or disorienting episodes.
