The Loudest Voice

The story was "good" leading up to the final episode- but a whole second series/season could be done to satisfy the curiosity of what occurred afterwards... the few paragraphs posted at the end, really don't do much to appease an audience that watched this play out in real time; a "great" story would be one that covers the behind the scene frantic-antics that FOX had to put into motion to recover from this.

The acting was phenomenal. Everything was perfectly done- it just left you hanging with an empty void that could have been satisfied with 3 or 4 more episodes that showed how FOX handled the rest of the story.

Russell Crowe gains a quarter of a metric ton, loses a bushel of hair (he now has a toilet seat hairline), and rediscovers his acting chops! Built for comfort not speed. The scythe-sharp one-liners chortled by the rubenesque Crowe make this show a must watch. Well, along with strong support from Sienna Miller, Naomi Watts, and Seth McFartlane. The latter being an unexpected surprise. I'm sure he's quite humored by the parallels between the new and improved Crowe and Peter Griffin. They also nailed the white as plucked poultry complexion of Fox News as well. Back to Crowe though, easily his best since Romper Stomper. Which was also not unlike plucked poultry. Whether you interpret the show as satire, muckraking, the stone truth about Fox, or all of the above, it works. Keep eating, Crowe!

I'm not American, I didn't know who Roger Ailes was. I only became aware of his existence a little before he died, just another fat cat with long arms and powerful connections who finally got what he deserved. I came into this for the cast and, to be frank, I was really curious. I like the story, the pace, the writing, I believe there is a fine balance between the informative and the political aspect. But really...the most important thing to say here is that Russell Crowe is CAPTIVATING!!! He is a seasoned actor, but the guy here is doing an astonishing job for which he deserves some kind of recognition. Bravo!!

I have just watched the first two episodes and really enjoyed the writing, the direction and the acting but particularly Russell Crowe as Roger Ailes you can tell that he took all of his nuances on and just engrossed himself in the role completely.

I highly recommend this show and as the title suggests Crowe should get an Emmy for this portrayal.

I literally have no words to describe the beauty of the actors they chose to play in this series. Russell Crowe, Naomi Watts, Sienna Miller, Seth MacFarlane. What else do you want to name this a GOLDMINE.

It feels like a movie but at the same time it's not a movie. There is so much tension you really can't follow if you don't love it from the beginning.
