Les derniers jours de Ptolemy Grey

AppleTV+ runs "The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey" concurrently with the series "Severance," dropping a new episode every Friday. While the two shows could not be more different in format, they actually share a similar theme - memories. "Severance" is getting accolades for a slow burn that leads up to a spectacular finale. Unfortunately for "Ptolemy Grey" it's the opposite, starting out strong with a fascinating concept but dwindles severely in the last episode. Nevertheless, it is enjoyable to continue seeing the work of Samuel L. Jackson. Here, his 'dementia acting' rises to the same level as Anthony Hopkins's Oscar-winning portrayal of an Alzheimer's patient in "The Father." I hope Samuel L. Jackson wins an award for this role. Another gem to come out of this series is the talented Dominique Fishback. I have never heard of her before this series. She portrays Robyn convincingly with a perfect blend of sass and heart. She will be recognized and I can see a bright future ahead of her. As a bonus, we also get a glimpse of the trusty Walton Goggins as the doctor. Overall, this short series is worthwhile to watch; just don't get your hopes up for a satisfying final 6th episode.

I cant say enough great things. This pulls at the heart strings. I cared for my elderly grandmother and this brings back a lot of beautiful memories as well as deep regret for mistakes made. It's not easy caring for the elderly especially if you have alot going on. Even those of us with the best intentions bite off more than we can chew resulting in the suffering of others.. Samuel L Jackson is nothing short of spectacular genius. Absolutely magnificent and kept me weeping. Cant wait for more. Thank you.

Just simply a spectacular piece of acting by Samuel L. Jackson! It's surprising to me that no one I know is familiar with the show, more so when it's on Apple TV+.

If we took the time to get to know the life of a 91 year old person, what kind of a past would we uncover? As his mind returns, he is transformed from a senile old man who many of us would just ignore and set aside in today's society, to become a vibrant, sharp, shrewd man whose intellect runs circles around everyone around him. He uses his heightened mind and memories to make the most of the time he has to set things right.

In addition to Jackson, the supporting cast is exceptional. This is a high quality show that should get more attention. It feels slow at times in the first couple of episodes, but it does gain speed. Looking forward to seeing how the plot unravels.

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;.

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.
