Angels In America is by far the WORST television series of 2003!


Of course, some people are going to strongly dislike my review of this overrated miniseries, but so be it.

Angels In America, written by Tony Kusher, is by far the worst television miniseries of 2003.

The reason, first of all, the acting is atrocious, despite all of the "emmys" it won.

Secondly, Mr. Kushner, uses this miniseries, to blast Christians and conservatives alike, anyone who disagrees with his prisoner-takes-all, extremist approach to the birth of AIDS.

The AIDS virus actually started in the mid 1970's but didn't catch on until years later.

This miniseries blames the American government for the spread of this disease, and anyone who dares disagree with it's point of view is viewed as a close minded bigot.

Today, there are over ten million people around the world currently affected with the HIV virus, however, is that the fault of the America government?!

No, it's not! I'm sorry, but the only close minded person is playwright, Tony Kushner, whose support of communism in the 1990s got him blacklisted from many college campuses.

The AIDS virus claimed more lives during the Bill Clinton administration than any other time in it's history. He also signed the highly controversial Defense of Marriage Act of 1996.

However, Mr. Kushner often claims Clinton as a champion of gay rights.

That's why I view Tony Kushner as a hypocrite.

That is the reason why this miniseries is so awful and close minded.

I'm sorry if some people disagree with my opinion, but I'm entitled to it!

Bigoted closet case

I didn't like it because I thought it was boring.

im not saying i disagree with your obviously conservative views, i disagree with the sentiment that this show is the worst series of 2003 just because of it's political leanings. it may have been your least favorite, but it was fairly well made in most regards and so just by those truths alone can't possibly be the WORST. you need to be able to keep those two things apart, dude.

Ok, this post is really old but still i thought i'd add my input. If you really didn't like it, i'd cough it up to differences in taste, vast differences because I thought it was brilliant. But the problem you have with it seems to be what it says (what you think it says). But the message shouldn't be what you judge to determine it's merit, i could disagree with a movie's message 100% and still consider it a good, well made movie. I have a hard time you really believe the actors did a bad job, too.
