Couldn't even finish the first episode.


I only checked it out to see Olyphant but it sucks. Drew Barrymore lost her figure too. I know that pilot episodes are often weak and some shows do improve, but this just felt way off. I don't see an episode 2 in my future.

Drew Barrymore lost her figure he says. Loserrr who bases their opinion of a show off that?! It's a really good show and you're in the minority thinking it sucks.

Who cares if Drew "lost her figure" (according to you)? I'm so sick of people constantly judging women on how they look. She is playing a typical suburban housewife. A lot of women look like her. She is in her 40s with two young kids (2 and 4 years old). She recently divorced and mentioned having a difficult time because she really wanted to raise her kids in a traditional family, unlike the craziness she grew up in coming from a Hollywood family. Obviously she had more pressing issues to deal with than keeping her figure just to appease shallow people. I think Drew looks fine. She's not playing some sex symbol on this show. She looks like a normal, average woman and there's not one thing wrong with that.

Stop being butthurt because someone voiced an opinion, which they are free to do. Go to your safe space.

reply

If they go to a safe space they'll likely find you there first, since you seem to have been triggered by someone else voicing an opinion you don't agree with.

And they have a point. What does her figure have to do with the enjoyment of this show?

reply

Risey needs a safe space.

Funny how the people who rail loudest and longest about safe spaces are themselves in need of a safe space...

I don't know if you're aware of this but I've already changed things. I killed Ben Linus.

What's wrong with you, man? Everyone has the right to a opinion. Are you her father? So se ''lost her figure'....so what? Why are you so mad about this? ''I'm so sick of people ....judging women on how they look''??!!! This is just lame. Yeah...we are so superficial. Thank God you're not. Amen to that! Are you feelin' better?
You don't have to be good all the time.....only when it matters

For those put off by the first episode based on acting, Barrymore in particular felt really off in her acting. It's only so noticeable in the first episode and almost caused me to tune out. Everything about the show gets better as it goes along. While it's not amazing it has some really great laughs.
