Good to know others were interested in that shit-show, well sure they're paid to be, but still.
"The White House" ... that one might be too irrealistic an expectation xD

Hippie with a cause , butt ;)
Also Shibez, you don't have to be vegan to preach why eating'em beasts is wrong, if i had the time/money/resolve i'd have made that evolutionary step a long time ago. But wtv... (& i see your point, some o'them b reaaaal obnoxious/borderline psychos).
But srsly, clown school be taking 10 elects/ 2000 applicants, holy sh!t... sounds like a straight up scam.
Matter of taste i guess, the 1st episode got my hopes up, great cast, intriguing premise, originality in an over-exploited genre, then i started recognizing all the secondary roles from sub par Canadians dramas, it started dragging into boring dialogues, poor writing & cliches/ plagiarizing, couldn't make it past the 3rd episode.
If you need a 10 hour show to adapt a comic i could read in 3, time is gonna be wasted, but not @ my expense, you know?
Or just Palme d'or-bait, with the crude nudity that made post-B&W Asian cinema semi-famous in the East, a frustrating, left untied plot (so the show-girl was the daughter that was supposed to be in Australia? how ? why? ), a half-assed depiction of a serious & under-the-rug issue that is extreme poverty in Japan, where some people get themselves locked up to get a roof & free meals (& other developed regions, i.e H-K, where disenfranchised sleep in 24/24 McDonalds rather than their closet-size apartments)...
Still it has its charm & the cinematography ain't half bad, but like a good meal shared by too many, it left a disturbing gargling noise in my metaphorical stomach, as loud as how they slurp their noodles all the movie long (reminded me of Midnight Diner, which, in the same vein, i found better despite the even slower pace). 7/10.
Yeah, "the shape of water" + baaad mutation = this serie C- flick :|
