Here and Now slipped for me in episode 2. A lot of the dialogue sounds very written. The whole thing doesn't feel as organic as I would like. It feels more like a writer with a list of issues he feels he has to touch on, and ticking off those boxes as he goes.
Also, what a terrible title.
I am somewhat fascinated by elements of the Gianni Versace thing. I'm amazed I didn't know that some of that stuff happened. Unfortunately the most recent episode was crap. Just a bunch of poorly structured filler. As with Here and Now it feels like the writer wants to touch on issues - in this case, the difficulties of being gay in America - stupid intolerance - gays in the military yada yada - which is a worthy issue in general . . . it just doesn't have anything to do with the Versace deal. It feels shoehorned in.
But I definitely want to see where it goes once it gets back to the story at hand.
