Pam & Tommy

This show really started off strong, had no issue being raunchy with some gratuitous display of nudity and sex and craziness. But right off the bat, after the third episode, it was all too fairy tale like Tommy Lee wasn't a piece of garbage in reality whose relationship with Pam was littered with unfortunate events, and Anderson's worst problem was the male patriarchy who kept her career from flourishing past sex symbol status.

In simple words, the story is very basic, and beyond the skin-deep superficial premise of tabloid sensationalism lies nothing more than two people who are just operating in a world dictated by a script that never really goes anywhere. It was actually quite shocking to see that Craig Gillespie made this because it does have that look I, Tonya had, which is one of my favorite movies of all time, but lacks the heart and emotion that I, Tonya had no trouble delivering to its audience. Its unfortunate, but I don't think I am going to finish this, there is not enough in their story to warrant its length.

Wow.... people are seriously so spoiled these days. The show is great! The actors are great! The story is great. The cinematography, the writing, the editing... everything is great. I don't know what people want these days. Everyone has completely unrealistic expectations and the second they're not 110% met they start complaining. We didn't have shows like this 20 years ago. We had slow boring crap. And leave Seth Rogen alone. I'm not a fan of him either but he's so freaking good in this! And don't get me started on Pamela... this little lady absolutely nailed it!! Is it EXACTLY 210% like Pamela Anderson? No. It's a different person playing Pamela Anderson. Duh.

Seriously... people need to chill out with their expectations. It's getting out of control. Watch this!! It's soooo good and well done!

I liked the show and part of me wants to rate it highly because Sebastian Stan and Lily James did a spectacular job in their roles and I think it was a good lesson to people on the trauma and invasion of privacy Tommy Lee and especially Pamela went through. It also showed how awful, exploitive, and plain unhelpful the world was in response to it when they should have been appalled and supportive. BUT despite how good I felt the show was I did not realize until afterwards when I decided to look up how accurate the events were when I learned that Pamela Anderson never gave consent for this to be made. Tommy Lee gave his but he wasn't even asked for it until after it's creation so they probably would have released it consent or no. That's honestly messed up and makes them no better than the people that exploited the couple in the past. For it to be a show about consent they should have had the consent of the two people it's about. Had I known prior, I would have felt obligated not to watch it. That being said, I did feel the show did a good job of empathizing Pamela and Tommy Lee's situation in a way that speaks for many who have found themselves in similar ordeals.

The story is told in a perspective of multiple characters which already makes it an unexpected treat... You wonder if it's worth watching? I thought I'd regret ,but it's more than just the story of Pam and Tommy, it's a somewhat great portrayal of the 90's era, when every teenager wanted a girlfriend similar to Pam and Pam is that Barbie girl prototype many girls aimed to be well at least physically ... Also this show is full of great 90's songs and a moral to treat people that work for you with respect, because Karma is a bit## ...

Pam and Tommy is a scandalous look into the wild life of actress Pamela Anderson and Musician, Tommy Lee - portrayed by Lily James and Sebastian Stan who bother deliver with their compelling performances. The pacing is sharp, the tone is raunchy and wild & the soundtrack is nostalgic and awesome. The show cleverly explores the invasion of privacy, celebrity life & the rise of the internet.
