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.

I really enjoyed watching this show and thought it was well done. Pam and Tommy were obviously a fun loving couple and I knew the series would be stylish and sexy, but I respected how the filmmakers focused in on the gratuitous denigration Pamela Anderson received during the experience of their privacy being shamelessly publicized and monetized. It was disgusting and deplorable how easily people caricatured her, especially because those home videos so obviously represented the sheer love and happiness the couple shared in their marriage, HOWEVER, I lowered my would-be 9 rating to a 7 when I lost respect for the filmmakers after learning that they never got Pamela Anderson's approval in making the series. Knowing how the scandal ruined her marriage to Tommy Lee and caused them such shame and heartbreak why publicly expose their pain again, ultimately ALSO MONETIZING off of it by reenacting and releasing their story without their blessing? If I were her I'd almost feel like my intimacy was stolen all over again. I'm sure that the cast and crew had good intentions, but whether or not they represented her as the gracious and respectable human being that Pamela Anderson is, I don't think that they actually respected her by making the biopic.

Seth Rogan is hilarious in this. And I thought the actors playing Pam and Tommy did a pretty decent job. I feel bad for Pam, she didn't deserve this revenge that Tommy's A-hole personality and ripping off contractors brought down on her.

I understand she wants nothing to do with this series, but I think they have actually been quite sympathetic to her in this series. She isn't the Bad Guy, Tommy is and obviously WAS back then.

Really Great Music too.

Worth a watch if your a Fan of Pam, Tommy, or Seth.

Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee's honeymoon sex tape is stolen and leaked to the public.

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.

Lily James was always underrated, she has proven now that she can take on much more versatile roles. She showed that she can act as Pamela Anderson. Hope she gets more mainstream and bigger roles now.
