The Oval

Honestly, I can't figure out if it's:

• so bad, that it's hilarious

OR

• if it's hilarious bc it's so bad

If you enjoyed watching "stories" with your grandma as a child, you will enjoy this show in a weirdly sadistic type of way.

Painful to watch. How on earth it was renewed for 2nd season? Should be illegal. CIA can use it during interrogations. I would tell them everything. I would probably rat out my own children just to make it stop. Anyone watching it should seriously seek medical professional.

Every show or movie that this guy puts out is 100% formulaic, shallow, dumb and without a hint of any vision, imagination or interesting storyline. Its like he has a show/film generator and he just adjusts a few names/characters and storyline and calls it a new show. EVERY character on this show is absolutely stereotypical with zero development or ambiguity, they all act predictable and you know from the start where this is going. You would have to actually try hard to make a show with less originality and imagination. What is even more sad for me is that this guy is supposedly pushing "boundaries" claimed by african-american various group however he is just basically exploiting them and using everybody as his personal mealtickets with every show, movie or program that he puts out so he can live in a palace. Shameless.

I agree with all the other comments worst programme I have ever seen in the UK

... horrible, but, for some reason, you can't take your eyes away from it.

I also wanted to like this show, but the writing, acting, directing, and phony White House are all sooooo bad. That said, it's badness is mesmerizing, so I keep watching.
