Paul T. Goldman

This guy is a real life Michael Scott. It reminds me of his he wrote screenplay of Michael Scarn. He's kooky but has an innocence to him that makes him likeable. His life is unbelievable sure, but mainly because of what he does and the choices he makes. The cast is unbelievable, and help make the story come to life. The way it all unfolds is creative and you get a real life behind the scenes as it's told. One of the most entertaining series I've watched in a long time and I haven't been this excited about a show since Tiger King. I binge watched it all in one night. Definitely worth your time.

I love the premise that a non-actor played the lead role about a story that actually happened to him in real life.

I do understand that It was probably a bit frustrating for the actors and the entire crew to work with someone with no acting experience. But, hey, who better to play the part than this quirky, gullible and real man? I found it refreshing!

The way the movie was put together is quite rare and I love rarities in life and in movies.

I have done some writing about things that have happened to me and if there isn't some sort of embellishment of a true story you might not grab the audience's attention as well. And, in my eyes, and my words, there is nothing wrong in embellishing.

Kudos to all the non-actors. Actors, director, and the rest of the entire crew for presenting something so quirky, unique and out of the ordinary!!

This is original and highly entertaining. The creators manage to balance out the self indulgent nature of Goldman, as well as the tragi-comédie of his life story. Despite this naive protagonist being horribly duped and taken advantage of, this is by and large a comedy. Am quite surprised by the relatively low rating here (I think many are taking it too seriously) and think it deserves more credit for a really enjoyable spin on true crime storytelling. While one can't help but laugh at the goofy Finkelman/Goldman throughout, he is certainly lovable enough to garner the necessary sympathy to convince the viewer to root for him. I found this far more entertaining than almost anything else on the major networks.

Paul T. Goldman is part Tommy Wiseau from "The Room," part Forrest Gump, a dash of Gene Wilder, a healthy dose of straight up "Florida Man," and all parts ridiculously funny.

His story never stops spiraling, from seriousness to absurdity and back again, like "Serial" meets "The Rehearsal." The more Paul tells us about his life, the less we believe him, and the harder we laugh and shake our heads.

While the show continually "zooms out" to the behind-the-scenes, and even behind-the-behind-the-scenes, for all its confusion it tells the story of a man who is so wildly unpredictable you can't take your eyes off him.

One of the few new shows that made me want ti rewatch episodes. I seriously hope there's another season. Who knows what zany adventure this guy is going to get into next.

I love the format of this show. There are so many layers to it and is the most interesting thing I've seen on TV in years. For all of the people saying this is parody; you're completely missing the point. This whole enterprise is bursting with sincerity. For a decade, Paul has been trying to get his stories told through a movie/series. The production team he is working with is making that happen for him, and presenting it in a truly fascinating spectacle. There's interviews with real parties involved, re-enactments written by Paul, real behind the scenes footage documenting this, and re-enactments of behind the scenes as Paul wants to tell it. This blending of storytelling is a warm welcome in the current landscape of mediocre unoriginality.
