Filthy Rich

I'm bored and I don't want to be. I was really looking forward to this show but it's cheesy and not in a good way. It seems like it plays around with being scandalous but it doesn't even come close. The characters are vanilla and the storyline is dull. For a good southern drama that packs on a punch I suggest watching "On Becoming a God in Central Florida".

Loved it and loved seeing Kim in this role. She definitely has the chops to carry a show. So sorry it got cancelled :( wish someone would start a petition so somewhere like Netflix could pick it up for another season.

This is only a review of episode 1, and subject to change as it goes on.

It starts out very weak and boring but gets interesting by the start of act 2. Act 3 is where it starts to get pretty good so I look forward to seeing more. I hadn't seen the original New Zealand one but it's nice to put more live action shows to watch on my list. The Ginger character is already one I'm excited to see more of. I like how this show has an emphasis on female representation. Even as a male, we need more of that. I look forward to watching all 10 episodes.

6.5/10 rounded up to 7 for the poll.

Episodes 2-3 are also on Hulu right now as part of a promotion between Fox, Hulu, and Blue Moon.

First, to all the people who are commenting on "what did Kim Cattrall do to her face?" Nothing, from what I can tell. However, in multiple scenes with close-ups, her face has been CGI air-brushed. They have made her look like Jeff Bridges in the new Tron or Kurt Russell in Guardians of the Galaxy 2. But she didn't do it to herself. They have some *bad* CGI effects on this show, from the house burning down in the opening sequence to the jet engine on fire to, yes, Kim Cattrall's face. I'm hoping these bad CGI effects are only in the pilot, but we shall see.

Second, this is at least the 3rd show with the same title. This one is directly adapted from the recent New Zealand show, but there was a sitcom in the 80s with a similar theme starring Dixie Carter. I have a vague recollection of that from my childhood.

I find this show to be fluffy & light, and sometimes, that's all I need from a show. I have a lot of serious shows that I watch, and sometimes I just really want to watch something that doesn't take a lot of effort but makes me smile. Jury is still out, but I enjoyed the pilot.

First of all, I LOVE GINGER. I literally loved her character so much I kept watching the show just because of her. This show wasn't that bad, although it did have some stereotypical scenes against christians. And ngl there were some really cringe-worthy scenes and lines too but I guess that's the charm of this show.
