Three Women

This show has been airing but I ignored as I thought it was the movie that was on a month ago called a similar name. So I'm binge watching and I'm on the 5th episode. I've decided even if the rest are horrible? I'd still give it a 10. It's just that well done! Even better is that it's a true story. One that's truly imperfectly but perfectly honest. If you are female, I'm sure there's something here for you. If you are an open minded male? You too. If you are a guy who likes a women that's great at faking the big o you'll probably hate this. Hence the lowball ratings from a few lol. Bonus points the the musical director in this!! Hit damn! I even forgot about a few of these gems! Definitely getting the soundtrack if available. Lighting guy... can't forget you! Your awesome! A movie I can see . Not all darkened scenes! Thank you! Sound! Thank you for keeping it on the level! Great job! Wardrobe. Chefs kiss to you. Needless to say, the writer and director in this stand out. It's perfectly executed the way life really does often present! I wish you all every award there is! I'd mention the actors but I'm not finished watching and don't want to forget to acknowledge anyone. Watch it! It's right up there with queens gambit.

A series about women, for women, and which I understand is supposed to have some kind of feminist perspective. How could they have missed something as basic as the fact that none of the many long sex scenes contain anything other than penetration? The men in the series act like teenagers in the bed.

Complete absence of caresses, hands and tongue. Are the creators familiar with something called the clitoris?

Otherwise, its an ok show but nothing rememberable. It feels slow and i find the storyline about the writer booring. Linas character and storyline is the only one which feels more interesting.

Lisa Taddeo actually went and met these women and wrote about their lives - these negative reviews are so harsh and criticizing the storylines - that's how they actually happened - this show is based on true stories that Lisa wrote about in a book and now it's been made into a show - I really don't understand the harsh criticism I've read. I am loving the show so far but that might also be because I read the book. I am not a big reader (I'd like to be) but I really enjoyed her book so to see these characters brought to life - I am really appreciating reimagining this story with these actors and getting to watch these stories about real women, played out by women, directed and written by women - so any criticism of how "anti-feminist" it is is just weird. I like the show.

After 3 episodes we unfortunately fell off this show. We liked the first episode and the show is filled with a lot of talented actresses, the second episode was brilliantly acted but not that convincing in regards of pacing and script and already boringly sex focussed. With the third episode it really delves into mommy porn territory and we really failed to see the depth and were really bored.

I am sure there will be some great parts in the rest of the episodes but we are too old and ununterested in drawn out and rather explicit sex scenes.

It is great to see Gilpin being given material to really work with but i guess a show about the sexual lifestyle of 3 US women is just not our cup of tea.

I admit I was skeptical during the first episode, which felt heavy handed with its use of narration, a bit gratuitous with some of the nudity, and a little too familiar with its stories of female sexuality. But I'm really glad I stuck with the show beyond that episode, because it turned out to be a deep and thoughtful character study of flawed, but very relatable and/or intriguing characters. As the series went on I continually went back and forth over which storyline I found most compelling, but now having seen all 10 episodes, I can honestly say I didn't have a favorite because they were all so interesting. The performances by all the leads were also exceptional and even the lesser known supporting cast really shined throughout. I highly recommend this series to anyone who's interested in great storytelling, complex characters, and terrific acting.
