Pretentious and Overbearing - a Show about Nothng
This is one of those shows that we are told that if we don't like it we aren't smart enough to get it. It is literally about nothing. It has a "protagonist" that simply bounces from scene to scene without any direction. None of her interactions moves the story along because there is no STORY beyond the alleged concept! We are supposed to "like" the fact that nothing happens from scene to scene.
It's a story, we are told, about a bored American actress doing a remake of a classic French Vampire show. WOW! HOW COMPELLING! Then nothing happens! It is literally a show that meanders from scene to scene with no apparent connection and we are STUPID if we don't get it!
Sorry! I don't want to waste my time.
It's a shame because I really like the lead actress (so 2 stars for that) but that's not enough to make a show that is, on it's face, stupid, into something that is meaningful. It just ISN'T!
