My headline says it all. But I fell in love with George Dobbs merely because he looked fantastic in his clothes. The 20's, 30's & 40's were the superior decades for men's fashion. Plus his voice had a familiar, sincere Bolger-esque quality.
But my romantic entanglements don't end with he... i also fell deeply in love with The Heat Waves right from the start. Rhythm is Our Business is one of my fave tunes & their cover is memorable. Then when they came back for a costumed & orchestra accompanied tap number!?... Well, I was sunk, gate. Now I find myself searching the world wide web for these men's names and have come up completely too short. So, I'll make it a mission to try and remedy that.

Mandy Patinkin gives this show clout but it also makes it clear that even a distinguished actor as he is sometimes takes a job for the money. That's all fine and good, by the way.
But I found the writing so stale, contrived and derivative. So much so that I am pretty darn sure they use flashbacks to confuse the audience, This way viewers don't noticed the plot holes that would otherwise be glaringly obvious.
Also... man the lighting sucks. It looks like a beer commercial or worse... an industrial. Even the music sounds so much like a White Lotus rip-off that I am surprised they're not being sued.

The first 10 minutes we SO PROMISING! The combination of great casting of the 2 leads, great makeup/hair and awesome reproduction of memorable scenes from the original 1931 Dracula made me wet my pants.
But after those short glorious minutes it all went downhill like a concrete gocart. Awkwafina is not good enough yet to handle a starring role. She's very likable. She's just not capable, yet.
The premise is fantastic, but the writing is really unimaginative. The premise deserved better.
It's reminiscent of What We Do In The Shadows, VERY. But WWDITS is more fun. You can tell when writers give up trying when the F word is used so much. And I'm also pissed off that they made me sound like a crotchety old coot saying that. But it's true... AF.
