Etoile - new Amy Sherman-Palladino series

Anonymous
I adore her other series, even Bunheads, but find this one completely unwatchable. Anyone else tried it yet? I turned it off ten minutes into the second episode.

I watched the first episode. Debating whether I’ll give the next one a try. What made you decide to give up after 10 minutes?

The cast and writing weren’t gelling for me, and the subject matter isn’t interesting or insightful. All just fell flat imo. From ep 1 of her other shows, I quickly cared about the characters. Not here.

Charmless, little to no wit that lands. Never would have guessed this was ASP.

I love her, but I couldn’t make it through the trailer. It seemed like after school special level of production.

Wow - I love this show and think it is incredibly well done. I’m shocked by these responses

I really like the actor that played Lenny Bruce in Mrs. Maisel so was planning to give this one a try at some point.

Ditto, when I saw he and Emily Gilmore were involved, I definitely want to try it out.

+1 Even Luke Kirby can't make this writing work. He's wasted here.

Haven't watched yet, but does this show have that signature vaudevillian patter that all of ASP's shows have? If so, I'll skip it. Can't stand that kind of dialogue.

Tried watching and it was all in Spanish! Made sure my Prime settings were in English - they were - and still the show’s audio is Spanish. Very weird. Anyone else have this issue?

I made it 15 mins into the first episode and stopped as well.

Now I am definitely watching. Have loved him since Take this Waltz.

Ok I watched the first two episodes. First was pretty painful and boring, then it got much better in the second one. Love Cheyenne, the actress who plays her just is so charismatic. She was great in Coup dr Chance too. Also really like the choreographer. It’s complete hit or miss in terms of scenes, but when good it is lol good.
