Title: Amazon Originals

Figured this may as well get a catchall thread since there's like 6 every season now. Of these, the only one I haven't watched is the Ron Perlman one, but I fully intend to. Here was the feedback I gave Amazon on the others:

A lot of this round of pilots is purely masturbatory drama crap. Soderbergh is trying too hard to be an every-man Bret Easton Ellis and I'm not sure why anyone would want that. Hysteria's pilot wasn't a pilot. It didn't actually give a snapshot of what a season would be like so I'm not even sure what's going on. The premise, however, is dreadful. Jay Chandrasekhar wasn't really stretching the boundaries of what he's capable of - Modern Family with mostly childless people worried about getting old and making dick jokes isn't exactly his best work.

The Cosmopolitans was just trash. It's like Vicky Christina Barcelona gave birth to an autistic child. That child is The Cosmopolitans.
