Chivalry

Normally Coogan in post partridge is execrable, everything he has been in is worse than imaginable. In this however he tries not to be funny but actually is a lot better for it. Actually rather watchable in fact. Solemani seems to be in a totally unsuitable woke marriage that seems totally unbelievable. She does seem to enjoy prancing about in knickers which showcase her enviable figure. The premise of post metoo is rather clumsily done and written for effect, the scenes in LA are beautifully shot and give it a slick feel. Having said that I felt compelled to watch it to the rather unsatisfactory ending.

This was a really clever show.

The message was very strong and it was very brave of the writers to approach those issues.

The relationship with Bobby and Cameron is incredible to watch.

I really hope they have a second series.

Well done to all involved.

A feminist filmmaker is brought into a film production to make it more appropriate for female audiences. Stars Steve Coogan.

I watched the first 2 episodes and quickly realised this was not funny. The third episode drops a huge bombshell. I started to realise this was not in fact a comedy but a drama with social commentary.

I really like Coogan's work and he comes with an excellent back catalogue but this is not good. It's not funny, it's not very interesting, it's almost pointless as a TV show. Almost. Avoid.

I'm glad I didn't read the reviews before watching as some of them would have been very off putting. I thought it was a bit off the wall but very watchable. I will say it was slow to start though and I notice a lot of the bad reviews say they gave up after one or 2 episodes. I'm glad I persevered. From episode 3 on I was hooked. Morally ambiguous characters but that was part of what made it really thought provoking. Alan Partridge it isn't so don't go in expecting that but that doesn't make it bad, just different.

First thing I have ever seen Steve Coogan in I didn't appreciate. Cast is ok, (except for Aisling Bea hamming it up as usual), but the script is confusing and the "plot'/purpose of this programme unclear. Overall this is just a turn off. Steve Coogan so often totally nails whatever he is involved in. Not here, not sure why! But maybe just the co-writing collaboration doesn't work. Really disappointed because I wanted and expected to like it because of Steve, but just couldn't.
