Les derniers jours de Ptolemy Grey

OMG when did Samuel Jackson go from being a top shelf actor to a world class thespian. Seriously the performance he brings to bear here is absolutely stunning and deserving of every award and acologue that exists. It's unfortunate that this is debuting early in the year which is generally not a good time relative to getting acknowledgment for rewards.

The insight and sensitivity that this program shows towards both the realities of dementia and the realities of dealing with unresolved trauma long term are amazing. Just try not to fall in love with Ptolemy Gray. Just try not to get drawn into this story. Just try not to laugh, cry and to think this over long after you are done viewing it. This is what the best kind of programming is all about. Don't miss this or you will miss something very important.

I cant say enough great things. This pulls at the heart strings. I cared for my elderly grandmother and this brings back a lot of beautiful memories as well as deep regret for mistakes made. It's not easy caring for the elderly especially if you have alot going on. Even those of us with the best intentions bite off more than we can chew resulting in the suffering of others.. Samuel L Jackson is nothing short of spectacular genius. Absolutely magnificent and kept me weeping. Cant wait for more. Thank you.

The topics this tv series covers are difficult and sad, they did a great job at developing this story.

Samuel L. Jackson might be doing with this his best work in his career so far: if this was a motion picture he'd deserved an Oscar.

All other actors are also doing a great job.

The usual great acting one expects from Jackson, but, also some serious work by. Dominique Fishback who plays Robyn. The rest of the cast were also,, awesome. I recommend this to anyone who wishes to see a good story;.

AppleTV+ runs "The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey" concurrently with the series "Severance," dropping a new episode every Friday. While the two shows could not be more different in format, they actually share a similar theme - memories. "Severance" is getting accolades for a slow burn that leads up to a spectacular finale. Unfortunately for "Ptolemy Grey" it's the opposite, starting out strong with a fascinating concept but dwindles severely in the last episode. Nevertheless, it is enjoyable to continue seeing the work of Samuel L. Jackson. Here, his 'dementia acting' rises to the same level as Anthony Hopkins's Oscar-winning portrayal of an Alzheimer's patient in "The Father." I hope Samuel L. Jackson wins an award for this role. Another gem to come out of this series is the talented Dominique Fishback. I have never heard of her before this series. She portrays Robyn convincingly with a perfect blend of sass and heart. She will be recognized and I can see a bright future ahead of her. As a bonus, we also get a glimpse of the trusty Walton Goggins as the doctor. Overall, this short series is worthwhile to watch; just don't get your hopes up for a satisfying final 6th episode.
