I really wanted to like this but the ostentatious money blowing all in the name of abuses beautiful horses so men can feel powerful is quite the turnoff. I don't care if the pope executive produced this, it's not a broadly appealing topic, there is no one to root for and the filmography and camera shots appear as if this is a first time student film project. This is a sport best kept secret and reserved for those who live with endless resources and nothing better to do. I grew up at the track, we raised thoroughbred race horses where there a rules around whipping, running horses into one another and vets galore to ensure these creatures are not over used and abused. This is barbaric and the goal of drawing people in misses the mark entirely.

Per Meghan Markle, from the engagement I terview to the wedding, we were presented with a rehearsed reality show. The bride was showed with a wedding budget that exceeded $32M, a tiara, gifts, and adoring crowds yet speaking to Oprah she declared this event was for the viewers, they were secretly married 3 days before in a private ceremony. Subsequent to this statement, the Arch Bishop of Cantebry was forced to make a public statement contrary to Ms Markles declaring that there was only one marriage and it was the one televised, anything else would have been illegal. As small as this fib may seem, it was bookend in the Oprah interview with another 14 CNN proven lies all wrapped up in race baiting and family shaming. It's so disheartening to see so much privledge and opportu ity squandered but the real story is the bride cast shadows and dark clouds over her own special day.

You don't need to be a Pete fan but you might be won over by the end. This series will pool you right in without his name or input. His acting is quiet and so well done. He's almost a background character in his own life. He's surrounded by a super star in each episode who gives a similar deep performance. Each episode has a unique twist and perspective on how it's told, from 1-8. The writers, directors, actors and Petes own family all deserve a round of applause. There are a couple of scenes that are obviously dramatization like the joy ride, but it really doesn't matter. At the heart of this series are real people, involved in a few very unreal events (9/11 and stardom) but the beauty of it is for the most part they are grounded and like most other family's you know. Pete's mom may very well be the Queen of Staten Island, but she wears her crown to do dishes, run errands, play sport, and love her family, each for who they are. Loved it. Wish there were more episodes!!
