People are still dropping dead from covid and this show is about the decimation of the population by a pandemic. Is it in poor taste or tone deaf to air this during a pandemic? A lot of people are trying to recover from the deaths of loved ones and this show would just trigger a lot of sad/painful memories in viewers.
shareYes
shareArt and story telling should never self-censor for things of the moment. Also, the notion of "tone-deaf" is horrible and is just a way of shaming people when they have ideas that make you feel uncomfortable. What a horrible and intellectually nullifying term.
shareMy only gripe is no one stopped them from making the show to begin with. That's where the idea needed to be stopped.
shareIt was a pretty decent series, that ended this week.
I thought first episode was decent. Then a ton of boring garbage. Then last 2 episodes were pretty decent. Not great, but decent to watch.
I didn't like the whole travelling symphony performing Shakespeare they were cramming down our throats. Not my cup of tea so I'm probably being a bit harsh.
It's just like the settling of the West, since the Bible was the most common book in the oldWest, if Shakespeare is the only thing people know, that's what they'll get and be happy to get it.
There's a lot to criticize in this series, but I give it a lot of points for reaching for something unique and different.
It certainly is different and unique. And I'm sure if i lived through something like that then id enjoy the Shakespeare plays. But as a show, i plan to try the next season. Hopefully its more like the last 2 episodes.
shareIt's about survival and coping as much as anything else.
And isn't airing. It's available on HBOMAX, so read the summary and decide if you wanna watch it or not. There's no force-airing involved.
Nobody is fording you to watch it you know.
sharePeople die of absolutely everything, everyday, 365 days a year for centuries.
By your logic we should stop making shows about death in general.
Don't watch it if you think it is inappropriate

agreed
share.....so don't watch it? Not everyone is a big fat fucking pussy who needs to find I insult in everything. Fuck off.
shareDamn, you people are salty as fuck, lol. Classic IMDB.
Well honestly, I'm really just talking about Naptown, Galiguy, and TrentnQuarantino.
I mean, I do agree that no one is forcing him to watching it (not to mention it's showing on HBO Max, so it's not like it's on local television or some movie being released worldwide), and I do think he is overreacting a bit. But I'm sure there a thousand nicer ways for you guys to reply back. Instead of calling him a "big fat fucking pussy" or a "wimp" or a "troll". I mean, imagine calling someone a "troll" or a "wimp" for not wanting to watch a show about the panini.
Are you guys eight years old? Fuck off already.
Does being a save-a-ho make your pussy tingle?
