Now we are here in Xanadu.........
In the penultimate episode, I'd have thought I'd be dying for answers by now. However, now I just want it to end. I had high hopes in the first few episodes but it just seems to be dragging out with not much happening. The final 10 seconds were interesting and here's hoping it leads to an exciting ending. There's no denying a lot of the performances really are great, Asher Keddie (who is very well known in Australia and has accolades for her acting) has been brilliant from the start as has Melissa McCartney whereas others are good but their characters are annoying and it's just hard to watch. I'm really hoping for a big twist or something next week.

Episode 7: Again, 40+ minutes of damaged, drug-induced people with some of them being locked-up for the sake of drama and others who were calm and rational, going half-crazy and badly needing to escape.
Even logic has gone mad and their trip for that group of people may be their last trip.
What I suspected a few episodes back turns to reality. The "priestess" is understaffed and in dire need of a security protection team.

Best episode yet! Nicole Kidman is amazing.

Hollywood should make movies/ tv shows of every thing written by Liane Moriarty. After Big little lies, Liane did it again. In the starting, I didn't liked the characters but now they are looking great and it's making sense. This episode was comparatively shorter but super awesome. Can't wait for the finale!!
That ending, WHAAT.

The actors show all very good performances! The story, the dialoges, the acting, the reality shifts, the tension, the wonderful scenery etc etc.
KIDMAN shows again what an exceptional actress she is taking in consideration that her role as Masha is very demanding: Not only must she convince the patients that she is able to help and heal them, manage a resort, tell their employees what to do, but she has also has a journalist in the back of her neck and must give the character Masha a russian background and accent. Furthermore is she a lover and a friend and she has her own traumatic experience that is one of the worst one can have.
Not many actors and actresses could pull such a role off. Kidman not only pulls it off, she shows so many facets and gives Masha so many layers that you never know what's coming next. Is she crazy, is she traumatized? How far will she go to reach her goal?
One scene in this episode stands out: Nicole Kidman is sitting on the edge of a cliff next to the wonderful and incredible Melissa McCarty and reveals her secret. This scene with Melissa and Nicole gets under your skin.
One very small critical point:
I would love to see Nicole Kidman at her age with a few wrinkles here and there in her face. Its beginning to distract me and that's sad, because she is an exceptional actress.

Fawlty Towers ......

This episode was more Fawlty Towers than anything else. What could go wrong.......
Intelligent people making ludicrous decisions. I just want this series to end now. I'm hoping for some massive breakthrough in the final but at this stage I expect to be disappointed.
Brilliant!

The way the wheels are all detaching in this episode in this episode was fantastic. Regina Hall is phenomenal in this episode! The other two shining stars this episode is Nicole Kidman and Melissa McCarthy revealing deeper into Masha's past. It was extremely amazing seeing the 2 major scenes together giving me chills the entire time. Such an amazing episode and am so excited to see this ending!
