Frasier (2023)
It gets 4 Stars for Kelsey Grammar
The first two episodes were on regular tv hopefully to get people intererested before jumping onto a Paramount+ subscription to watch more, which I did last night and am cancelling today. I'm happy to pay $9.99 a month if a show is good, this isn't.
The main reasons this show sucks are 2 characters - the Dean and David. Both characters are annoying. I can understand why Daphne and Niles are miles away from David. I've never seen a more useless and stupid character in my life. Both of these characters are way over the top.
It's bascially a continuation of the old Frasier with Freddie filling in for Martin with the working man vs snob dynamic and sadly it doesn't work this time around.
Harry & Meghan (2022)
Excellent Series - Getting Their Story Out
I enjoyed this and I'm glad they have an opportunity to get their side of the story out.
One of the things that struck me the most was the fact that Meghan's niece spoke in the program, and for me that dammed Samantha Markle in her self-appointed victim role.
Are Meghan and Harry doing some exaggeration? Probably. They say there are three sides to every story and in this case, it's H&M's, the Institution's and the Truth. But I think there was more that was genuine than not. The treatment of Princess Diana pretty much confirms what H&M are saying. And it's going to be hard for the Royals to refute that.
Seeing the video of the paparazzi in boats in the water in B. C. was chilling and anyone reasonable in that situation without proper security would be scared.
As far as the critics commenting on all the home videos of every aspect of their lives, what do they expect. Of course H&M are going to document everything. First, they are public figures and secondly, they needed the record to get their side of the story out there.
And I think Diana would have supported both of them all the way. We have no way of knowing how her life would have turned out - or how Harry and William's lives would have been if they hadn't lost their mother.
Netflix did a great job on this production. And I hope that H&M can have a happy life.
Country Comfort (2021)
The Nanny Meets The Partridge Family
First thought, rehash of The Nanny. Then the kid who acts like a smarmy manager, second thought, Danny Partridge. I love Katherine McPhee but her character is like if Dolly Parton and Minnie Mouse had a baby. I love her singing voice, but couldn't she have learned a few guitar chords so it at least looked as if she was playing the damn thing? I gave it until the Lee-an Rimes episode before calling it quits. This show is definitely in the "life is too short" category. I think I'll go back an re-watch The Nanny. Come on, Netflix, you can do better.
