Rooster

has a great cast who play messy characters and an easy breezy storyline that keeps you interested

It's rare yet inevitable, but HBO does actually release some slop sometimes. I don't understand what the story is here, nor do I understand why this is considered one. I was waiting for something to pull me in, but by episode 5, it started feeling more like a chore to complete. Great cast, decent soundtrack, boring characters, soppy emotional cues, and lazy comedy. I know the American education system is mostly just a bunch of theatrics, but somehow, this managed to make it feel both under- and over-exaggerated.

Loved

A cozy, easy watch. Nothing you haven’t seen before, but mildly interesting enough to watch. It wasn’t meh, but like feels a bit too forward. I need a “it’ll do” option.
