What does Rolling Stone think?

Variety compared it to a Sidney Sheldon novel. 💀

It is the debut of Jennie Kim from Blackpink. I don’t know how big her part is tho. Nonetheless, I am already sick of her.

I feel like the show was built on the premise that people find The Weeknd sexy. I personally do not at all, but I am not the target audience.

Will Levy be nude too?

The Weeknd suffers from bobble head syndrome. Big ass head on a skinny neck with no shoulders. Like he lost a lot of weight and never did any strength training. His music may be sexy, but he sure as hell ain’t.

Look at the two tard stars how could it be any good.?

Never got the appeal and I don't find his music sexy, just sleazy.

Yeah I find him repulsive. He has terrorist face.

I find his music boring and derivative. He’s so mediocre. His best songs are the ones he did with Ariana Grande.

It's beyond obvious that nudity and sex scenes comprise the raison d'etre for many shows (and movies, duh), with half-arsed storylines written around them: "GoT"; "Euphoria"; "The Idol"; etc. And now Helen Mirren lowers herself to re-visit her turn in the execrable "Caligula."

LilyRose probably thinks she's above the Yachting Class, but she isn't.

I could spot this a mile away from Euphoria. Levinson offers nothing but expensive, pretty cinematography which masks a half-baked storywriting. And he writes female characters like a teenage boy looking to get off. I'm glad he's finally being called out for it.

Helen Mirren is going full titties out for the 2023 remake?!

I also hate how the Weeknd was a pettly little bitch about the Rolling Stone when all they did was report on stories from THEIR OWN CREW being upset about Levinson ruining the project. (His "@RollingStone Did we do something to offend you??" tweet.)

Why don't you give a shit about your writers and staff instead of play-acting an "auteur," Abel. You're clearly not cut out for it.
