Big Little Lies (HBO) TV Show • Page 10

The entire season sucked

 

I loved the first two and had such high hopes after that, but I don’t think it did enough to justify being made as a whole. I would pay good money to see it released with Andrea Arnold’s vision intact.

It was worth a watch for Meryl being a straight up villain and Renata’s memeworthy outbursts, but I am let down that this is the end now.

 

I really liked it for what it’s worth, though I want more of these characters. This season flew by. Hope it gets renewed and they don’t repeat the same issues (that article about the post-production process really was enlightening).

 

let it end please

 

Yeah I’m over wanting anything else now. The only way I would even think of watching another season is if they came out and said flat out that it would have no story and no mystery and no conflict and just be the women sitting around a campfire or beach picnic for seven hours.

 

Finale was fine, but like the whole season it was just average and totally didn’t need to exist save for Meryl and Laura doing their thing.

 

I thought Nicole Kidman did a stellar job this season too.

 

the only acceptable new seasons would be just Renata or just Abigail and Chloe in like a Zombieland scenario

or just Adam Scott and Shailene hopefully getting more gigs because of this I'd be fine with, though it was weird how hot he was in this

but yeah definitely overall acting and memes were great but I'm glad Sharp Objects and Fosse/Verdon are just gonna be one season as great as they are, sometimes that's enough, and I would have been okay if this was only one season

 

Season one was a 10, this was a 7.5ish. Would totally watch a 3rd.

 

Ya S2 was underwhelming overall, but it was still enjoyable because of the characters and cast.

 

Would watch endless hours of Laura Dern destroying trains but yeah overall this season didn’t need to exist.

 

I did enjoy this

 

We just watched the finale, and while i thought the courtroom scenes were great, now that the season is over, i enjoyed it as entertaining television, but now feel it completely unnecessary as a whole. I also just wasnt a fan of how many times in one episode they can try to “trick” you into thinking somethings gonna happen that isnt. Also seemed like a lame way to end off.

Not expecting/wanting a S3.

 

Unless they've said otherwise since, earlier this year Marti Noxon said that a second season of Sharp Objects could potentially happen.

 

I just got around to watching the finale and did not like it all. The entire second season just wasn't on the same level as the first. I mean just a few moments before they all walk into the police station to turn themselves in, Celeste was just saying how the lie was their friendship.

Laura Dern was fucking hilarious the entire show though.

 

the more i think about this whole season the more i dislike it

 

Article reads like damage control to me. I may have liked it but there were definitely issues with Season 2, particularly with its editing, and after reading the indiewire piece a few weeks ago, those issues were amplified. If there ends up being another season, i think the best thing they can do is work from the mistakes of this one, rather than denying them. I also think bringing in the actual book’s author would help the writing team keep the tone consistent with the original story.

 

So season 2 just exists in an alternate universe where self defence doesn’t exist huh

 

That was the sharpest dip in quality between consecutive seasons of a show I’ve ever experienced

 

I’d give that honor to True Detective.

But anyway I finally watched season 2 and generally agree. The first season was perfect, the second...decidedly less so. The first few episodes were okay, but the back half was rough.

 

None of this season has stuck with me in the slightest, except for maybe Meryl screaming at the dinner table.

 

Shailene Woodley’s decision to wear bangs will certainly stick with me.

 

I just finished watching yesterday, too! I enjoyed the beginning of the season, but the rest did fall flat. In the Season 2 finale, I feel like this rushed trying to bring some other characters storylines together besides Celeste (because hers was basically all of Season 2).
