Not if you grew up with this show
To be fair, I only lasted about 15 minutes. The casting is HORRIBLE. They do not in any way represent Lucy and Desi. ICK. No chemistry, deadbeats, the voices aren't right either, like they didn't even try. What a waste. I didn't hang in long enough to see the Fred Mertz character that some reviewers have said was the best part. I would have enjoyed the documentary part without the other ridiculousness. Some people are so iconic, you cannot represent them. Well, maybe someone could, but these two definitely could not. Terrible. It would have been far better to never show them entirely. Like in the beginning, when you could only see from the waist down. The voices were still way off, but it was much better. You could use your imagination and make it work. It would have been much more interesting. Maybe they weren't paying Kidman enough for her to really try. I don't know but this show is so wrong on every level. Amazon is really turning out some crapola. I think they need to pay attention to Less is More.
