Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Please understand this review is not coming from some holy roller. I would describe myself as a nihilistic-leaning atheist. I thought Tetsuo was worth of watching again and I liked Lars Von Trier's Breaking the Waves. I don't mind a Tarantino film and liked Dexter. So understanding that I'm from the rather narrow demographic that MIGHT have liked this season, I can only say it is a vile dumpster fire. Let me describe the KIND of dumpster fire Goliath Season 2 is. Fill a dumpster with dog turds from the surrounding parks, dead hookers, and used heroin needles. Cover in gasoline and ignite. It's interesting to note that they HAD a show-runner (Clyde Philips) who knew how to make their chosen insane content work. If anyone could make this work it would be someone who ran Dexter. But they fired him and re-shot the 4 first episodes he had completed. I cannot possibly imagine those 4 deleted episodes being worse than what I saw. To start with, Season 2 has just incredibly bad writing. Even the PREMISE of the season fell down. WHAT exactly is going to be catastrophic for the bad guys if a particular murder of low-level criminals in a bad neighborhood gets chalked up as an unsolved crime? What is so important about making one PARTICULAR cello player go to jail when they already considered framing him a huge mistake, when they still had the murder weapon, which they could have planted on ANY lowlife thug with a known criminal record in the course of their workday? Or for instance, the writers appear to be totally incapable of creating a believable romance between McBride and the mayoral candidate. We laughed at every scene with it. Generally things just either happened formulaically or didn't make sense. The characters we are supposed to sympathize aren't fleshed out into real people and we don't care about them. The daughter was completely miscast. Her acting and appearance simply do not work. Okay, having explained that it isn't JUST the objectionable content - it really is a hack job this season - let's move on to the other stuff. Torture porn. Amputee porn. Masturbation, trannies, weirdly lingering full frontal nude homoeroticism. From what reviewers who made it farther into the series are saying, kiddie porn and incest? Go ahead and make your crazy show, Amazon, that's FINE. What you probably DON'T want to do is market this show all over every medium like gangbusters, over PG and G rated content as your flagship show. You probably DON'T want to market it as a somewhat gritty general audience lawyer show. (That's Better Call Saul, by the way) What could you POSSIBLY have been thinking? What was the conversation at that meeting like? Did someone say "Season 2 will be all about Latex Fetish." and someone yelled "NO! That still appeals to TOO WIDE a demographic! We need a fetish with a much smaller fan base, how about amputee porn?" How do you not understand that tricking customers into watching something they definitely will not like is bad marketing, bad business practice? THIS is seriously your flagship show???
