helmer Arnold being blindside by the boys on the Nicole Kidman, Resse Witherspoon and now Meryl Streep-led SoCal sunflare filled series. The claimed creative control snatching is in no small part why the supposedly entirely Arnold directed and June 19 debuting Season 2 looks so very similar to the 2017 premiering Season 1 with Vallée’s trademark aesthetics.

Additionally the Oscar winner given was never given final cut on the second season in her contract. With praise for Arnold’s work form all sides, the finished product, to use a variation on HBO’s words, was handed over the executive producers, which includedirector Vallée, Oscar winners Kidman and Witherspoon as well as Kelly. A fact that might read like a power grab n certain lights but, for better and worse, is actually pretty standard small screen fare for high profile series like, as there are no plans for a Season 3 …yet.
