“The Boys” is back for Season 2 on Amazon Prime Video. And whether you’re a super-skeptic or a Marvel fanatic, its blistering cultural satire is for you.The words “Five heart-tugging monologues,”is also floated, then deleted. The show settles on: “Five desperate confessions from people barely coping with the new normal.”
Shot during this summer’s stay-at-home orders to slow the spread of the coronavirus, “Coastal Elites” is part theater, part video conference. Each character sits alone in a room and speaks directly into the lens, addressing an invisible listener on the other end of the camera as they recount whatever Trumpian misdeed drove them to spill their guts.
Part one, “Lock Her Up,” features Miriam Nessler , a politically engaged widow who ends up in police custody. Sitting at a desk, a plain room behind her, the longtime teacher in the New York City public school system explains that she’s never broken the law before. It’s the state of the country, under Trump, that drove her to the brink. She’s going to bed in a “rage” and waking up in a “panic attack.
She’s lived through plenty and never felt disdain for the folks in the middle of the country. “Maybe we weren’t buddies, but we didn’t despise each other. That’s what he did.” While her vitriol is believable — “I’m Miriam of Arc because I stand for something!” — she often presents like a shallow composite of a feisty Jewish grandma. She loves the theater, hates Trump’s ugly buildings, brags about her lawyer son and lives for the print edition of the New York Times.
Idiots.
How did HBO get away with this? Was it non union?
Well it’s all in the name, coastal elites... not something to be really proud of LA Slimes
China over USA?
🤔 Hollywood wants a bailout. One day someone will wake up and realize people go to movies, concerts, and comedy shows as an escape. People Do Not give a shit about your Elitest views.
The LA Times calling this 'satisfying' is the reason 90% of the country has given up on California - and Hollywood in particular. It is also not 'unifying' which you don't even pretend anymore. While your henchmen firebomb old ladies. 'Peaceful' media.
They know better.
Looking forward to it.
HBO is only producing shows to pander to the blue check mark crowd on Twitter. It's obnoxious even for people who aren't Trump supporters. Don't know how they still have subscribers.
Super solid objective journalism here folks! LOL!
Bizarre skull/bone structure with an elongated occipital bone possibly from the blood line of the ancients. Fascinating Phenotype? LaCreatura

Just here to see people complain about a show they don’t have to watch.
