The Ashley Madison Affair (2023)
ABC Studios - Amateurs in Documentary Filmmaking
Hulu should be ashamed for continuing to publish lifeless, banal "original documentaries" created by the novices at ABC studios.
There is nothing compelling about watching hired actors recite anecdotes while playing endless scenes of stock video footage: couches, traffic lights, busses, dogs playing with sprinklers, bugs - yes, in a documentary about hackers breaching data to expose users engaged in extramarital affairs, the producers had the gall to show us a tick climbing a plant. Just call the documentary "We Think Our Viewers are Mindless Sheep".
Someone needs to clean house at ABC Studios, fire the incompetent employees who are creating and approving this uninspired drivel and hire a team who gives a damn about what they do.
Bad Vegan: Fame. Fraud. Fugitives. (2022)
Victim? Please.
Enough of this neo-western philosophy calling everyone a victim while ignoring the fact that as humans, we make choices based on our own self interests.
Sarma is an articulate woman who ostensibly ran one of the most successful restaurants in New York. To deduce any motive other than selfishness as an explanation for her behavior indicates you're an idiot.
The choice she made early on was to completely shirk her business, investors, employees, and family members for a ploy to quick riches and nirvana.
It's painfully evident in the scene where she "forgets" why she let the Operations Manager go - or even more damning, when she wobbles through her explanation (indicting body language and all) for knowingly introducing Anthony under a false name to her longtime friend and investor.
Alas, we are told by the family members that she never married Anthony for love or physical intimacy (thanks for that insight, we were too stupid to notice he was a pot-bellied loser who played Call of Duty all day). It was always for the prospect of him providing financial reprieve from her business debt.
Why is Sarma getting any airtime? She deprived her employees of earned income and the ability to support their families. Throw this loser in jail and move on.
Oh, and you should Boycott Netflix for their time wasting tactic of dragging out stories into "Episodes". We don't need four hours of this. Enough.
