So how was it poorly written again?
at first, I thought Marian was dead, but it turns out she survived.
Do you remember the scene where the Nigerian investor, Uchenna was killed along with his PSDs? that part surely didn't go well. The kill was too easy!
Whoever wrote that script, didn't come up with the best story, trust me. Sean didn't have to die. it was too early, at least not in the first season.

Watch it. But you have to exercise a whole lot of patience through the first 2 seasons.

Sadly, this is so true. I checked it last night, twas bloodly about Kerry Washington and her singular emotional face used in Scandal and this new series.

I don't see how anyone would have an issue with her facial expressions
That's how her face is
Same as in her interviews,
Besides the girl who played young Kerry Washington in little fires everywhere was widely praised for her performance in replicating that singular facial expression that seems to bug the lot of you.

Not true?

A quick check on IMDb will prove this. Just go through the reviews
I went through it, the ones that mattered anyway.
That's so not 90% bruv.
Even if people complained about it, it's just their opinions anyway, nothing more.
She won't stop acting cause of a couple of bad reviews about the things she can't change.
She has hundreds of thousands of fans, has won multiple awards , all with that singular facial expressions.

Maybe the Marian death débâcle, wasn't good.

But that Mosi's part was perfect IMO. He already had the Albania dude and the dude knew he was a dead man. When Mosi started teasing him about his daughter, he lost it. He had nothing to lose again, kukuma fight and die than watch your wife get slaughtered in front of you. I loved it.

Another thing I feel, Sean might not be dead, Elliot is was a soldier and a cop, he could have easily shot Sean in the forehead and drop him, but he was shot through the cheeks, so...(that Sean's death is still open-ended. Anything can happen)

That shit was learned, it can be unlearned. She is an actress FFS. She has been acting for awhile now, this singular facial expression became rampant from Scandal till now. Go on Twitter and just type her name, and you will see comments.

Majority of persons are about the face.

Gangs of London 7/10. Season 2 will be much action packed. Am trusting Elliot to do the right thing and bring down those investors

I feel season two will be too soon to bring down these faceless investors.

Two might be about the war between the dumanis and the Wallace's.

Investor's issue fit reach season 5 sef.

Unless you're talking about surgery bro, there's nothing she can do about that.
Like I said I've seen her interviews, that's the construct of her face.

And as I also said, she has multiple award winning performances with that singular facial expression.

You don't have to like it, but you're in the minority.
Her awards speaks for themselves, that's what matters.

Not the opinions of people who will always find reasons to wail about something.

You obviously have a bias for Kerry, hence your subjectivity.

You said you went through "the once that mattered", how do you determine that?

I didn't say Kerry isn't a great actress, neither did I claim she doesn't have thousands of fans, I personally like her too and follow her on her social media platforms. I have seen quite a number of her movies and perhaps every series she featured in. I also didn't claim she doesn't have awards, stick to the facts

Little Fires everywhere current rates 7.7/10 on IMDB with positives and negative reviews, but 90% of the negative reviews can be linked to Kerry, particularly her facial expression. You couldn't have gone through them and claim otherwise.

The context of the conversation is the series Little Fire everywhere, the negative reviews and what informed most of it, stick to that and don't generalize.

No one is saying she isn't a great actress or hasn't won awards. By the way, I have seen the series and I think she did a fantastic job. She is probably on the few persons with the persona to convey the emotions the script demands. That said, people are entitled to their opinion, he expressions are something that can be worked on, it's art not dogma.

You may want to check out the review of the movie "American Son", you'll see the same feedbacks

Before you wrote this epistle
You should have at least tried to read through the earlier exchanges
The context is Kerry Washington's acting
You saw someone reference scandal , and yet you choose to ignore that

As for people being entitled to their opinions, that ironic coming from you

As for reading reviews, I am very well capable of reviewing a movie on my own, I don't others to make up my mind for me.

A movie can be rated very low by critics, and I would still love it.
Their opinions don't define the series, you shouldn't let it define yours.

I have no bias for Kerry
She isn't even in my top 10 favorite actresses really

And what is up with everyone and reviews, y'all know the people writing those so called reviews are humans too right?

This reviews shouldn't be the criterias for you seeing a movie

It's just opinions though
And everybody has one.

Piece of advice,
Don't just read reviews and adopt the views of the critic cause they're from den of geeks, bbc, comicbook or wherever.

It's okay to disagree,
you're not a puppet.

They are far from done, with the money Finn stole and put in Floriana's name, they can buy back an army to fight for their survival.

Sean is dead na
Elliott shot him in the face in close range who survived that.
Florian has already taken their mother hostage, I don't think they will work together. If you can remember she wanted to kill floriana
