*Updated Ranking the Seasons of Big Brother

     Are you a big fan of Big Brother? Big Brother is one of my absolute favorite television shows of all time. I love the strategy and mostly the cast. Though Big Brother has seen some unbearable seasons (recently for the most part), many of the seasons have been amazing. So, what are my opinions on every season? Let's get to them by ranking the 21 main seasons (minus Big Brother 1, Big Brother: Over the Top, and Celebrity Big Brother 1 & 2) from worst to best. Spoilers ahead!!!

20. Big Brother 19: Winner- Josh Martinez 

     Honestly I don't want to even waste my breath over this season. If you have seen this season and actually liked it, I question you as a fan of the show. We had to watch a game of follow the leader all season which was just absolutely awful. The only good thing about this season was seeing Paul lose...again (deservingly) for being an ass the whole season even after production gave him 6,500 advantages. This season was so bad that many former Big Brother players quit watching because of it. I can't even stomach talking about it anymore, so onto the next one. 

19. Big Brother 16: Winner- Derrick Levasseur

     When I think of Big Brother 16, I think of famewhores. Frankie. Caleb. Zach. The list goes on and on. We had people more concerned about getting Instagram followers than playing for $500,000. Week after week it was Derrick getting his way without any opposition. I mean, good for him, but it made for such boring television. The only person I enjoyed in this season was Donny and that's because he actually had a brain and wanted to target Derrick. Then, we have brainless Cody take Derrick to the end instead of Victoria, the lamp of the season. This proved that Cody was there to make friends rather than win the game to where I will say that this is the worst move in the history of the show. Please stay home if that is what you plan to do. Skip this season and the number 19 slot as well.

18. Big Brother 9: Winner- Adam Jasinski

     This season and Big Brother 15 are known as the "forgotten seasons". This season was known as "The season of love". It aired in the wintertime due to the financial crisis in the U.S. at the time. Honestly, I don't know anyone that has watched this season and actually liked it. I think you'll only like this season if you're addicted to porn. Yeah...that's the season in a nutshell. Although this season was not good, the people did play the game, maybe not well, but hey at least they were playing unlike BB19 and BB16. Also, Adam is a very underrated winner who played an excellent under the radar game, and he also played up the "stupid guy" role which benefitted him perfectly. I would take a hard pass at watching this season again, though.

17. Big Brother 18: Winner- Nicole Franzel

     Ugh...another not so hot season. This season saw the return of 4 bizarre choices of returnees that consisted of Nicole, James, Frank, and Da'Vonne. Why did they choose these four? I have no idea. The cast of new people was so lame. You had Zakiyah, who did nothing the whole game, Michelle who cried every episode and Paulie who has to be the biggest douche to ever play the game (maybe besides Paul). I did not like the care package and team twist. It was only to protect the returnees. I did; however, love the downfall of Paulie. That has to be one of the best weeks in BB history. That moment probably saves this season from being lower to be honest. When I watched the season, I did not feel Nicole deserved to win. I still don't, but jury management is part of the game and because of that, Paul lost for the first time. If only he would have won, then we wouldn't have been stuck with the crapfest that was BB19. People like to praise Nicole's game, but that girl had no clue where her position in the game was half the time, so I cannot give her full credit for playing a decent game. I would watch this season if only if you have watched the rest of the seasons that are better than this one.

16. Big Brother 13: Winner- Rachel Reilly

     Like BB18, this season saw the return of three pairs of veterans that consisted of Dick and Daniele, Brendon and Rachel, and Jeff and Jordan. This season starts off promising, but falls a bit flat when Dick is forced to leave the game after receiving news that he had contacted HIV. The production influence this season was awful. Rachel was given so many advantages to further her game that her win almost feels too tainted in a way. Despite all the flaws this season has, it has the single best double eviction in the show's history. Both the leaders of the two opposing alliances are wiped out in a matter of minutes, and it was so glorious to watch. Like I said with Rachel's win already, it was a very flawed game that she played and the only reason she won the season is because her fiancé bribed another jury member to vote for her. I do like Rachel in real life, though. I would recommend this season for those who like drama.

15. *Big Brother 21: Winner- Jackson Michie

     Here it is. Our most recent season of Big Brother. After a terrible jury phase which included micro aggressive behavior, misogyny, and unlikable people, we had an interesting jury phase. I did not say it was a good jury phase, but it was interesting. While this season had many terrible features such as botched casting, terrible game moves, and production interference on a whole other level, it had funny moments including Nicole's diary rooms, Jessica falling off the wall, and Taco Tuesday. However, this cast was so unlikable. From people like Jackson, Jack, Nick, Christie, Bella, Cliff, Jessica, etc. There was no one to root for other than Nicole, who is up there with one of the most popular BB players ever. Jackson (No. Not Michie) played a good game, winning competitions and lying when he needed to in order to get to the end, but he was so unlikable. The product this season gave us is everything wrong with modern BB: casting, twists, the production company, etc. I don't see this season moving down, but I can see it moving up either.

     

14. Big Brother 11: Winner- Jordan Lloyd

     I consider this season to be the very first season where production became a player in the game, which just should not happen. The alliance America hated was in power week after week and was wiping out the alliance that America loved. America's favorite, Jeff, won a special power that could change the course of the game. Jeff was designed to win by production, but he fumbled at the 1 yard line and his showmance slipped on a banana peel and ended up winning the game. That is the season in a nutshell. Despite the season not being the best, I believe it had the last great cast for a while (until BB20 came around). Also, the fights are probably some of the best fights in reality television history. Jordan is an awful winner. She had no real strategy and rode on Jeff's coattails the whole game. She won because she was next to someone who EVERYONE hated. Like BB13, watch this season if you like drama.

13. Big Brother 15: Winner- Andy Herren

     This season has been dubbed the "racist and homophobic season" by fans and critics alike. At least 75% of the cast was caught saying racist and bigoted remarks, which is just not a good thing. The twist this season saw so many potentially decent players go home pre-jury just so BB13 winner Rachel's sister, Elissa could go further in the game. This season also gave us the worst final 3 in the history of the show with Andy, GinaMarie, and Spencer- the three most WTF players to ever make it to the end. While I do think Andy played a decent game, I think people tend to overpraise his floater game. Maybe it's just because I don't like Andy in real life. This season did have many gameplayers and fights, though. We had the villainous Amanda, who I desperately think we need to see again. The fact that that girl never won any competitions and still managed to manipulate her way into getting her targets out, speaks volumes to her as a player. I think this season would have been higher up if there had not been so much racism and homophobia in it. Watch this season, so you can see not what to say on National TV.

12. Big Brother 12: Winner- Hayden Moss

     BB12 is perhaps the most average season of Big Brother. It's not great, but it's not terrible either. The season was ran by the most dominant alliance to ever play the game (in my opinion), The Brigade. Three out of its four members made it to the final 3, and the only reason why the fourth did not make it to the end is because the other three cut him. They outplayed everyone, which honestly made for a pretty boring season if you ask me. The season; however, had memorable characters in Brendon, Rachel, and Britney. Hayden was a great winner. He was great socially, strategically, and competitively. If you want a season that is not too complicated to understand, I would recommend this one.

11. Big Brother 5: Winner- Drew Daniel

     I loved this season's twist. It was Project DNA where twins would switch in and out of the house. (This later happened in BB17, but BB5's twin twist was far superior). Also, an estranged brother and sister played the game together. I would say that the twist carries the season. Like BB12, the season was just average. There were boring weeks, but decent weeks at the same time. Also, the brother evicted his sister from the house, and the winner of the season evicted his showmance. It was so cutthroat, and I lived for those blindsides! Scott and Jase were two jackasses, but they go out fairly quick, which in a way makes the season halt to a slow stop. Drew is a decent winner who knew when to be out in the open and fly under the radar when he needed to. I still think Diane was the best player that season, who managed to plant seeds between alliances, so she was always in the middle. I would watch this season if you want to see a great twist.

10. Big Brother 4: Winner- Jun Song

     Big Brother 4 brought us one of the best twists of the show's history: bringing ex -boyfriends and girlfriends into the house to compete against each other. That being said, the cast was pretty dull aside from Jun, Alison, and Erika, but they all played the game, so I can't complain that much. Jun is one of the most underrated winners the show has ever seen. She pioneered the floating strategy, the shifting of alliances based on where the power was held. Her Final 2 competitor, Alison, also played an amazing game. She lied and told people what they wanted to hear to get her way. This is probably the most evenly matched Final 2. I would love to see Jun come back for another season, but I don't see that happening since her and Julie Chen DESPISE each other. Do not skip this season!

9. Big Brother 17: Winner- Steve Moses

     Big Brother 17 was a refreshing season since we came out of two of the worst seasons ever. This season holds a special place in my heart because it was the first season I watched when it aired. Seeing Vanessa play like a crazy person week after week was so tiring to watch, but I respected her for it. This season probably would have been better if she had won. The twist this season ended after a couple of weeks, which made for a cutthroat season full of backstabs and betrayal. The best part of this season was Vanessa evicting Austin without any shoes on! It was damn hilarious! The Final 2 of Steve and Liz made for a disappointing Final 2. People love to overrate Steve's game, but was he really that good? I believe if he were so good he would have gotten rid of Vanessa earlier. This is a great modern season to watch! I would not skip it!

8. Big Brother 14: Winner- Ian Terry

     This season saw the return of the Janelle, Dan, "Boogie", and Britney as coaches. I really liked the concept of the twist; however, that was destroyed because they were allowed into the game as players a month into the game. I hated that. I really did like this season though. We got to see Dan Gheesling make his second coming at the game. Dan's funeral was brilliant and is one of the best moves of the show's history. You might be wondering why I ranked this season so low, and it's really only because the cast of newbies were some of the worst casting decisions I have ever seen. Ashley. Shane. Joe. Jenn. Danielle. The list goes on. Ian is a fine winner. I would have preferred Dan, but once again jury management is part of the game. This is a season where fans of the show will point out to you, so don't miss this one!

7. Big Brother 20: Winner- Kaycee Clark

     After a series of shitty seasons with shitty winners, this season gave life to a franchise I thought was dead. The season saw the battle between the Hive and Level 6. I think Level 6 is one of the best alliances of the show's history. They had complete trust in each other, and they outplayed the other side week after week with an array of blindsides, defeats, and betrayal. We had a great cast of interesting characters in Brett, Rockstar, Haleigh, Faysal, etc. I also believe that the Final 3 was the best Final 3 since BB3 back in 2002! All of them had an argument to win the game. The only negative about this season was that the Hive got picked off week after week, which made for a dull three weeks, but the season once again picked right back up. While I think Tyler played a better game than Kaycee, I believe Kaycee to be a great winner and maybe the best social player of all time. Yes, I said it. This season brought a breath of fresh air into the BB community, so you NEED to watch this season! "It's real cute"-Rockstar

6. Big Brother 2: Winner- Will Kirby

    The very first real season of the show, BB2 brought to us a game we had never seen before. The game was a social experiment at its best. The season saw the formation of the infamous "Chilltown" alliance as well as the first time the houseguests were informed of something that happened on the outside world. Monica, who finished third, lost her cousin in 9/11. This scene is probably the most raw scene in the show's history. It really showed that these were real people, playing a game for $500,000. Everyone came to play this season. It was so enjoyable to watch after the mess that Season 1 was. Runner-up Nicole played a great cutthroat game, but she was no match for Dr. Will Kirby. Will played puppet master the whole season, lying about his loyalties and votes which got him to the Final 2 in one of if not the best winning games the show has ever seen. Though the season is VERY outdated, you should still watch it. It was the birth of an amazing show!

5. Big Brother 10: Winner- Dan Gheesling

     Big Brother 10 is an iconic season. For the first time we had a houseguest over 70 play the game, and we had a cast of people that came to play. This season is also known as the season of "back to basics" meaning there were no twists implemented into the game (except for America's player during Week 4). The season saw many memorable fights including "Keesha's birthday". We also had Renny, the older woman who was not afraid to speak her mind. Dan Gheesling made his debut as the charming Catholic school teacher, who would immediately stab you in the back in one of the best games the show has ever seen. Do not skip BB10. It was the last great season of the show until BB20 aired!

4. Big Brother 8: Winner- Dick Donato

     I love this season so much. Me and my siblings always quote it around the house. The season saw three sets of enemies enter the game including an estranged father and daughter. The twist this season was America's player where a houseguest named Eric had to vote out the person America wanted out, which caused so much chaos and fights in the house. We had so many great moments including Amber's modeling dream, Amber's crying montage, and Dick tormenting the houseguests to no end! Dick and his daughter, Daniele both made it to the final 2 after Dick endured an 8 hour HOH competition. Dick is a very controversial winner, who many people say was protected by America, but there was so much diary room manipulation that season, I don't think anyone's games were unaffected. I think Dick and Daniele both played great games, and I believe that they both deserved to win. I also follow Dick on Twitter because he is so hilarious and so relatable! You have to watch Big Brother 8 considering it's part of the "Golden Age" of the show!

3. Big Brother 6: Winner- Maggie Ausburn

     We're coming down to my top 3 favorite seasons, and BB6 will start them off. BB6 saw the house split in half between the likable Sovereign Six Alliance and the despised Friendship Alliance. Week after week the power shifted back and forth between the sides knocking off a player from each until only a few on each side remained. The season saw the introduction of Janelle, the original competition threat, who was adored by America. Memorable moments included a fourteen hour endurance competition where Jennifer betrayed the trust of the other side and evicted their leader, Janelle winning HOH and evicting Jennifer, and the realization that everyone in the house had a secret partner. Maggie is such an amazing winner, who got the opposing alliance to nominate their own numbers. She also was the leader of her alliance, where she shielded herself with them in order not to be targeted. Even though I wanted Janelle to take the season, I was so happy to see Maggie beat Ivette, who is one of my least favorite houseguests ever. This season is almost near perfect, so this is a season you cannot skip.

2. Big Brother 7 All-Stars: Winner- Mike "Boogie" Malin

     Unlike Survivor: All Stars, BB7 is simply amazing. The season saw the return of fourteen of the "best" BB players ever battle it out for another chance to win. The players literally started playing the second they walked in the house (literally the second they walked in). The season saw the return of most of the Sovereign Six alliance from BB6, Danielle Reyes from BB3, and Chilltown from BB2, who manipulated their way into the Final 4 together. Janelle broke the record with most competition wins in a season with nine! Dr. Will, who had already won, outplayed everyone in the season without even sweating, even though he was caught in lying in the Final 4 and was evicted because of it. Boogie is a pretty good winner. He rode coattails when he needed to, and he took leadership when he needed to, but Will really did run the entire season. If you want to see a season with incredible and fast gameplay, then this is the season for you!

1. Big Brother 3: Winner- Lisa Donohue

     This is hands down my favorite season of Big Brother. This is when gameplay really took off and started the game we all know and love. I wish BB had an Emmy category because I would have nominated this season. I consider this season to be the season of egos. Amy wanted to be the southern belle. Josh wanted to be the funny guy of the season. Gerry wanted to be the self-righteous old man of the season and Marcellas wanted to be the "star" of the season. Though none of them make it to the end and win, they get their "fame" at the end of the season. A great moment in the season was Marcellas not using the veto on himself and as a result, he was immediately evicted in what is considered one of the worst moves in the show's history. Danielle and Jason are the best duo to ever play the game. What they did was genius. They each took a side of the house and compared notes with each other in order to keep the target off of their backs. Both of them made it to the Final 3 never once touching the block. The fact that no one else has never emulated this strategy baffles me. This season (in my opinion) has the strongest Final 3 in the history of the show with each of the three playing the best games of the season. Now I do believe Danielle should have won this season, but Lisa also played an amazing game. She coasted when she had to, she made friends with everyone, and she made important moves such as not voting back in her showmance since it would put a target on her back. After this season, the jury was cut down significantly, and they were sequestered without any diary room footage to base their jury votes off of. This season is pure excellence; it's storytelling at its best, and it influenced many decisions in the show's future. 10/10 in my book.

Thank you for reading my season rankings of Big Brother. Let me know what your favorite season of the show is and why, but please don't say BB19! Onto Big Brother 22 next summer! 

American Horror Story: 1984 Premiere Review

   
     Well. Um...That was definitely...an episode of American Horror Story. That's really the only positive thing I can say about the premiere of American Horror Story: 1984. This is the first season to not feature Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters, and it was quite noticeable. When Jessica Lange left, it was a huge blow to the show, but I knew the show would go on somehow. After these other two left, I don't know if I can say that anymore. This whole premiere was just a mess. Maybe it's because I was so excited coming into this season since we are finally going back in time. I think it's the first season that is primarily set in a past decade since Freak Show. That was season four! It's a shame that this premiere did not meet my expectations in the slightest.

     The opening scene was probably the best part in the whole episode...perhaps maybe the only good part. It starts off with a bang, and the camera work is excellent during these opening murders. I really was feeling like this looked promising, but it all went down hill from there. The opening names when the teens are working out was so corny and unnecessary. I don't know what it is about the modern AHS seasons where they have to split the comedy and horror 50/50. Did Asylum have campy moments? Yes, but they were far and between, which makes Asylum my favorite season. The "funny" moments and corny jokes need to be gone yesterday. I really just get distracted and end up rolling my eyes when they're shoved down my throats.

     The characters presented to us were so...to put it modestly: uninspiring. I really can't think of one character so far that I like. Billie Lourd as Montana has a decent performance, but her character sucks. It really does. After a breathtaking performance as Michael Langdon, Cody Fern plays someone so stereotypical and unlikable that is so inferior to his character last season. Gus Kenworthy was there. I still don't know why. Maybe he'll be the breakout star this season, but his personality so far is...yikes. Angelica Ross from Pose is on this season which I was ecstatic about because I really adored her on that show. I thought I would be rooting for her the second she got on my screen, but it was the complete opposite. She seems to be a character that is there for right now, so I hope she can get a story arc or some personality down the road this season. There seems to be no character development from any of these characters all in all so far because you know "corny jokes." I really hope that we see some growth and great acting from these people so they can fill in these astounding actors that have left us recently.

     It seems like Richard Ramirez will be a side plot this season with Brooke (Emma Roberts), which by the way, I think Emma Roberts should stick with her bitchy roles. She does them ten times better than these serious roles she is given. I like how AHS sprinkles in a dash of real-life to their plots; I just hope this storyline isn't filler, and it can go somewhere because these murders are very fascinating even to this day.

     A character I actually did not mind was Margaret (Leslie Grossman). Was she excellent? Pfft. Not in the slightest. Again, there is some camp in her because Ryan Murphy loves to give campy roles to Leslie Grossman. I just hope she can move out of her comfort zone this season and really give a humanized role of her character. Her surviving the Camp Redwood massacre in 1970, is actually an interesting storyline that has the potential to push the narrative of this season ahead. I do know that I am going to get tired of her beliefs of Jesus and always praying to him. That can go.

     The Mr. Jingles killer plot is fun, but I want it to be more sinister and more dark and twisted than what we saw tonight. The cutting off of his victims ears is fascinating, but I want more (I know that sounds f-ed up, but this is American Horror Story. There have been worse). I hope this storyline continues for the rest of the season because it could be fun to watch what happens to these unlikable counselors. I hope we get a backstory on him rather than the counselors just telling us what happened around a campfire (which by the way, the acting in that scene was horrid). John Carroll Lynch is a great actor, and I hope his talents are not wasted this season since he only joins the AHS universe ever so often.

                             

     Overall, guys this was not the best start for an American Horror Story season. Like I said, I think the producers have to tone down the camp and focus on the psychological horror that the show was so successful with in its first couple of seasons. It really doesn't even feel like the same show anymore. I pray that this season finds its purpose and runs with it because if it doesn't, it's gonna be a long and pointless season. The premiere itself will receive a 4/10 for me, the lowest rated score I have given since I started my blog last year. It needs to pick up, and it needs to get better as soon as possible.

Thank you for reading my AHS: 1984 premiere review. More blogs will be coming soon! Have a great rest of your day!

The Deuce Season 3 Premiere Review

From left to right: Alston, Candy, Vincent, Abby, Paul, and Lori

     

     To be totally honest, I had no idea that The Deuce was premiering tonight. I had an idea that it was premiering in September, but maybe it's because all of the other shows I watch start in late September, so I just assumed it did , too, but I'm really pumped that this show is back on. I finished watching the first two seasons about a month ago, and it's definitely a hidden gem of a show with great characters and interesting plotlines. I wrote down notes for tonight's episode because this show has so many characters and storylines in it, which is crazy because a lot of the characters' storylines ended last season and in season one. I really enjoyed this episode, and I loved how we got a time jump to the 80s. I'm going to write my initial thoughts of the episode and what the characters have been up to.

     Let's start with Vincent and Abby. Honestly, who cares about them? I always felt they were the weakest characters in the story. I'll give it to Abby for fixing her hair after that bird nest disaster she had in '77. It looks like the two broke up, but still have feelings for each other. Vincent walks her home in this episode since the 80s have brought about a more dangerous city with muggings and beatings, but as he and Abby point out, the real estate is turning for the better with higher property prices and new apartment buildings being built, but Vincent doesn't think the Deuce will be affected. It shall be interesting to see if that affects their relationship, but still I think they are a snooze, especially Abby.

     I was shocked to see Lori come back this season since she got a very satisfying ending in the season two finale; however, her story really is far from over, now. She is introduced as getting out of rehab for the fifth time, which makes total sense. She was always doing blow last season at least once every episode, so I knew that that could be her storyline in the future if she came. At the end of the episode, she relapses in a very disturbing manner where she is literally shoving cocaine up her nose and down her throat. It's very upsetting to watch something so relevant in society be shown like that, but it just shows how far gone she is. She also doesn't seem to be happy to still be in the porn business, either. Her boyfriend/husband is pushing her to stay, but she wants to "rest." It's very obvious that she is getting flashbacks of C.C. controlling her and not giving her breaks from prostituting. I really do think Lori is going to die this season. I can just see her overdosing or maybe even her boyfriend/husband getting violent with her and killing her. Her story would come full circle if that happened, so it makes total sense.

     Paul's storyline was very obvious especially since it is now the 80s. It's the peak of the AIDS epidemic where the fatal disease is prominent in the gay community. Paul is advocating for safer sex on the streets. His boyfriend is revealed to have legions on his face. Like Lori's cocaine addiction, it's very disturbing to watch this time period where the gay community was really being wiped out from that horrible disease, and no one really cared except their own people. The guy on the street that Paul talks to clearly has it, and he's outcasted. We see him again in the bar not celebrating the new year because to him, it isn't that exciting knowing that he is most likely not going to survive the disease. It was very sad to watch since this happened to the LGBT community everywhere. We'll see how Paul deals with this disease within his community. I think he will catch it, or he may have already contracted it. Bobby also is worried that he may have AIDS, but he thinks it is airborne from the gay community. I'm glad the show touched on this issue that just because you were straight didn't mean you weren't protected from the disease. Bobby is such a sleazebag that he is "advised" to stop cheating on his wife, so he won't catch the disease, but he cannot help it. Shocker. I think his test results are going to come back positive. The dynamics of his friends and coworkers should be interesting if it is revealed he is positive since they probably have the stigma that only gay men can have it.

     Frankie now has a family, and he is directing porn with Irene. He also has this business arrangement with Tommy to where Tommy doesn't want Rudy to know that he is going behind his back. I'm not sure where this storyline is headed, but I think Frankie and Tommy are not going to come out alive from this. Rudy is part of the mob for God's sake; he isn't messing around. Frankie was another character I couldn't care about. He really has had no character development other than tricking people into giving him money, so whatever.

     Detective Alston teams up with Herc from The Wire (My Wire people noticed him immediately). They are trying to stop the gang violence on the street. They combine their forces and catch two muggers at the subway in a brilliant set-up. I mean, I would have never guessed all those people were cops. I'm actually interested in what Alston will do this season. He's really the only character that hasn't had any sort of resolution to his arc. I think he'll most likely expose the corruption of the police towards the end of the season. He always seemed like a good guy, so I hope everything works out for him at the end.

     Now. Let's get to one of my top five favorite tv characters of all time, Candy/Eileen. I just love how good she is in the show. She is powerful, relatable, and just likable. Maggie Gyllenhaal needs an Emmy nomination for this performance. Candy seems to be in a rut with her porn directing. New technology is changing the pornography industry, and Candy doesn't seem to be understanding why. She sees a newer porn movie where the women are treated like fools; she always portrays the men and women as equals, sometimes even having the women be the dominant characters in her films. Harvey wants her to change with the times, but she feels like she isn't sticking true with her vision. A good thing that went on over the years, though was that it seems like she somewhat made up with her family since they locked her out of her home in the 70s for appearing on a talk show to talk about the porn industry, where her son was beat up because of it. That seems to be the best of the news for her, though because her mother is dying and she hasn't talked to her son, Adam, in a while, but she doesn't seem to want to talk about him. I'm really looking forward to seeing how she goes about handling her estranged relationship with her son. It seems like her luck may turn with her directing visions since she meets the guy at the bar, and it seems he wants to help her out. I am praying that she survives this show because she really is the heart and soul of it. Go Candy!

     So, yeah, that about wraps things up. I know there are other character storylines floating around, but to me they are either not interesting or just not major enough right now, but that could change. I am happy this show got a third and final season because it deserves a proper ending. If you haven't seen this show, go watch it! It is much more than a dirty-sounding, pornographic show. It has depth and characters you will love and love to hate. There also are not that many episodes to catch up with, so it is a short watch! I guarantee you'll enjoy it!

Thank you for reading my review of The Deuce premiere! I will be writing more reviews in the upcoming weeks once my shows come back on, so be on the lookout!
