Review of Genius

Genius (2017– )
Apparently Einstein's life was a British Soap Opera taking place in the 1950's

How convenient! I always thought series like "Holby City", "Emmerdale" and "Weavers Green" were original British soap operas comparable to the American series "The Bold and The Beautiful", but turns out all of those were actually inspired by Albert Einsteins personal life.

When it comes to historically accurate and "educational", Genius is surely one heck of a good series to pick up. It is the best thing since the movie "The Princess Bride (1987)". In that movie, one of the characters is very smart. I will just paste a conversation from it:

Vizzini: I can't compete with you physically, and you're no match for my brains.

Man in Black: You're that smart?

Vizzini: Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates?

Man in Black: Yes.

Vizzini: Morons.

(^Sorry for the bad paragraphing, IMDb doesn't support html.)

As we can agree, Vizzini and Albert Einstein are smart men. Nothing quite proves Einstein's intelligent as his conversations with house wives, the moments when he listens to other "smart" men cry without any reason, and those countless scenes where he "does math" on a blackboard and everyone witnessing this loses all their sh!t, stars jumping and clapping their hands together like they are the audience of American talk-show.

In case my irony doesn't work over the internet: Genius is bloody bollock$ and no one should watch it.
