Pam & Tommy (2022)
7/10
Not a bad mini-series
12 March 2022
I'm glad I gave Pam & Tommy a go. Lily James and Sebastian Stan hit their performances out of the park, they look and sound like the real Tommy and Pamela. Seth Rogen is a great addition as well. This series gave an interesting look into the sad, humorous and dramatic marriage of two celebrities. I was very young during these actual events so enjoyed seeing a dramatization of these events much later. Sad how a private tape could adversely affect both their lives, Pam wanted to be a real actress and not an object. Tommy came across as a buffoon whose heyday was behind him, washed out rich Rockstar.

Some of my few criticisms would be this series felt a bit long, you could have shrunk it a bit. Also it had a strong start with the first episode by showing a different point of view from Rand's life. This added intrigue and made it different. They should shown different angles more, tell us something we couldn't find out from Wikipedia or YouTube easily. The message of this series was great as it showed being a decent human being is important. No matter if you're poor or rich, manners and respect count. Tommy and Pam might have not lasted anyway. But because Tommy behaved badly with his carpenter it led to all kinds of bad karma.
