  • I don’t get it. Is this some sort of weird propaganda to make billionaires look funny and nice? Aren’t their so-called “charitable foundations” mostly tax shelters? Between The Morning Show and this it seems like Apple+ can be at bit out of touch with how they portray the wealthy. I’ll take the despicable rich from Succession, please.

  • Bland looking vanity streaming content by a big name with a short vague title in awful white font & blends in with everything else leaves no impression whatsoever throw it on the pile I guess.

  • It looks nice because of production values, but I don’t really see Maya Rudolph playing to her strengths, here.

    A spoiled wife who suddenly has to show people that she is not spoiled is something Jane Krakowski could easily do. But I’d say this role is something right up Tina Fey’s alley, especially if the show has a political or social commentary edge to it

    Like Mackenzie Scott, if she suddenly found herself to be among the top billionaires in the world, and she decides to behave differently than every other male billionaire, and she start’s rocking the boat and changing things and it causes other rich billionaires and people in power to get upset……..that would be an interesting premise for a show.

  • Making a tv show about ultra wealthy people in this political and economic climate? Maybe it will help give a visual representation of what people are fed up with. I’m going to reserve judgement until I actually see the show. Maya Rudolph is great and so is Adam Scott. Together it should make for a decent comedy at the very least.

    I totally expect downvotes for the first bit of what I said. That’s fine, go right ahead. I probably deserve it.
