I'm one episode in and switched for something else but I'm going back.

Very OTT though

It is. That's why I love it.

It's like a modern political version of Clueless 😂

I finished it last night. Can't wait for the next season and more Bette Midler.

I thought it was very crap.
Sorry everyone.

I'm enjoying it - very original. Loved the Martina Navratilova cameo! I think you have to go in bearing in mind it's a comedy and meant to be a bit ridiculous.

I was a bit errrr what when we started watching it but now I’m really into it. Batshit and fun and I love gwynnie poking fun at herself.

I really enjoyed it.

It was absurd yet strangely watchable. I ended up watching the whole thing within a few days.

I don’t really get it but I like it!

Well put. Lucy Boynton reminded me of Emma Roberts, (but with more talent). I also think Ben Platt, who played Payton, is very talented.

Yes, bonkers but loved it. Particularly loved Gwyneth & Martina.

Watched one episode and loathed everyone in it so gave up.
