The Undoing (2020 HBO)
#1
I think they made this show specifically for DM. The filmmakers made DM's OG Redhead Crush Nicole Kidman look luminous throughout the show. Lots of cleavage and side-boob revealing dresses. Naked shower scenes. Close ups of those penetrating blue eyes. Plus, it's curly haired Nicole rather than straight hair. And she sings the theme song. Why hasn't DM reviewed this already.

David E. Kelly executive produces this tale of murder on the upper east side amongst the beautiful people of New York. Kidman is a therapist. Hugh Grant plays her oncologist husband. Donald Sutherland is Nicole's father. The first episode centers on the fund raiser for Kidman's kid's elite school. The one oddity is the young mother who joins the group of friends to help with the fundraiser. She is completely out of place. Her son attends the school on scholarship. She lives down in Harlem. She seems to have issues.

And then the murder happens. Things are not what they seem. 

I really like this new era of Hugh Grant's acting career.

I don't have HBO. Nor Disney+. Nor Netflix. Just Amazon Prime at the moment and we're debating about keeping it. We're on a low budget.

Totally agree on Grant. And that I need to see this to get my Nicole dose.

Does this pre-date the use of mannequins for kissing scenes?

I wouldn't have the HBO either, but because we have an iPhone it's part of the package. The same goes with Apple+. Once those deals go away, I'm getting rid of them.

My ninjas have abandoned me so I'm way behind on a lot of shows. 

That's the thing about ninjas. They're invisible. That's what 'nin' means. 

I need new ninjas.

The Undoing continues. Everyone continues to be suspect, especially Hugh Grant. Donald Sutherland is the best as the evil and rich father in law. But there is still something super shady about Nicole Kidman. The costumers and make-up people continue to make her look flawless.

The show continues to keep me guessing.

And then the Undoing was done. The biggest mystery? What fabulous coat would Nicole Kidman wear in this episode.

The show did keep me guessing about who was the murderer until about halfway through the last episode. Two characters met and I immediately could map out the rest of the show.

It kind of ended on a whimper. But once the murderer is revealed there's not a lot left to do.

I do think Hugh Grant did a really good job. Donald Sutherland really needs to get an eyebrow wrangler. Nicole Kidman does have great coats. At least her character does.

Compared to Nicole, we all need eyebrow wranglers.

The latest incarnation of Hugh is cool.
