American Crime Story: The People v. O. J. Simpson

Australian Networks have boasted it's the biggest week in TV, and they are right the universally acclaimed and star studded cast of American Crime Story: The People v. O. J. Simpson has just aired, and it's fucking brilliant!

The cast, flawless, the camp undertones used by Ryan Murphy, the real footage to recreate the era at the start, the soundtrack used to bring the tension, I was beyond excited this show lived up to all the hype.



John Travolta is brilliant and creepy all at once, Sarah Paulson has been given (finally) a better role in a Ryan Murphy series (her role in Hotel was all sorts of fucked up) and Cuba Gooding Jr as OJ the lead, beyond brilliant.

This is the new show of the season I was waiting for. Billions is great, Supergirl is easily the bet superhero show on TV (right now), Scream Queens was super camp and had it's moments and Blindspot is easily doing the best of all the new runs of shows.

In the Golden Era of TV Ryan Murphy's name comes up for some of the groundbreaking work he did on Glee, Nip/Tuck for a camp modern soap opera and his work in bringing the new storytelling of American Horror Story.

I am so excited to add this series to my Summer/Autumn watch list, brilliant first episode and I cannot wait till episode two.
