I can't be the only one watching The People.v. OJ

[mmp]

I wish it were on netflix and I could binge watch the whole damn thing. Be use living through it wasn't enough......

I think it's pretty good. There's some cheesiness/overdramatization but I think Courtney B. Vance and Sarah Paulson are especially strong. I've also been enjoying John Travolta just because it's been so long since I've seen him in anything and he's playing a relatively unlikeable character. Interesting. I don't know what OJ was like in his prime or even during the trial (I was 11/12 at the time and living overseas) so I can't read whether or not Cuba's doing a good portrayal or not.

I am watching. I am not sure how I feel about it - on one hand, Sarah Paulson is really good. But on the other hand, they are totally overplaying the Kardashian factor. I just couldn't get past the kids chanting "Kardashian" when Robert was on TV this past episode during the Bronco chase.

Well, I wouldn't know good acting if it bit me, so can't comment on that. I'm easily entertained. 
OJ was a stud in his hey day. Stud. Full of charisma and had a huge, star presence. So much so that people couldn't fathom he murdered her. To be fair, they aren't showing a portrayal of OJ premurder, when he was Mr. Charm,  so I guess Cuba doesn't  have to portray that side.
I'm over the Kardashian kids. It's forced. But I do like Ross Geller as Robert Kardashian.

I think the difference is that the real OJ was so charismatic that he made you WANT to believe he didn't do it. Cuba isn't getting that across. No big deal, I'm still watching it like this is my job.
I can't get enough of this damn show.
I'm way too vested in this. Lol.

ETA: just watched last night's episode. So good. Marcia Clark's last line at the end of the episode.. Lol.
