Yes, Elliot Page transitioned, but after his coming out he said he'll continue to play Vanya.
Don't understand the need to have Vanya transition too. It does nothing for the story and it was completely half-assed. Short hair and a new name. That's it? Come on.loading replies
@mrlucky96 how exactly did it ruin the show if you're not transphobic??
The people complaining about Vanya transitioning to Viktor should probably just stop watching and spare the rest of us. It doesn't take away from the story, the show's literal creator embraced it, why can't that be good enough?

@bestivus It is good enough, but sadly people still choose to be hateful even though it's 2022. I personally thought the way they did it was pretty tasteful and didn't take away from the show at all - clearly there were conversations about this behind the scenes and they did it in a way that was positive for Elliot and the production team.
(I've been reporting bad comments for bigotry and blocking people, and would recommend anyone to do the same tbh.)
Wasted comedic actor potential. Extremely surprised the Cheers guy and the female lead would stoop to the level of Good Place -- seems like the next stop for them will be as contestants on "Dancing with the Stars"... ;-)
Generic, predictable, unfunny and full of cliches -- seems very much like a Hulu-only series, which is likely where the remaining episodes will stream once low ratings result in early network TV cancellation.

@chaztv Wow what a knowing inside opinion. What top of the pops Hollywood producer is commenting here?
Buzz off. I dare you to watch all of season 1 and say its predictable and full of cliches. Notice I didn't say "generic" or "unfunny" like your review did. If you did watch the whole season and still felt that way then you know what I can't blame ya. Different strokes for different folks ya know. Please please please prove me wrong. Watch more than just a few eps and have that same opinion that let you talk about Ted Danson and Kristen Bell in terms that you felt so high and above you didn't know their names. BS. You knew and you know. I'm not amused. I get that if you didn't like the show you would dismiss Ted Danson as "the cheers guy" but guess what it feels just a wee bit sexist to say "the female lead." You know damn well her name. Say that you're extremely surprised that the guy from Cheers and the girl from Veronica Mars is stooping to this level I'd brush you off as "not a fan." But to say "the Cheers guys and the female lead" is such an idiotic burn. Her name is right there on the page you're typing on. this review really strikes me as a Johnny TV who thinks he's better than everything on and will say what he want based on one episode or a trailer or a poster and move on. Not convinced.
Also, I'm burying the lede here....but watch the first season and say it's predictable and full of cliche. If you still can please please please let me know what shows this is ripping off to be predictable so I can watch those too. It won't happen.
I've seen Batman Begins yesterday for the first time and I didn't like it that much. i rated it 5/10. thought this one might be better but it didn't. i've watched the first hour then jumped right into the last 20 minutes or so. I just couldn't watch more. clearly, it wasn't made for me.

If you didn't actually watch the whole video, then why you rate it ?

VIP7Snorefest.. gave up after a couple of episodes. UPDATE: After giving it another shot (thanks to those that commented on my comment) I really like this show!! Half way through the second season... I went back to the begining and watched from episode one. I can only sumise that I got this show mixed up with another.

@speeddemon It's slow in the beginning, but things begin to pick up around ep 5.

@speeddemon if you can endure season one, things get better during the second season and season three is absolutely mind-blowing and it's sci-fi at its best! Trust me, I almost quit this show after watching the whole first season. Boy, am I glad I kept on watching!
