Review of Dirty John

WOW!!! I just finished watching season 2 and I am speechless. I had no idea the brilliance of Amanda Peet. I remember her in Saving Silverman, in which she was hilarious, but her character had no depth nor was she meant to. Her portrayal of Betty Broderick was stunning. I normally do not watch mini series or very many TV shows as I feel they're tedious and drawn out, but this 9 episode journey through the beginning and aftermath of the Broderick marriage was perfectly done. Not an episode, scene, or line is wasted. Even the cinematography was so well done it makes you feel completely submerged into the wonderful misogynistic world of the 1980's. Not to mention hair, makeup, costume was immaculate and brought the story alive. I still feel emotional after watching it yesterday. Casting was perfect. It would be an absolute crime if this series does not receive an Emmy or Golden Globe.
