I'd rather not name my alma mater but you are right about UCD and Trinity harbouring certain types.

However in my experience they don't have a monopoly.

My tolerance has lowered with age 🙂

Pussyhands

The ads for this are horrific. They make the lead female character look like she has learning difficulties.

Blonde woman

There's nothing I should know about Nick is there?

Face on lead character like she just woke up from a coma

....no

Man with long hair

I never stopped loving her

Lead female character

You still love her?

Yank lady links hands with lead female character who reciprocates

Main female character with a face on her like a child after seeing a magician making a rabbit disappear

It's all a bit odd. The man and woman look to be in their 30's and their fiddling about with college aged girls.

I think that is the point of the series, discovering polygamy.

The American comes across as the most normal, and seems to at least deliver her lines. The rest of them seem to just whisper everything and look confused.

It's like their acting lecturer showed the class the episode of upstart crow where a new actor with intense eyes is brought into audition.

He is handsome & he is Taylor Swift's latest squeeze the character is a troubled introvert and is attracted to another introvert.

She nervously sits on the bed as she flirts with him via text, and she replies "can we do this in person".

The camera focus on her nervous smile, then to her hands and phone, she stands up she and looks at the door nervously, the camera dodging around the actress.

He knocks and comes to her room.

And then for some reason the director tells her to act as if she's about the fall about the place laughing. She has this hysterical face pulled.

As is the case with a lot of literary fiction imo. Can work in print with a good author but no so much on film.

It could be her character in the book that she has a nervous shy disposition. I am not sure what the hysterical face means, it kind of through me.

What an absolutely shockingly bad series! Same thing every episode & as for that ending…..!

Man Vs ManUre

It’s so crappy and boring compared to NP. Leading actress, Tommy Tiernan and the blondie wife is okish in it, the rest awful especially mr Taylor Swift and the Irish music wan with the ever present huge smile and knashers.
