Review of Get Shorty

Get Shorty (2017–2019)
5/10
Season 1 is great, but the 2d season ruined the series:(
19 November 2018
When watching the 1st season I was hooked and very happy that something decent has come out. But season 2 was a big dissapointment:( Each line ended in a very unlikely and even cheesy way. And, the whole plot is quite unrealistic...How is it possible that 2 uneducated thugs make their way into Hollywood through assault and extortion without anybody taking any measures? Why did none of the attacked actors, producers or agents ever go to the police? And why would people even deal with these "producers" if they are completely unprofessional and know nothing about filmmaking? This seems strange and by the end of the season 2 we see one of the gangsters, enjoying family life and becoming an actor's agent! This guy is a murderer and is almost illiterate with a very low IQ, snapping at everybody and killing every other person. What was the message the script writers wanted to convey? The other protagonist enjoying recognition for his "genious" movie in prison also seems vanilla... Must say that Amara de Escalones has been a great character throughout both seasons! Thank you, Lidia Porto for great acting!:)
