The TVI Take
The first season of HBO's adaptation — five Monterey women, a murder, and the events preceding it. Exceptional craft — Jean-Marc Vallée's direction and the performances from Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, and Shailene Woodley are all exceptional.
Educational about domestic abuse in wealthy communities. The finale is very strong.
