I'm not usually one for incredibly dramatic soap opera shows but this one pulled me in. At first glance and in any advertisements, it looks like a stereotypical Hollywood soap opera of a 15 year old's imagination. To my surprise, it was not. There are definitely scenes that have that feeling, but they are few and far between.
The show follows a Hollywood star, with a past of his own, offering a struggling waitress a contract for fortune and fame and 10 million dollars if she will agree to date, marry, and have a future with him, among other stipulations. Obviously she agrees, or else there would be no show, and the story begins.
The show then begins on a complicated and twisted path that leaves the audience guessing and holding their breath for whatever comes next. The actors make the story believable and interesting and are enjoyable to watch on screen. While slightly predictable, the show offers an inside look at Hollywood and an exaggerated "true" story of the real pitfalls.
I found it incredibly interesting binged all twenty episodes in a few days. I'd say give it a chance if you're trying to figure out if you want to watch it or not, but give it a few episodes to develop.
