It's tough to tell if this is going to add up to a coherent story, but I'm really hopeful that Jim Carrey and Michel Gondry will create a series that's worth spending so much time with these characters' pain.
A marvelous character study and Showtime's best series in years.
I'm going to keep watching this show, with its wizardly director and mythopoeic lead actor, because I'm confident that at some point it will drastically illuminate the nature of existence-yours and mine.
Bold, provocative and at its core heartbreakingly endearing, it borrows from the original mold -- and then breaks it.
Langella, in particular, is remarkable as a man who is unfeeling and perfectly comfortable with it. If and when Jeff becomes more credible, and not just a fairy tale persona, the entire ensemble will be solid as a rock.
Kidding is weird. It's tough to know what to make of it. This is not a complaint.
