Just finished the show and was left with zero emotions. I was so excited when the trailer was released, esp to have more LGBTQ shows on air, and though the production and cast are great, esp Julianne Moor, the script is not good and does a disservice to the show. The pacing is weird all around and very bad in the last episode, the dialogue was not good and also felt weirdly cut and blocking during the dialogue was strange at times too. Someone else mentioned the mixing for the dialogue and I can only agree, had to watch most of it with sub titles.
Also, for an LGBTQ show to still perpetuate the "one of the lesbians has to die" trope was certainly a choice, when there are only 2 lesbians.
All in all I am down for funny-and-dramatic shows, such as BEEF, but sadly this one did not deliver though it had good parts/moments in between that if strung together by a stronger script would have made a great show. Please hire better writers. The LGBTQ community especially deserves better with the few shows that actually focus on complicated queer characters.
