For me, the hook to watching this series is getting the answer to the question "Why is there a Netflix series about this particular criminal as she is the most uncharismatic person I have ever seen?" Yes, she consistently dresses elegantly and tips in $100 bills, but that's about it. She is one of the most unpleasant and cringeworthy people to be around with. So I keep sticking around to find out what her magic is. It becomes apparent by episode 5 that there is no redeeming value to her other than the clothes and $100 tips. The epitome of shallow. By then I am neck-deep in this series, and unwisely decide to suffer through 4 more hour-long episodes just to finish what I start. Episode 8 is so bad. Two stars for Julia Garner's effort, but the rest of this production (music, editing, camera work) and all of the other characters spew out nothing but drivel.
