Amazon Pilots 2015: wicked comedy about a fallen supermodel - swipes on the superficial world of models including

Action: Salem Rogers (Leslie Bibb) has the best times behind itself: In 1998, she was once the model year, but in recent years she has spent in a rehabilitation clinic. Just on the day on which it comes out there, they studied for their former assistant (Rachel Dratch), it has terrorized those days from dawn to dusk. So the unequal women are brought together again, and each has a different view of it: Salem wants her assistant Agatha back, but now writes books as a life coach and wants Salem to help bounce back. True to the motto, one hand washes the other, be bitching at them in Hollywood until a trooper ...

Background: "Salem Rogers: Model of the Year 1998 'was produced by Amazon Studios. As a director Mark Waters worked, the case of Freaky Friday and Mean Girls for Lacher already caused among other things and a similar sense of humor rail strikes this series also, albeit to a more adult audience than TeenGirl. Screenwriter Lindsey Stoddart fell interestingly, so far as an actress (eg Desperate Housewives) on. The pilot has a length of 29 minutes.

Criticism: the act itself sounds underwhelming. But as with so many comedy series there is indeed more to the AS. And it works wonderfully here. Great actresses know convince (eg in a supporting role Jane Kaczmarek of Malcolm in the Middle). The production standard is very high, and luckily there are real scenes, and it is at original locations so no Lacher turned off camera with cheap sets. The heart of the series is the corruption of the fashion business. There is in the nature of Salem many swipes at Models. She's a narcissistic, disgusting "girls", which, completely naked below, for example, just to get attention on the catwalk. The rocking soundtrack is also great.

Conclusion: the pilot is really funny, but certainly not yet revealed the full potential of the premise. Leslie Bibb and Rachel Dratch play the bitch Ange and the different lifestyles simply superb. It would be nice to see how the two dissimilar women would actually develop something like girlfriends in an entire season. Bitter swipes on the business model included please. But in order to turn it into a series order, many people are probably the easy laughs missing with laughter from the off, so that they know when they are allowed to laugh. It will be fascinating if the series of Amazon Studios is continued or not.
