Tyrant

The synopsis seemed to indicate that this could be watchable (if not a good watch).

It probably would be if there was a tad bit less stupidity in the first few episodes (after which I deleted the entire season).

Bassam (Adam Rayner) is a sad man with serious issues which I honestly couldn't care less about. The character evokes only ridicule and no sympathy. It's difficult to take one seriously when one throws a tantrum at being given the option to sit in the First Class of an otherwise empty plane. It's fine if you don't want to sit, but don't get all hysterical.

Molly (Jennifer Finnigan) is an annoying cunt of a character. In the few episodes that I did manage to sit through, Molly has the WORST lines. Her husband opting NOT to dance anymore with his brother - somehow merits an elaborate explanation (*Rolls eyes). Her insistence that her husband talks to her (and his father) about something that is clearly painful for him (and happened 20 odd years ago), shows just how out of touch she is.

Samuel and Emma are extremely lame characters. I just don't find them believable.

I wouldn't recommend this idiotic series to anyone.
