Mr Spock meets Gloria Steinem

I have refrained from writing additional IMDB reviews in a largely irrelevent gesture of support for the Hollywood writers strike. So it is fitting to review this exquisitely funny, real and fresh show, which is all about the intelligence, bravado and sheer guts it takes to identify and fight "the system" (read stupid, narcissistic, spoiled rich - usually men- who pathologically measure the size of you-know-what by counting the meaningless numbers of zeros in their bank account - sound familiar SAG AFTRA?) Oops... I might be slipping inadvertently into the main character here- YOU get the effing coffee! - boy that felt good to say. I love the concept of the pretty blonde with a steel trap mind who logically and relentlessly refuses to pander for crumbs or second place, set in super-conformist 1950's US. I hope those on the other side of the equation take this as an opportunity to see how pitiful their greed and power games renders them. And a nod to Apple, (this is on Apple TV) whos Chief Executive took a paycut during covid rather than fire workers. History will denigrate those so-called recent leaders who went out of their way not just to fire workers but deliberately humiliate them by doing so en masse during a routine zoom meeting. You deserve all of the smarmy yes men and women thst remain around you. Super relevant, timely and fun entertainment thank you!
