Wow. Good thing there are only 5 episodes left in Criminal Justice. I've never seen a more unlikeable protagonist.
Interesting on the lawyers in the UK. First thing this winger should have been told - LIFT UP YOUR HEAD AND STOP CRYING, YOU PANSY.
And, I assume there's no such thing as "I object"? The winger's lawyer never objects. Is that because she is incompetent?
Stone, in both the BBC and HBO (The Night Of) versions, are outstanding. The other actors are forgettable. Some of the witnesses - the ME, e.g. - in the BBC version are excellent. They actually know how to act.
I don't know WHERE the BBC and HBO versions got their leads from, but both should go back to acting school. They both stink.
All in all, a forgettable series, both on HBO and the BBC.
Lucky for both of them that they got off. They didn't deserve it.
