Review of Monarch

Monarch (2022)
1/10
It's getting worse!

Warning: Spoilers
Episode 3 is even worse than the first two. I really wanted to like this show. I have enjoyed hearing some of the old country songs that they have sung, but that is about it. Now in episode 3, two characters are breaking into song instead of speaking to each other. I think this flop is a case of telling not showing. They tell us repeatedly that the mother and father had a perfect marriage, but Susan Sarandon is dead in episode 1. We never see it. Their family is the first family of country music, but we only know that because of the opulent and stupid things they do. Trace Adkins can act, but this show gives him lines like ,"I'm a bad man." It just makes him look like a bad actor. I really, really wanted to like this which is why I gave it 3 episodes. I'm done.
