Inferior to O&O
This was sadly inferior to One and Only, but it will still be mostly satisfying for anyone who watches O&O first. RJL is handsome and has a pretty good command of the screen, but his character is soooo frustrating. I saw someone else comment that they're trying to imply that because of his hyper intelligence he may be on the spectrum. I haven't read the book, so I really don't know the intent. But whatever the reason they had for making his character so stiff and backward, it didn't really work. Again, every annoying thing is this basically gets a pass if you watched the first series, because it just makes you want to see them together, no matter what. But my main point is they didn't really do RJL justice. In the first series he is so upright and stalwart, and has lived the hardest life possible and still somehow was more human and sympathetic than in the modern one.
