Lack of good storyline.
Platicsco
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Grimossfer
Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

I just watched several episodes of this show, mostly through ON DEMAND, and I have to say "so far so good". I laughed out loud through all of them, and that's not easy to get me to do. I mostly chuckle, smirk and think "yeah that's cute", but not here. Anyway, I've never heard of Donny Deutsch before, so I have no history or points of reference to go by. However, I love this character, and I especially love his supporting cast, especially his producer who tells him off through his ear prompt.For those who don't know, Donny hosts a daytime talk show which in real life would be just as awful as the ones in real life. This is a great spoof of the genre, and you'd occasionally see cameos of real life talk show hosts playing themselves and being genuinely funny. I've read some really nasty reviews of the series and I couldn't disagree more. This is right up there with LOUIE, JIM GAFFIGAN SHOW and even SEINFELD. Seinfeld didn't have the love-fest it ended up with upon its inception. It needed time to grow and to grow on an audience. So if you hear someone put it down, or read a negative review of it, ignore all that and give it a chance.

I just had the misfortune of watching an episode of "Donny!" Let me tell you, it's awful. It's almost as if Donny is so incredibly conceited he thought filming fictionalized versions of what are likely his real-life fantasies would be entertaining to viewers. Spoiler alert: It's not. There is nothing of any substance to be found in this. I'd be shocked if it lasts more than a season. It always amazes me how with as much great talent as there is out there, something like this gets the green light. It's sad, really.It's not the sexual content I have a problem with, it's how unrealistic it all feels. There's just something that seems so false about what they're putting out. As I mentioned before, it feels like Donny is just trying to live out his fantasies on screen. I can imagine a conversation that took place between Donny and some friends at lunch in Beverly Hills or somewhere, "Oh, hey...You know who's hot? Christie Brinkley. Man, I've wanted her since I saw her in that little red Ferrari in 'Vacation,' we should totally try getting her on the show. Think she'd do it? Of course she'd do it." Gag.Do yourself a favor, pass on this drivel.
